AFX PREP

Last weekend, 66 ACU took part in this year's joint AFX Prep activity with members of Alpha Company.

The purpose of this activity was to prepare members of Tasmania Battalion for our upcoming Annual Field Exercise by reinforcing prior learning and skills through navigation, tactical movement in the field, team building, and much more.

Members were also given exposure to the responsible carry of innocuous weapons, and weapon safety principles.

Weapons being carried by the cadets are permanently modified and unable to be fired. Their use is for training purposes to engender good weapons discipline and safe handling, and add complexity and challenges in the ex*****on of tasks.

AAC TAS BN - July Courses

Good luck to our cadets who are heading off to attend the Australian Army Cadets TAS BN July Courses camp.

Over the coming week they will have the opportunity to develop their leadership, teamwork and military skills while challenging themselves in a rewarding training environment alongside cadets from across the state.

These courses provide valuable experiences that help prepare our cadets for future leadership roles within the AAC, while also offering exciting STEM opportunities that encourage innovation, problem solving and technical skills development.

We wish all participants the very best and look forward to hearing about their experiences and achievements when they return.

👍 National volunteer week🪖

While Army Cadets is all about the cadets, every Unit, Company, Battalion, and activity relies on a dedicated team of Army Cadet Staff working behind the scenes to support and guide them.

At 66 ACU, we currently have two ACS, with another joining soon, and we’re always looking for more people to join the team!

LT(AAC) Scarborough is our current Interim Officer Commanding (OC). He has been with 66 ACU for four years and has supported numerous activities during that time. Before becoming an ACS member, LT(AAC) Scarborough was a cadet at 60 ACU during its time when it was located in Warrane.

2LT(AAC) Bowerman is our current Administration Officer. She’s usually the one behind the camera or helping cadets prepare for upcoming camps and activities. 2LT(AAC) Bowerman has been with 66 ACU for two years and has also taken part in multiple activities during her time with the unit.

If you’re interested in giving back to the community, developing new skills, and helping support the next generation of young leaders, maybe army cadets is for you. Volunteering with Army Cadets is a rewarding experience, and no prior cadet experience is required.
