It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of Brayden McDonald, a dedicated and spirited 14 year old Cadet who was not only part of our Unit for more than a year, but also a bright and cherished presence in our lives and friend to many.
This week we came together as a Cadet Unit to celebrate his life and find comfort in each others support, during a time of Reflection and a Parade Ground Service.
We are deeply grateful to those who joined us, especially Army Chaplain Maltby from 3CER in Townsville, and to those across the ADFC, the RSL and the wider community who have reached out since we received news of the vehicle crash.
In condolence, let us continue to keep Brayden and his Family in our thoughts and prayers.
