This year Luton entered two teams into the District Drill and Piping Competition, a 12+1 Sea Cadet Unarmed Squad lead by Able Cadet Newell and a 6+1 Royal Marines Cadet Armed Guard led by L/Cpl Loveland. The event was held at Cambridge and assessed by the Area Staff Officer Ceremonial for Eastern Area, Lt Cdr (SCC) Waring RNR. Teams were assess on their dress and bearing and then completed a set routine, including receiving a VIP and a march past, as well as a free drill display for the judges.
Both teams did very well, and the RMC Guard won the Best RMC Guard, and Best RMC Guard Commander for L/Cpl Loveland. They now progress through to Area Drill and Piping in January.
