Throwback Thursday. At this time of year we would normally be parading and remembering those who fought and died in the Battle of Britain. We are looking forward to parading next year. Never has so much been owed by so many, to so few.

Cadets from 162 regularly take part in Adventure Training and shooting. This can be anything from Clay Shooting to Climbing or Kayaking. This builds confidence, self esteem and teamwork skills. The above pictures are from Wing run camps over previous years. #ThrowbackThursday

At this time of year we normally have cadets starting training with the Wing Road Marching team. Their aim is the Nijmegen Marches. Road Marching is one of the more strenuous activities that the Air Cadets take part in, it helps build resilience and teamwork. #throwbackthursday

Throughout the first Lockdown in March and April, we ran weekly competitions, including fitness, craft, cooking, skills and more. This is one of many ways the Squadron and the cadets have adapted to Covid Restrictions. #ThrowbackThursday
