1/4 Today, Cadets from CACF and ABNCC have been continuing their Fieldcraft Training Exercise at RAF Spadeadam. They woke this morning, following their first night out in their harbour area. It was a chilly night but all were in good spirits this morning after a warm breakfast.

[Cumbria Army Cadet Force @CumbriaACF]

3/4 At lunchtime they received a visit from the Easter Bunny, also known as SMI Harrison! He brought Easter eggs, which went down a treat!
The cadets then moved on to a fighting patrol where they were given orders to carry out a mission to locate and destroy enemy forces.
