MORE than 250 army cadets from Devon attended a spring training camp held over the Easter period at Okehampton Camp.

A wide range of activities were undertaken on both military and non military skills. The opportunity is given to junior cadets to experience life in a military environment for the first time and the camp offers the facilities to undertake activities that are not available at their home locations.

The Honorary Colonel, Brigadier Simon Young CBC, was visiting along with the High Sheriff of Devon, Angela Gilbert. The pair met and spoke with many cadets and commented on their enthusiasm and energy in fulfilling the many tasks set for them.
