Naval Acquaint Course

On the 13th November, 4 cadets (LC Pooler, OC Vaites, CDT Lettinga and CDT Collins) went to SCTC Raleigh for a Naval Acquaint course, where they experienced lots of new things including fire fighting and sea survival. For some of the cadets it was their first time on a National Course away from home, but all cadets came back with certificates and a big grin on their face!

This year, Nottingham Unit took part in the Remembrance Day Parade on the Embankment in Nottingham. There was a fantastic turn out from the cadets who had spent some of the weekend adding the final touches to their uniforms and also learning about why we remember.

APO (SCC) J Hunsley carried the standard for the unit and was featured on the front page of the Nottingham Post.
