Air Cadets Climb the Rock!
Several cadets of Spalding’s 1406 Air Cadet Squadron recently returned from an ATC Camp to RAF Gibraltar, where one of the many activities they got to enjoy was to ‘climbing the rock!’
The cadets joined about 40 others from two regions including the Bedfordshire and Cambridge Region of the Air Training Corps (ATC) which the squadron belongs to. On top of the usual camp activities, they got to visit working RAF sections including the Fire Section, RAF Police Dog Section and Bomb Disposal Sections.
It was not all work and no play, they got to spend time enjoying the sun and sea at the beach nearby, including a boat safari looking for dolphins, a visit to a local water park and theme park, all before taking on the ‘rock – the long walk to the peak of the island!
