Guest bianchiboy Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 On a lighter note than the prevaiing topics... A few posts below got me thinking. I spent the better part of my teen years as an Air Cadet. I got both my glider and private licences through cadets, learned a whole lot more about life than I would have in just high school alone, and made some lifelong excellent friends. To this day, some of my best friends were people I met in cadets. IMO this is probably one of the best youth groups out there, and I am glad I experienced it. Just curious as to the amount of cadet alumni here on the AEF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
