Congrats to Cdt Aleksejevs, Cdt Palczynski, Cdt Sardini and Cdt Donabie for getting their Blue DofE badges! 🎉

In order to achieve your Pre-DofE badge, you should complete an element of fitness training, complete a few sections of your first class logbook, and complete some volunteer work. Our group of cadets completed litter picking around the streets of Gateshead, collecting bags and bags of rubbish. 🗑️

Well done cadets!

Last weekend 361 hit RAF Spadeadam for the Wing AT Challenge. The weekend consisted of first aid casualty simulations, orienteering, archery and more. This was the first overnight experience for some of our team, and they definitely made the most of it!

Well done to FS Little, Cpl Gilroy, Cdt Walters, Cdt Ergun and Cdt Thoburn for representing 361 and giving it their all! ⛺

Huge congrats to Sgt Deng on earning their Silver Road Marching Badge and medal! 🥈👏

Sgt Deng was one of 32 cadets from Durham Northumberland Wing Air Cadets to complete the RAFWARMA 2-Day March at RAF Cosford. 40km a day for two days back-to-back, marching alongside RAF personnel, cadets, and civilians from across the country.

Months of training paid off, and they even got the chance to meet Air Commodore Al Lewis, Commandant Air Cadets, while they were there!

Props to you Sgt Deng! 🎉

📢 361 SQUADRON FIRST! 📢

Sgt Deng is the first cadet on our Sqn to achieve their Silver Space badge! This milestone wasn't an easy one - the silver syllabus involves attending a Wing-level course as well as having an understanding of a breadth of content on our future in space.

This is a truly fantastic achievement for both Sgt Deng and 361! 💪
