Another busy day with 1074 (Ellesmere Port) Squadron collecting for Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal. So proud of the commitment of the Cadets to support this event each year and much thanks to all those who have donated to the appeal.

On a cold damp day in November, 32 Cadets & accompanying Staff from Sector 1 of Merseyside Wing, travelled to the National Memorial Arboretum in Burton-on-Trent, where they paid their respects to those who have served in all conflicts & who gave their all. We will remember them.

A cold & somewhat wet day out on M Range at Altcar Training Camp yesterday, but ultimately very successful as we ran through multiple practices using the 25 and 100 metre firing points. It’s been a while since I’ve ran one of these as the RCO & it was great to be back out there.

A busy but enjoyable weekend for me has just passed at Altcar Training Camp, having attended parade and sword drill courses under instruction of our Wing Warrant Officers, hoping to be ready to hold a place on the Wing Review next year.
