The King's Lynn Unit was also awarded the Roe Youth Cup by the Royal British Legion, for continuously supporting the Legion in Norfolk. We are very thankful and excited to have won!

Friday the 2nd December was our unit disco! The cadets and staff have worked hard all year and deserved to end 2022 with a fun night, and that was definitely achieved. Many a Christmas jumper was worn and there was even a prize for the best fancy dress.

We wish all cadets and staff a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

A huge congratulations to our cadets who attended the District Football Competition today. The Juniors were awarded first place and will proceed to the Area Competition in January.

Congratulations also to Cadet Archie who won Player of the Tournament, too.

We are incredibly proud to have achieved a Burgee, a top efficiency award, in our Unit Review Inspection. This judges the unit's performance for over the past 12 months, and this is the first time we have achieved a Burgee in nearly 10 years.

Petty Officer Kurt Massen said, "I would like to thank each and every person that is part of TS Vancouver for their work and support to earn the unit these fantastic achievements. Here is to another one next year."
