Last night cadets from our most recent recruit intake got enrolled into the squadron.

Last week, cadets at 359 were lucky to have a visit from Service Instructor and ex 359 flight sergeant Rob Conner. He taught the cadets about RAF life and how he got into joining. Thank you for coming to visit! #kentwing #aircadets #whatwedo

Over the weekend SGT Ball took part in a Clay Target Shoot at Willow Farm Shooting Grounds near Tenterden.

This is a monthly event and would recommend putting your name down to give it a go!

Well done SGT Ball #aircadets #kentwing #whatwedo

Last night the cadet had a lesson on the use of the Trangier stove. This may have been an excuse for the cadets to cook pancakes!

Some of the results were questionable! #whatwedo #aircadets
