The main thing on are others minds were biannual inspection, even I forgot  :P
Although I think they knew, but didn't tell us, it was us who forgot and everyone looked surprised XD

PS what kind of activitys do you do in ATC when not on camp?

Our squadron is famous for drill, in fact that is what we do every Tuesday (hell I'm doing it this evening for the drill competition). Otherwise we do a variety of things, gliding, shooting , archery, rock climbing, whatever else happens to come up.

Ahhh so I guess our sqaudron has met yours at a drill competition before then!

It is a video of last years team before doing the air sqaudron trophy drill comp which we didn't win that year which is why we lost the trophy after having the longest than any over CCF :(

they didn't win because it looks like they are using the old ACP drill procedures, if any that I know of.
height order is odd and the salutes appear to be carried out with the timing "Up-1-Down"
Our front salutes are "Up-2-3-Down"

That siad, it does appear very similar to our wing's drill competition lay out.

Also, my father works in Maidstone.

We learn our salutes also up two three down, so they may of been a bit fast, also we have only started doing new drill timings this year as we have to still do army timings if we are with the rest of the CCF.

That explains it! The army cadets are really, really crap (sorry to any Army cadets) They were useless at all of the parades they've been involved in.
