🌺 REMEMBRANCE DAY – WE WILL REMEMBER THEM 🌺

Today, Rhyl Sea Cadets joined communities across the nation in remembering and honouring all those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

We remember the brave men and women who fought for our freedom, those who never returned home, those who continue to serve, and the families who carry their memories.

Our cadets and volunteers were proud to pay their respects, laying wreaths, standing in remembrance and showing the respect and pride that being part of the Sea Cadets represents.

We will remember their courage, their sacrifice and their legacy – today and always.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

🌺 Lest We Forget.

🌺 LEST WE FORGET 🌺

Today, we pause, reflect and remember.

We remember the fallen, the brave, the courageous and all those who sacrificed so much so that future generations could live in peace and freedom.

We remember those who never came home, those who returned changed forever, and the families who continue to carry their memories.

From everyone at Rhyl Sea Cadets, we honour their service, remember their sacrifice and will forever be grateful for the freedoms they fought to protect.

Their courage will never be forgotten. Their stories will live on through generations.

❤️ At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

Lest We Forget.

⚓ BEAT THE BLACKOUT – PARADE READY! 💙

Standing on parade can be harder than it looks, especially during longer services and Remembrance events.

We want all our cadets to stay safe, comfortable and feeling their best, so here are a few simple reminders to help prevent feeling faint or unwell.

🥣 Eat a good breakfast.
💧 Keep hydrated.
👣 Keep those toes wiggling and hands moving.
🧠 Stay focused.
🦵 Never lock your knees!

Most importantly, if you start feeling dizzy, faint or unwell, let an instructor know straight away and safely lower yourself to the ground.

Let’s look after ourselves and each other while representing Rhyl Sea Cadets with pride! ⚓💙

⚓ SMART UNIFORM, SMART CADETS! 💙

Looking after your uniform is all part of being a Sea Cadet!

A clean, tidy and well-presented uniform shows pride, respect and commitment – not just to yourself, but to your unit and the Sea Cadets.

We’ve put together a handy uniform care guide to help our cadets keep their kit looking its best.

Remember:
⚓ Keep your uniform clean and pressed.
⚓ Store it properly to avoid creases.
⚓ Keep your boots clean and polished.
⚓ Look after your headwear.
⚓ Check your kit regularly and be parade ready!

Let’s make Rhyl Sea Cadets proud! 💙

LOOK SMART. BE PROUD. REPRESENT RHYL.
