35 Army Cadet Unit - Broadmeadows

14/06/2026

🏆 Congratulations to 37 Army Cadet Unit Albury-Wodonga for taking out the Intranos and Silver Bullet trophies this year.

Whilst our teams from Broadmeadows didn’t win this year, they displayed a high level of teamwork and camaraderie throughout the weekend, well done!

35 will return in 2027 and reclaim the Silver Bullet!

It’s a cold morning at Puckapunyal but nothing an open fire can’t fix!

33 Battalion Super Weekend (PM)

Our two teams have closed out the day with quick decision exercises, physical training and command post set up.

The quick decision exercises removed the key leadership positions from the teams to see how the cadets would react in an emergency first aid scenario.

Command post set up was new to some of our cadets and there are definitely some lessons learnt about the right way up for the tent canvas!

33 Battalion Super Weekend (AM)

The two teams from 35 ACU have completed the activity rotations for the morning.

Cadets undertook the Cadet LF 1 and Cadet LF 2 shoots under Army supervision in the Weapon Training Simulation System. Their scores will go towards determining the top overall section and top individual firers.

Following the shoot, both teams were assessed in drill by the Battalion RSM.

Great opportunity for cadets thinking about applying for university entry.

In Victoria, La Trobe University has the Aspire program which recognises cadet experience and the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.

Did you know that some universities recognise your cadet experience and Duke of Edinburgh awards boosting your chances of selection?

The adult volunteers are often doing hard work behind the scenes and in their spare time making sure activities go ahead for the cadets.

They are the centre of gravity, without whom the program would not run.

Thank you to the Officers of Cadets and Defence Approved Helpers who enable the cadets.

VOLUNTEERS WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Behind every successful activity, field exercise, and leadership lesson is a team of dedicated volunteers giving their time, experience, and support to help shape the next generation of Army Cadets across Australia.

To all Army Cadet Staff (ACS) and Defence Approved Helpers (DAH) - thank you for your continued commitment, mentorship, and service.

Your efforts make a real difference every day.

Last Day of Ex Chimera

The cadets are almost done and will be back with their families soon where they’ll probably need a shower.

Check out our cadets in action and an interesting way to flatten an 11x11 tent prior to folding! 😂

Halfway through Ex Chimera with lots of smiling faces! Our cadets will have lots of stories to share when they come home.

More photos to come.
