Cadet thread.

[EvilMonkee]

I'll help Cadets - get your ruddy hair cut and shape that beret properly. Saw a pack of them in my town centre the other week and they looked like a sack of shit tied in the middle.

The cadet forces are exactly like the armed forces

They all say there in the best force and regiment, squadron or detachment

Yes there are pillocks in all of them, its just part of the course, there will always be rivalry and who's the best

All forces will do the same but also have there own tasks to do

My simple point is, that without eachother, then we wouldn't get anywhere

Who transports the army abroad ?? The royal navy and royal airforce

And while we're at it - bullies are pathetic people who's life is sh*t, so the only way they can feel better is by making people who they feel deserve it, make that persons life miserable

People who have killed themselves because of bullies, these bullies should be shown the misery and heartache caused to the families of the people who took there lives

I was bullied for 2 years because I had a different accent, most of the bullies are junkies, dole dossers or in jail

I despise bullies

Am in the ACF myself, have been for 21 years in total now, joined when I was 14 and then became an instructor when 18

Now a Sgt Major and also the County Shooting Officer for my county (Cheshire ACF)

All good fun haha

A proper question: Where'd the cadets here get all their kit from?

And specifically to ATC cadets, what kit would you take usually on a Night ex? (We have one every week)

Thanks!

L85s!?????Do you mean L98 cadet rifles?

 

[team flex]

L85s!?????

Do you mean L98 cadet rifles?

No the ones the British army use. Am I being dumb, I'm sure they use l85s

Must be past my bed time

What school do you go to??

 

[mr-bodycounter]

It's true that I doubt you have L85's at your school and more likelyhave the L98 (L98A2 Cadet GP Rifle) which has the major difference of an absene of the ability to toggle between full auto and single auto, that said my school has some L86 LSWs for which the older boys can train on and then use that on their camps in section attacks and so on...

Edit: FULLY auto and SEMI auto, sowwy

 

[team flex]

Ah yes, no auto, however there are some lsws we have. Believe it or not we also used to have an ak47 I was told, a museum needed a secure place. (non functioning).

Caterham school

Do you have a cadet group there? In school?

All my extra kit and bits & pieces have been bought from Cadet Direct. I've also bought stuff from Military1st if it's cheaper there.

For night ops- red light torch is the only night specific piece of kit. Red light doesn't ruin the human eye's natural night vision when the light's shone at it.

As well as this you might want to get a field hat (or 'crap hat') so you don't have to worry about getting your beret dirty/losing the cap badge when you take it out for fieldcraft. The ATC berets are quite light in colour so won't be good for night.

Once you've fully committed and are more experienced and senior within the flight you may want to buy a set of your own webbing. The Osprey MOLLE battle belt set sold on the aforementioned Cadet retailer is perfect in both price and utility.

Yeah army and raf. Just went now actually, over 200 people go

A lot of private schools have a CCF (Combined Cadet Force) unit. They also have some of the worse haircuts going.

Not to mention the drill........

I've seen CCF cadets come up to receive awards from senior officers on parades, 3 times I've seen CCF cadets mince up, take the award and bimble off without shaking the officers' hand or saluting them...

 

[n1ckh]

No offence inteded but I believe the CCF is a lot like the boy scouts/girl guides, they play at what there doing plus with 3 different cadet forces combined I think its difficult as they can't really concentrate on 1 branch of the cadets

 

[M_P]

I stand corrected, twats would expect a salute when in civvies. Those of us in the real military would not.

Didn't realise you were in the army lol
