We also need one more cadet for the morning shift tomorrow, 30 October, from 10-12. Please contact Capt Ferg if you can fill in. Reminder to all cadets: if you wish to wear your uniform to take part in Remembrance Day activities at your school, you must request permission from the CO in advance. Uniforms may ONLY be worn at approved activities.
