Cadet thread.

While some people leave the ACF because "It's boring and we don't do much" those people are the ones who don't commit, don't pass the subject tests and don't get to the next star level. In a nutshell, the amount of stuff you do depends on tests passed

1 was im for 3 years and the other 1 year -_-

Also, the army cadets that we share our parade hall with vandalised it and most of the Army cadets I've met have been narcissistic twats. Who like to bully who ever they fancy bullying and some cant string a sentence together with out the word f'ing in it at least a few times.Perhaps it's just the 3 squadrons I've met. As I said before I strongly respect the Army cadets but not the bullies.

 
The one who I joined with did hardly anything out side and the local one has an Xbox 1 night every 2 weeks or so.

Again, you'll meet people like that everywhere, even in the ATC. There are chavs everywhere.

Plus the bullies probably joined the ACF because they didn't want to look like pansies in RAF blues and they didn't want to have to care for 4 sets of uniform and 2 pairs of footwear.

 
You don't like bullying but have no problem slagging people off & not to their face
yup sounds like you'll fit right in with the flying panzie Squad ^_^

 
Sorry if I seem dumb, it's just I don't get why so much hate towards the ATC?

The uniform?

 
It's all stemmed from the ATC being snobby towards the ACF and treating the ACF like they're a bunch of oiks. This gave the ATC a reputation of snobbishness and idiocy for thinking one cadet force was better than the other.

Again, this isn't ALL the ATC, that's like me saying:All ACF are bellends and can't stop swearing.

But I think (and hope) that isn't the case, that's all.

You've met three different Squadrons and they've all been the same seems like your tarring all army cadets with the same brush to me

You've got to love the ghurkas :)

We had some attached my army platoon and there idea of a jog was a full on 20 mile round sprint in full gear cause they were bored, so glad I didn't go along :)

They are certainly a hard bunch of guys physically and mentally

 
They make a mean Lamb curry (certified by my Uncle when he was with them in the falklands)

Exactly. Stereotypes are created when somebody meets another person of a particular faith, gender, political persuasion, cadet force etc, doesn't like them, and blabs to their mates about it- and these stereotypes are perpetuated. I know for a fact there are a lot of ATC personnel who aren't snobby little shits but I have met some who were and didn't help to stop this stereotype's perpetuation.

I've also had the misfortune of meeting ACF cadets who were complete dipsticks and couldn't tell the difference between a safety catch and sight adjustment tool, and didn't have the best track with the law- we had one who was done for GBH after he assaulted a pupil at his school with a saw in their DT class. I knew him for a while- he was a class A prick. He got chucked out after his conviction.

Having been one of the so called "twats", sorry, commissioned officer in the RAFVR(T), I can assure you that this is NOT bullshit and that an officer SHOULD be saluted IF they are recognised.

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

If you wanna avoid all this grievance, join the SJA cadets. 7 years I've been there and I still enjoy it!! Also, once you get your AFA, you can go to events, gigs and football matches for free :D (sorry, had to include the other cadets, but no one likes scouts :P )
