Over the past few weeks, the cadets of 205 Australian Army Cadet Unit have been busy developing valuable fieldcraft and survival skills.
Training activities have included camouflage and concealment, learning how to construct shelters, and understanding how survival priorities such as shelter, water, and food can change depending on whether conditions are hot or cold. Cadets also explored how to assess a situation and prioritise tasks when things don't quite go to plan in the outdoors.
Despite the wet weather, our cadets showed great determination and resilience, successfully completing their physical fitness modules and continuing to build their teamwork, confidence, and leadership skills.
Well done to all cadets for their enthusiasm and effort throughout the training activities. We look forward to seeing these skills continue to develop throughout the year.
Congratulations to one of our staff members, Scott Whale on being promoted to 2LT.
