Inspecting Guard

On arrival at school he was met  by the Commanding Officer, Squadron Leader  Titchen and by  the Guard of Honour formed of NCOs and Cadets of the Army and RAF Sections.   After inspecting the guard the Inspecting Officer met the Headmaster and the other unit officers before attending an official luncheon in the Conference Room.

 
In the afternoon a wide variety of Army, RAF and joint activities were viewed including Climbing, Kayaking, Expedition Training and Cooking, Battle Drills, an Obstacle Course, a Radio Exercise and First Aid Incident Training.
 

Before leaving at the end of a long and action-packed day the Inspecting Officer addressed the whole unit in the Queen's Hall.   He complimented the cadets on their high standard of training and their enthusiasm and thanked the NCOs, Officers and other adult staff for their efforts in maintaining such a high standard. He then went for tea in 'The Space' where he had a final opportunity to talk with Senior NCOs from all three sections.
