Today, for the first time, a remembrance was held at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, with more than 60 people in attendance plus 13 Cadets from Merseyside Wing who paraded in honour of past service personnel who have fallen in defence of our country.
The last few weeks have been busy for the Wing Radio Team with multiple courses.
A Silver Advanced Voice Procedures (AVP) Course to teach Cadets how to set up & control a radio network. All 9 Cadets were successful with 3 of them gaining the full Silver Radio Award.
Next were Bronze Radio & Cyber Communications. Over
3 days, 22 Cadets passed the Radio Operator Course to get the Bronze Radio badge, 14 passed the Bronze Cyber Course, 9 gained the Bronze Cyber badge, 2 passed the Silver Cyber qualification & 11 gained the Silver Radio badge.
Congratulations to the staff and cadets who attended the @MerseysideWing Blue Radio Assessor Course today - all of whom passed! 🎉🎉📡
This will enable more squadrons throughout the wing to run their own Blue Radio courses!

Congratulations to CWO Ashcroft following his Wing Appointment as Deputy Radio Officer. This is a first for Merseyside and a historic moment, whereby we have a Staff Cadet within a WSO position. I hope you will join me in congratulating and supporting him fully in his new role.
