This week, the CCF was proud to take Mr Thomas’s first CCF Parade, welcoming him as our Head of CCF.  This involved a Guard of Honour, which is a military tradition showing respect to the individual for which the parade is being held. Cadet Warrant Officer Loy (Lower Sixth), Head of Corps, led the parade, overseen and trained by Major Ale.

Along with the Guard of Honour, both the CCF Standard (carried by Cadet Flight Sergeant Davies) and the Royal British legion Standard (carried by Cadet Sgt Woods) were present.

Major Millbery, the Contingent Commander, said: "It was both a privilege and a pleasure to see our growing CCF in uniform on parade, paying their respects. We look forward to many more opportunities in the future."
