First Skill at Arms Session for New Cadets
Over the weekend, 28 CCF cadets, from both sections, attended a training session at Seely House, where they were introduced for the first time to Skill at Arms using the cadet GP rifle. This marked an important milestone in their cadet training, as Skill at Arms forms a core part of the CCF syllabus and underpins safe and effective training for future fieldcraft activities.
For many cadets, this was a challenging but rewarding experience. Some found the rifle initially heavy to handle, while others struggled with operating certain components of the weapon. Despite this, all cadets showed determination and resilience, persevering through the first three lessons under close supervision. With continued training, the cadets will develop confidence and competence, allowing them to use the rifles safely and correctly during upcoming fieldcraft weekends later in the year.
