اس صفحہ پر

Annual Camp 2026 Has Begun!

Today, August 25, 2026, our cadets have started arriving for Annual Camp 2026. They will enjoy a variety of activities, including trips to a theme park, adventurous training days, cultural visits, and military training on-site.

The fun, friendship, action, and adventure have just begun!

County Parade

After completing all the necessary administration, our cadets have been on parade for the Commandant’s address.

This included his welcome message and an overview of what to anticipate during our annual camp this week.

It was also the perfect moment to promote 2Lt Sue Kilgour to the rank of Lieutenant and to promote and appoint our new Cadet RSM, Cdt RSM Dylan Mead. Congratulations!

Then followed talks from our CEO on Safeguarding. Our Padres held a small service followed by the RSM’s talk on Values and Standards.

New Cadet RSM Has Been Appointed

Congratulations to Cadet RSM Dylan Mead, who was promoted and appointed as Cadet RSM for Wiltshire ACF last night by our Commandant, Colonel Pete White
