Three Air Cadets High Level Success
Spalding Air Training Squadron is celebrating a first in recent history at the same time, grouped together for the picture we have the three possible lanyards achievable in the Corps awarded to Cadet Sergeant Jordan Bertolaso (18) left, Cadet Sergeant Amber Wait (17) middle, and Cadet Sergeant William Chew (18) right.
The highly prized awards of Instructor Cadet (yellow), Junior Leader (purple) and Qualified Aerospace Instructor Cadet (QAIC – blue) all symbolize the hard work and effort put in by the cadets to be granted permission to wear the lanyards and instruct fellow cadets in specialized subjects.
The Squadron is very proud, each of the cadet Sergeants has shown commitment in passing selection processes to get on courses, completing all the work needed (in one case a number of years), being assessed and passing each stage needed, they have become fine examples to follow.
Each has added a quote:
Cadet Sergeant Jordan Bertolaso commented ” QAIC is the best, cannot recommend it enough”.
Cadet Sergeant Amber Wait commented “It was a great learning experience, and it has broadened my horizons”.
Cadet Sergeant William Chew Commented “The hardest, yet most worthwhile achievement”.
