Foreword Celebrating 150 years of the Cadets The Cadet Forces have, not unnaturally, come a long way from their 1860s origins. They have evolved into unique voluntary youth organisations, offering young people opportunities to develop themselves, to try new adventures and activities, and to learn key lessons in citizenship and the importance of society. But their links to the Armed Forces are as strong as ever. In many areas of the country they are the only face of the Services in the community. They take pride in the values and ethos of the Armed Forces and the lessons of good citizenship and responsibilities these bring. Their essential links with the Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Associations, which help administer and support them, are equally strong. None of this would be possible without the Adult Volunteers, whose commitment, leadership and example underpin the development and success of the Cadet Movement. Their reward Air Chief Marshal Sir Jock Stirrup, is to see the cadets change for the better as they are given a Chief of the Defence Staff head-start in life, and as they develop links with the community in which they live.

  • Kings RAF Booklet
    Combined Cadet Force Royal Air Force A Commissioning Aide Memoire for the Officer Cadre Version 1 “Where else could you learn to fly aerobatics, visit Royal Air Force Stations, tour foreign countries, play sports from local to international level, learn the skills to lead expeditions, become a target shooting marksman, gain your Duke of Edinburgh Awards, canoe through white water, assist your community, join a band, learn aviation subjects, go caving, parachute, climb, sail, ski...? These and much more are readily available to you as a member of the Air Cadet Organization.” Air Commodore Jon Chitty OBE. Introduction The school cadet organisation originates from 1859, when schools at Eton, Harrow, Rugby, Rossall, Felsted, Hurstpierpoint, Winchester and Tonbridge formed armed uniformed units as part of a national reserve to counter a perceived threat from abroad. By 1900, cadet units were established in over 100 schools across the country and in 1908, these units were re-titled the Officer Training Corps (OTC). In 1948, the OTC was renamed the Combined Cadet Force. The aim of the Combined Cadet Force is to provide a framework through which young people develop the qualities of team work, self-reliance, resourcefulness, leadership and responsibility. A weekly programme of military training is designed to give young people at King’s a chance to exercise responsibility and leadership, to provide them with knowledge of our defence forces, and to encourage those who might be interested in becoming officers of the Armed Services. Uniform members of the Combined Cadet Force will regularly stay on Royal Air Forces bases, therefore it is important that cadets are able to demonstrate an awareness of the structure and organisation of the Royal Air Force, its role in the defence of the United Kingdom and her interests and the operations in which the Royal Air Force are currently engaged.

  • The Cadet Corps Originated from a Letter Sent by the War Office on 12Th May 1859 to Lord Lieutenants Asking Them to Raise Rifle Volunteer Battalions for Home Defence
    HISTORY OF THE CCF The Cadet Corps originated from a letter sent by the War Office on 12th May 1859 to Lord Lieutenants asking them to raise Rifle Volunteer Battalions for Home Defence. As a result, a number of schools formed units in 1859 which were attached to these battalions. In 1908, the Minister for War, Lord Haldane, invited universities and schools to form units of new Corps to provide officers for the then newly formed Territorial Force and a reservoir of officer material in the event of war. As a result, 87 schools accepted and formed the Junior Officers’ Training Corps. This was administered directly from the War Offices which drew up schemes for training, introduced proficiency certificates and arranged for annual camps and Inspections. HM King Edward VII consented to become the Colonel-in-Chief of the OTC. Some other schools besides those forming the OTC had formed Volunteer cadet units soon after 1900 and subsequently received full official recognition and a small grant from public funds. These units were usually affiliated to TA Regiments and administered through County TA Associations. In 1915, 92 such School Units were attached to various TA Regiments. Official recognition and financial support were withdrawn in 1930 from cadet units not in the OTC. The Public Secondary Schools Cadet Association under the guidance of its President, Field Marshal Lord Allenby, supported and played a significant part in the forming of the British National Cadet Association which subsequently organised County Cadet Committees to administer local cadet units and it is a matter of justifiable pride that so many of the schools affected carried on.
