Cadets of 2358 (Ferndown) Squadron spent the evening of the 14th March celebrating their achievements throughout the year of 2015. During the Squadrons Annual Presentation Evening the Cadets efforts were recognised by Wing Commander Toth, OC Dorset & Wiltshire Wing ATC.
During the evening, Special Guests and Parents were enthralled with personal accounts of activities that the Cadets themselves had taken part in. Cadet Dennis and Cpl Brown delivered an exciting presentation on participating in Regional sports. Cpl Brown spoke about his experiences during Annual Camp, Cpl Way spoke about 2358 (Ferndown) Squadron’s gruelling Section Commanders course & finally FS Payne delivered an excellent presentation on the Qualified Aerospace Instructors Course.
The Newly Appointed Office Commanding, Pilot Officer Kevin Haywood took great pleasure in awarding the Cadets the certificates throughout the evening, passing the honour of handing over the awards to OC Wing. And of all the awards the two most sought after, best Cadet 2015 was awarded to Cadet Fitzgerald and the best NCO 2015 was awarded to Cadet Flight sergeant Conner.
The Cadets should be extremely proud of themselves for their continued efforts and ongoing success, Officer Commanding 2358 looks forward to next years for more of the same.
