36 Sea Cadets from across the country with Air Cadets, Army Cadet Force and Combined Cadet Force will carry 13 flags representing the countries that are taking part in the Invictus Games, at tonight’s opening ceremony in the Olympic Stadium, London.

Over 400 competitors from 13 nations will take part in the Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women. Teams will come from the armed forces of nations that have served alongside each other. The games will use the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation, and generate a wider understanding and respect of those who serve their country.
