CCF Passing Out Parade
The Autumn Term of the Fifth Year is the most demanding in a cadet’s career as they undertake their junior NCO Cadre. A rigourous camp in October is followed by instruction in how to teach, and preparation for lessons in skill at arms and drill, observed and assessed by military examiners. At the end of this first stage of their NCO training, 32 Fifth Year cadets were promoted to Lance Corporal on 23 January in front of the cadets and officers of the Corps and proud parents. Certificates of Merit were awarded to those who particularly excelled in elements of the course: in Skill at Arms to LCpl Baker; in drill to LCpl Barton; and in fieldcraft to LCpl Fogelman. The most improved cadet was LCpl Desai, while LCpl Parr took the shield for Cadre Best Cadet 2019. Congratulations to these and to all who passed so stern a test of character and cadetship and who represent the bright future of the Corps.
