I bet if you scratch a lot of folks here you will find former cadets...underneath.

I was in Cadets.... well 30 years ago now... so it was a bit different then.. we were typically issued rifles when we went on exercise... sure they were Enfields...

But sometimes they issued FNs But only when the Local Reserve unit NCOs were accompanying us in the field... we used to dig in.. do patrols and attacks....

And we went to the range and fired FNs 3 times a year.....

For god's sake they even gassed us once! ( but they got in a lot of crap for doing it )

Cadets were conceived as a stepping stone into the service.... it still is to a degree in the UK... but in Canada... I really don't see the point anymore.

Politically correct thinking and the drive of liberal society is systematically wringing all the adventure out of youth....

Former cadet, current CIC

I try my best to keep the kids active at my corp, and now that I'm taking over as XO come September (Chippy is leaving for BMQ) I'll be getting even more options as to what we can do...

Under the radar

sweet my officers didnt really let us do alot of stuff we had alot of bush outtings oh wait i forgot im not alot to call them that anymore field outtings phew that was a close one

lemme ask as a CIC that means you have probly been camp staff at one point so does this seem a lil to much to you?

during the search of my stuff when i first got thier they took my wallet because inside my wallet was my grandfathers regimental badge from korea and i keep it on me as my little good luck charm/keepsake and they took the whole wallet and didnt say why i couldent have it im assumeing it had to do with the badge cuz the wallet wasent like inapropriate or something just a regular black wallet

Yeah that would be overstepping their authority. At the most, all they should've been allowed to do is give you a good firm grilling and confiscate the medal until you did your out-routine.

Like I said before though, there's a forum called Cadet-World which is perfect for this sort of discussion.

Funny you should say that seeing that this thread was put to rest three months ago.

Yea, way to bring back an old thread..

Also, you ain't Airborne so change your name.. maybe a new avatar too

I got out of cadets about three months ago...Sorta glad I did....Surprised they don't teach us how to bake cookies and make friggin cakes now....there isn't much fun stuff left...

And every time I heard a cadet....More so one of my Sergeants say we were soldiers....I wanted to slap the bastard, and if he said it to someone(Like some people while on a trip to Greece) I'd clearly tell them what he was saying is total BS...And we don't get any "Combat training" we just learn how to run around in a field with a map and compass.....Woohoo.

He's 16 and interested in our armed forces. Impersonation by young people is a complement. I'm 35 and do Vietnam renactment. Do you have a problem with that?
