Firstly, apologies if this is not the right place to post - wasn't sure where would be most appropriate.
I'm looking into joining my local Air Cadets as a civvie instructor in order to get some additional leadership experience and RAF insight to support my bid to become an officer. I'm already an officer in St John Ambulance, which hopefully will count in my favour, but I figured the Cadets would give me a bit more variety (I'm an adult unit officer in SJA whereas obviously the Cadets would give me experience working with kids) and some valuable insight into military life. Not to mention, it actually sounds like a pretty fun way to spend some of my spare time
Has anyone on here done the same? Is anyone able to offer any advice/tips/general comment on joining as a civvie instructor or on the Cadets in general? I reckon there must be a few peeps who were cadets floating around on here. Unfortunately it never occured to me to join as a cadet when I was a kid - back then I thought I wanted to be a judge, not an RAF officer!
