Another great night of training at 21 ACU during our Term 2 Week 4 Parade Night!! 💪

Our Pipes & Drums drummers were hard at work continuing to develop and refine their drumming techniques, showing excellent commitment and improvement throughout the night.

Across the Unit, our troops were busy tackling First Aid training, developing valuable practical skills and knowledge that are important both within Cadets and everyday life.

To conclude, Our Officer Commanding had the privilege of promoting two deserving cadets to the rank of Cadet Lance Corporal — congratulations on your achievement and recognition of your hard work and leadership potential.

ANZAC DAY DAWN SERVICES 🌺

This ANZAC Day, 21 ACU was proud to support our local community by attending two Dawn Services across the region.

Our unit split in half, with cadets and staff attending services at St Marys and Penrith, representing 21 ACU with professionalism and respect at both locations.

Thankyou to cadets and staff who took part in commemorating the service and sacrifice of those who have served our nation.

Lest We Forget.

WHAT A HUGE WEEK FOR OUR 21 ACU CADETS!! 😎

A number of our CADETS have successfully completed the April Marksmanship and STEM courses. These courses provide valuable opportunities for cadets to build confidence, teamwork, and practical knowledge - Well Done to all involved 🎉

A special mention to our company commander,
CUO Stevenson, who has successfully completed the Adventure Training Award (ATA). This is a demanding and rewarding activity that pushes participants both physically and mentally, and we are incredibly proud to see our senior cadet leading by example.

It’s been a big and successful week across the unit and we couldn’t be proud of the effort and achievement shown by our cadets.

We’re looking forward to kicking off Term 2 strong next Tuesday 💪

🌳March Bivouac🌳

Cadets and recruits from 21 ACU participated in our first field exercise for the year. Despite demanding weather, our cadets pushed through and are better for it. For a lot of our cadets it was their first time training and sleeping in the field.

We are very proud of the effort our cadets and NCOs showcased and we are looking forward to the next term’s bivouac.
