Tonight we returned to Squadron HQ for the first time in five months. It was great to be back and cadets had a great time with some leadership exercises, and IET training.

There were Leading Cadet badges for cadets Pattemore and Connor, with FS Pilkington receiving his Silver Duke of Edinburgh Award.
