What did you get up to in cadets:
"
I was at Bingley Detachment (D Coy) for nearly 3 years and Malton Det (A Coy) for about 9 Months. I got to Colour Sergeant, did Colts Canter a few times and my SCIC. I also did the SMP course (Summer Mountain Proficiency) through cadets. I did cadet of the year in my last year but unfortunately didn't win it"

What did you enjoy most in cadets?
"Cadets has taught me alot about leadership and getting up at 6:00am in the morning!! but I made some good friends and go to do some stuff that I'd never have got the chance to otherwise, like shooting and spending lots of free weekends in the countryside"

What have you done since cadets?
"Im doing History at Manchester at the moment, really involved with the OTC (officer training core) and I'm on an army scholarship so I go to Sandhurst in September 2009. So far the OTC has sent me skiing, mountaineering, sailing and rock climbing, so I'm pretty happy that the ACF got me involved with it all!"
