Weapons training is only a small part of what they do the next link is regarding Army Cadets but it also covers the CCF forces as well.

Brian - I certainly do not recognise your description of Astor, you are doing an excellent school an injustice.
Keith - why on earth cant you just agree without caveats. I am right, I am on the governing body there.
