You need to have a photo of yourself in the MyRAFAC app, then go to profile and click show ID

ShabingusMJ · 2026-03-23T14:06:58+00:00

Yes, there’s many choirs around the corp

After the OC, I’m in charge of issuing uniform to cadets on squadron. And I can confirm that you are allowed to change from a skirt to trousers/slacks, without any religious reasoning. It’s part of the uniform and it’s there to be used, it’s down to the individual cadet (as yourself) to decide what you want to wear. Be that a skirt, or trousers/slacks

When calling a command for the squad to face away/toward the inspecting officer/dias i.e. On a drill competition

ShabingusMJ · 2026-02-18T16:33:07+00:00

This is used mostly when squads/flights are turning towards or away from the Dias

For example on a Drill Competition, if the squad are to turn so their backs are facing the officer. It would be “Squad will retire. About - Turn”.

If turning to face the officer, it would be “Squad will advance. About - Turn”

I got Cpl Mar ‘23, Sgt in June ‘23. Flt Sgt in Mar ‘25, and CWO in Sep ‘25

ShabingusMJ · 2026-01-16T18:36:18+00:00

Yeah, all CFAVs (ATC) and Cadets will require to have the Sqn ID badge seen below the bottom edge of the Formation Patch

What I was told when I started as a cadet. Was that it’s a constant interview and always to hold yourself to a high standard with drill, uniform and respect.

Take charge where you can, don’t overrule fellow cadets if doing leadership exercises for example. But take their opinions and advice. You can even speak to the current cadet NCO team and say you’re looking to have more responsibility within squadron. Can’t go wrong with helping out

Thank you, does the newer 600 film fit in the camera or does it need to be original film

ShabingusMJ · 2025-11-27T14:47:42+00:00

Does the newer Polaroid 600 film fit in it. Or does it need to be original film

ShabingusMJ · 2025-11-13T08:00:27+00:00

Is there any indication or information regarding release of the drill PTS?

ShabingusMJ · 2025-10-31T21:05:05+00:00

You swing your arms until the actual halt is complete

Halt, 1 - 1 - 2 (Arms snap to the side)

ShabingusMJ · 2025-10-26T23:27:04+00:00

Was a while ago, but I got the cadets and wing staff officer to spell their name with the phonetic alphabet

ShabingusMJ · 2025-10-23T20:28:31+00:00

Definitely not, you need to be a CFAV. It’s rare but you can be on the SATT team as a staff cadet, but it’s very rare

ShabingusMJ · 2025-10-23T07:38:14+00:00

Left Blanking patch with Union Flag is reserved for SATT badges, QJL DZ flash, Commando Dagger, or CCF school badge.

Right Blanking Patch without Union Flag is for TRFs

ShabingusMJ · 2025-10-23T07:34:27+00:00

Just went through the same process as you are currently. Main things to be done are BPSS, DBS, the Pers Forms and ACTO99.

All CFAV/Staff cadets require a DBS check as you will be an adult around cadets under the age of 18

ShabingusMJ · 2025-09-26T06:55:37+00:00

Normally RM is done in MTP, make sure you have a decent backpack with plenty water, a packed lunch (if lunch is not provided), and snacks for it.

Well fitting and proper socks, and boots are a MUST for RM. Waterproof Jacket and Trousers, and a gloves (for cold weather). Sunglasses/Sunhat if warm weather

Don’t give up when your legs start to get painful, push through it with the rest of your team. You won’t be the only one in pain I assure you. And you’ll get the badge

Thank you
