🌟60 YEARS🌟
Tonight, we say a massive goodbye to Flying Officer Collins and Warrant Officer Collins, two pillars of this squadron whose combined 60 years of passion and commitment have shaped us all. Warrant Officer Collins, in particular, dedicated himself to the shooting side of cadet training, pouring years into refining cadets' marksmanship, safety, and confidence on the range. He didn’t just teach technique—he fostered a sense of responsibility and self-discipline, ensuring every cadet understood the importance behind each shot. Flying Officer Collins, equally devoted, was a beacon of mentorship—she spent countless hours inspiring cadets, pushing them to believe in themselves, and guiding them through every challenge. Together, they built a culture of excellence—whether on the range, in the classroom, or in leadership. We are forever grateful for their tireless contributions; their legacy is woven into the very heart of this squadron, and they will be so deeply, so profoundly missed.
