This year’s Remembrance Sunday parade was a success. The parade, including our own squadron, marched the usual route through Todmorden from Stansfield Road to the memorial garden, where a sobering service of remembrance took place.

After the service, the parade marched to the Royal British Legion, where a buffet lunch was served.

Monday 31st October will be a parade evening with a difference!!!!

Dress for the evening will be in keeping with the theme of halloween but sensible.

There will be an opportunity to ‘Wrap the mummy’ and perform an alternate drill routine to some interesting music.

Prizes for best outfits!

Congratulations to Cpl Barker, Cpl Butterworth, Cpl Harper and Sgt Wilkinson on completing their qualifying Bronze DofE expedition this weekend 24th & 25th September.  They were part of two larger groups which included cadets from 185(Batley)Sqn.

The teams walked for two days in the Yorkshire Dales area from Bolton Bridge to Cracoe camping overnight in Appletreewick. Despite a bit of damp weather and some interesting navigation choices both teams fullfiled the requirements of the award.

Very well done and congratulations !!

Congratulations to Sam Barker who became the newest corporal on squadron. Commanding Officer Flt. Lt. Price said that Sam’s performance on the recent JNCO course and his positive influence on squadron had all played a part in helping him achieve his promotion.

Welcome to the team Cpl Barker – The real work starts now!!

Congratulations go to Sgt Dan Furminger on obtaining his BTEC in Public Services. The BTEC is equivalent to four GCSE’s at grade A-C and is available to all cadets over 16.
