| Over the course of the 2015-2016 training year, cadets at 111 learned a variety of new and valuable skills. Between survival, aviation, drill and ceremonial, fitness, first aid, and leadership training, the Squadron offers a wide range of activities for cadets to experience. The culmination of all this training is known as the ACR: Annual Ceremonial Review. During the ACR, cadets conduct a march past, and are inspected by a Reviewing Officer. This year’s RO was Hon. Col. Diane McCurdy, of 442 Search and Rescue Squadron, 19 Wing Comox. |  |
In addition to the parade, the Squadron demonstrates some of the programs we offer. Included in the ACR were demonstrations by the drill team, band, and effective speaking team. As well as the dynamic displays, a room with poster boards and information regarding the Squadron’s other activities was created. These are known as the static displays, and included aviation, survival, first aid, and sports, among others. Finally, the parade ended with the recognition of outstanding cadets for their contributions over the course of the year. Most of the awards handed out at ACR were for senior cadets, with the remainder being distributed at the Squadron’s awards dinner. Overall, the ACR was a successful end to a successful training year. The level of drill and dress presented by the cadets was impressive, and it was a fantastic way to end the 2015-2016 training year on a high note.
