Air
Commodore Barbara Cooper________________ |
| The event was extremely well attended by RAF

from all four corners of the country, all with
one common goal; that is, to look forward and
ensure the foundation stones are firmly in place
for a sustainable future for the Air Cadet

| Also making her first public appearance as
Commandant Air Cadets was Air Commodore Barbara

| On behalf and representing Number 3 Welsh

Jeremiah (3WW ATO), Flt Lt Liam Brace (OC 2227
Sqn), Plt Off Morgan (3WW MCO) and Sgt

good to catch up with old friends and an
opportunity to fly the flag for Number 3 Welsh
Wing. |
