C (RIFLES) COY HWACF
The training year of Hereford and Worcester ACF got off to a busy start with adults and cadets deploying to Otterburn for annual camp. The weather was kind and a good time was had by all. Soon after annual camp we said a fond farewell to CSM Simon Gryntus who was leaving the company after 13 years to become RSM. In his stead we welcomed, on promotion, SMI Andy Bowden.
C Coy is a wholly Rifles cap-badged company and it took a full part in cadet commemorations for the First World War Armistice at home and abroad with a cohort travelling to Ypres to take part in the National Army Cadet Force ceremony. A similar party later deployed to Normandy this June to take part in the National Army Cadet Force ceremony in Normandy.
