After forging strong links between our Unit and 849 Squadron at RNAS Culdrose, we say goodbye to Lt Cdr Paddy Fraser as he moves onto new pastures within the Royal Navy. Whilst at 849 Squadron, Lt Cdr Fraser was the Air Engineering Officer and approached our Unit to offer help where he could. Having been a member of the Sea Cadet Corps in the past, he was a great asset, and ensured a close affiliation between our Unit and 849 Squadron. We wish him well in his future posting, and he has assured us that he will stay in touch. Our affiliation remains intact on his departure, and his replacement, Lt Cdr Matt Flegg, has promised to continue his work with us.
Goodbye to Lt Cdr Paddy Fraser - October 2010
Eden Project Bulb Planting - 2nd October 2010
On Saturday 2nd October 2010, four cadets, PO Mitchell and Mrs Clayton helped to plant purple crocus bulbs at the Eden Project in conjunction with the Thanks for Life charity supported by Rotary International. The purple crocus bulb is a symbol of the purple pinkie, which is the sign in many countries to show that a child has been innoculated against the deadly Poliomyelitis virus. Thankfully, this virus is no longer an real issue in this country but it does still effect the people of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nothern India and Nigeria. After the planting was complete, the cadets had free entry to the Eden Project domes for the rest of the visit.
