2024 Remembrance Day Service

November 11, 2024, at the 11th hour, cadets from 197 Typhoon Squadron – WO1 Walton, FSgt Westerlaken-Burge, Sgt Walton, and Cdt Svilans – stood guard at the Acton Cenotaph. They stood in silence to honour and remember the brave people who served and sacrificed for our country.

By standing guard, these cadets showed respect and reminded everyone of the importance of remembering those who fought for the freedoms we have today. Thank you to these cadets for representing the squadron with pride and honour.
