The regular parade of ,543
Squadron that was to be held the
evening of Feb. 8 was cancelled due
to inclement weather conditions.
Blinding snow squalls that night
made the roads too hazardous for
the cadets to travel. Hence, no news
report appeared in last week's
Advance -Times.
Tue.. -Weather- y!Os much •.,more
-pleasant last Wednesday 'evening.
The cadets were out in full force at
the Armouries, concentrating on the
various winter electives.
The cadets' progress was closely
monitored by a distinguished guest.
John Chippa Sr., the area
representative for the Air Cadet
League of Canada, visited the
squadron to observe first-hand the
many varied activities currently
going on.
The cadets involved in target
shooting completed the required
marksmanship practices as set out
by the Dominion of Canada Rifle
Association. The cadets were
divided into two teams. Under the
watchful eye of Civilian Instructor
Kevin Stewart, each cadet shot a
total of 30 targets in the final
exercise.
Sgt. David MacRae of the ,pink
team achieved the highest score
with 9.6 per cent bull's eye hits,
followed by Sgt. David Cayley of the
Blues with a total of 93 per cent.
Marksmanship badges will be
awardedto qualifying cadets at a
later date.
The three remote-controlled
model glider airplanes are nearly
completed. Each plan is being built
by a group of cadets. The balsa wood
components are carefully cut out,
fitted and: glued together.
All that remains to be done is for
the several parts to be assembled
and the aircraft to be "skinned".
The cadets' knowledge of the
structure and many parts of an
aircraft is reinforced during the
construction phase.
The group leaders for this exercise
are Flt. -Sgt. Jeff Dennis, Cpl. Sean
Murphy and LAC Scott Beer. Capt.
Mac Anderson is the supervisory
officer.
Cl Dan Bisson taught his team of
cadets how to survive in the wild.
The class learned` how to make
deadfalls, set animal snares, weave
fish traps and how to clean game.
The survival specialist showed the
cadets that, in effect, he was
imitating the hunting methods as
originally practised by Canada's
native peopled
CI Sisson stressed that these
activities are only to occur in case of
emergencies . and lectured his
charges on the legal aspects of
Ontario's fish and gamelaws.
The squadron will hold its annual
winter bush training exercise at the
Whitechurch wilderness camp this
coming weekend. More specific
information about this event will be
forthcoming at tomorrow's regular
parade.
The cadets will meet in the
Armouries on Wednesday, from 1900
to 2130 hours..
