Unfortunately on his first day after being posted on his battalion he was returned to ...

OK - This thread is getting ridiculous.

Pegasus - May I first ask why your name is such??? Secondly, you are being unreasonable. You DID generalise and your first dig at CCF was not qualified with a 'from what I have seen'. Not impressed.

Whats the point in this??

Clearly the point is being missed, nobody is saying that cadets gives you big advantage when it comes Army,Navy or Air Force Training. What it does help with is basic leadership skills,basic fieldcraft skills, basic weapons handling skills (based on Army PAM 21 ), and basic navigation skills, these ...
