Cadets and staff recently returned from this years Regional Ex Bronze/Silver Eagle camp.

Our cadets took part in a wide range of challenging and rewarding activities — including radio, shooting, fieldcraft, synthetic flying, drill, leadership, and much more.

A huge well done to all the cadets who attended the camp — your effort and enthusiasm were outstanding throughout.

A special congratulations to Sgt Ramage, who achieved the Grand Slam by being named Best Cadet in all three of his modules: Silver Space, Silver Cyber, and DTC — an unprecedented accomplishment!

The 859 Squadron staff couldn’t be prouder, with nothing but positive feedback from across the camp. Well done, everyone!
