What, even cap badges?

They’ve got cap badges but the prongs don’t fit in the holes in the beret. So now they have lots of cap badges that are broken. Or maybe that’s just my experience recently? :sweat_smile:

Heat them up a bit first. This is not a new issue.

Not quite cap badges. But might try your heating idea as we have loads of the old ones.

We have no badges, we have berets, but no badges, and none came in the last order.

We ended up having to buy a batch.
Pathetic.

Who sells them? Cadet direct debit?

I believe that’s where we got ours.
My adj Bought 25.

Can ask if you defo need to know?

Its a little academic for us right now. We don’t officially have access to our stores due to the refurb.

Night paddling. Makes a familiar venue totally new again!

My Missus went Ape when she found out if been out on the SUP on the dark, she was even more shocked when I then revealed that I’d been doing Night Nav in the hills the last time I went away with my mates. (She’s not an AT lady).

Even the new plastic ones :face_with_raised_eyebrow:?

Yeah, especially in an enclosed space

Plastic cap badges? Really?

The ones that look kind of orange/dull. I think they’re plastic?

Small Win for the day:
Ordered takeout breakfast as I am cleaning and organising the stores. Breakfast arrives 10 minutes early and on opening the bag… An extra sausage! Breakfast was divine and was definitely a ‘order again’!
At least this makes stores organising more bearable!
And then tonight, five hour blanks exercise. Sounds like a pretty good day…

I hope all ACC readers have the best Wednesday they can

Sorry what…

How.

Mid week 5 hours exercise…

CCF? and words.

Indeed.
