On the 5th June 2015, I joined the ACF having never been a cadet and at the time I was actually younger than some of the cadets by a few months. 10 years have flown by and I've dedicated more than a 1/3 of my life to cadets now, wild to think of it like that!π

It's a wrap for 2024 delivery of the Cadet Experience in Scotland. We finished off with 2 days in RCB, team Trg, meeting & PD. The majority of the team are now on their official Christmas leave. Only a few are still soldiering next week. It has been a busy year once again.π¬π§π«‘π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ

Whenever I get asked about my job, I always say that every day is different. Yesterday I had a great day on the range supporting Glenalmond College CCF for their training day, today, I'm 5493 words into an upskilling course assessment
I think it's obvious which day was better...

It's fieldcraft day! Paintballing, laser weapons, model making and stalking.
Even the torrential rain showers aren't dampening the mood of the seniors! π

It is brilliant to see our former Cadet CSM Joseph White receive his Gold DofE Award yesterday at Buckingham Palace.
What a fantastic way to celebrate his hard work and dedication! π

First time planning and running a Battalion camp this weekend. So much was achieved from Basics all the way up to our new CFAVs. The camp was full on with lots of practical training and having the sun made it even betterβοΈ

Happy CFAVs

Great couple of days at the CSO Conference at Frimley Park. Lots of interesting speakers & the opportunity to share knowledge and best practices. With a whole lot of laughter piled in too, we do feel sorry for Susie our manager sometimes π
Some may also say this is #squadgoals

"No plan survives contact with the enemy" - by Sunday (the 2nd day of camp) I was on Plan H (all outwith Bn control).
Adapt and overcome; the cadets smashed it, they learnt lots, had fun and got absolutely battered by the Scottish weather. Sounds like success to meπ

I overpack, I have forever over packed, I will continue to overpack, however the fact I have 5 bags for Spring Camp is bringing a bit of shame. Enough shame to reduce the bags? No.
(I am running expeds for 6 days and bringing all my own kit and food - bit of credit given)
