**BLUE RADIOโก๏ธ**
On Sunday the 7th of July, 4 of our cadets attended a Blue Radio Course, which was held at 969 St Helens Sqn.

*Bravo Flight*
B flight was doing Feildcraft with CWO Baldwin, and the night consisted of learning how to scan and do concealed movements in the field whilst being undetected. This activity is very handy if cadets ever go onto a feildcraft camp so they can attend with a strong basis of knowledge, learnt at 306. ๐

C Flight was doing financial management with Flt Lt Shallcross. This activity was all about the correct way to manage your money and finances for when you get older and have a stable income. This activity was great because it's something that is very important for being an adult.๐ฐ

** FLYING๐ฉ **
On Tuesday the 14th of May, four cadets from 306 Squadron attended a chance to go Flying at RAF Woodvale.
Whilst there, they were taught various safety precautions, aswell as being shown how an aircraft works. Each of the cadets also got to take a flight in an aircraft while admiring all of the scenery across RAF Woodvale. ๐
Furthermore, cadets got to do some really cool aerobatic movements, which would have been very fun and educational for all cadets. This is not something that you get to do every day, and in some cases, some people don't get to do it in their lifetime. It truly is a great experience. ๐

Yesterday, CWO Baldwin attended the BEM Investitures ceremony at Chester Town Hall.

This weekend, 5 of our cadets attended a bronze radio course held at 306 runcorn sqn!
The course was ran over two days by the merseyside Wing radio team , in which they taught many skills such as, radio checks and authentications.๐
CPL Taylor-Williams said: "The bronze radio course was a very rewarding experience, it taught me the knowledge and skills I need to safely and efficiently relay messages over radio frequencies, and how to keep myself safe while using them. I also worked on rewarding skills such as teamwork. In summary, bronze radios was a hands-on experience of radio conversation and the application of efficiency, I would recommend that cadets who are interested in radios/cyber enroll onto this course."
