Gold Wings For OC Nash

OC Nash is the first Cadet in the District to achieve Bronze, Silver and Gold Wings for Sea Cadet Aviation.

Congratulations on a job well done Jamie.  

Jamie's full report in his own words of his experience will appear in the next issue of the Newsletter and is hoped it will encourage other cadets to follow suit. 

He did however wish to thank all the sea cadet aviation staff and the instructors from 727 squadron for providing him with such an awesome and helpful experience that has easily helped him decide to pursue flying in the Navy as a career.  

Onwards and upwards as they say Jamie!

South West Area Drill & Piping Competition

South West Area Drill & Piping Competition

A lot of hard work over the last few weeks culminated in a weekend at HMS Raleigh for the South West Area Drill and Piping Competition.  Birmingham Sherbourne and their fellow District Units made up the biggest contingency of the competition. Excellent effort form all involved and although no medals this time we couldn't be prouder and you couldn't have worked harder.  4th for Continuity and 6th for Armed Guard, competition at this level is a very stressful occasion and everyone gave over 100%.
