Thanks to Sue for this report …
Last Sunday the Abingdon Sea Cadets took part in the annual District Drill and Piping competition and came home with a number of medals and a cup! It was difficult this year as they had new weapons to do the Drill with and no one who knew the drill, so it was all learnt “from the book”. Having said that they were very pleased when they came a decent second to the winning Unit (Banbury). They also came home with Second place in the team Piping and the cup for the Best Dressed Cadet.
Sue asks if any of your used to be Sea Cadets in Abingdon with old photos, memories or artefacts. Contact them on abingdonscc@aol.com as they are trying to write up a history of the Unit.
we are also going on to area, competing in the unarmed squad (normal drill)! i’m proud of this lot, the amount of dedication put in, and determination is great!
we also got presented with the district shooting cup, as we won that in december last year!
