    Army Cadet Summer Training Course Equipment

    couldn't tell you on that one... but I know on the Air side- if you need combats, you'll be issued them. I'd hazard a guess that if its not on your joining instructions, you either don't need it or it will be issued to you at the STC

    Cadets vs Boy Scouts (role, "child soldiers", etc.)

    like I put the link in my last post- that table was thought up after much heated debate and discussion on another forum I frequent. I then took a look at the different program and respective trg and came a to a pretty good equivlancy chart.

    The parade here in Wpg was intense. Really moving especially with the 2 snowbirds and the f18 going from the flyby into the missing man formation. and the FGH  Ghost Sqn parading 12 vehicles including a Sherman tank - all these vehicles maintained and restored by veterans. All the veterans, the...
