Silver DofE expedition in Peak District, 4-6 Oct 2024
1368 cadets pulled off another amazing display of campcraft competence and team comradery in their 3 day practice DofE expedition in the Peak District. The umbrella hats did their job of keeping away the rain. One of the most enjoyable groups to run expeditions for got even better. Combining with 29F staff, we also managed to get a team of 7 from 3 different squadrons (1289, 29F and 156 Sqns) through their Silver actual. Amazing scenery, plenty of laughs, and some really really tired cadets. It is what the DofE scheme's expedition section should be about.
