Eastern Area Drill Competition Runners-Up

Massive congratulations to our Royal Marines Cadets who finished second in the Eastern Area Sea Cadets Drill Competition, receiving their medals from the Area Officer, Commander Bagot-Jewitt. Well done in particular to Corporal Champion who was also runner-up for the Best Troop Commander award. 🥈🥈

This is the first time that our Royal Marines Cadet Detachment has ever entered a Drill Competition at either Troop or Company level, which makes this achievement even more special! This is a real testament to the hard work and commitment of the Cadets and support from our Adult Volunteers over the last couple of months.
