Just be prepared to acknowledge that the cadet forces are not the armed services and there are some very real differences which need to be considered.

The wealth of knowledge, expertise (some of which may actually count for naught, but that is another matter) and stories can only enhance the organization but there is still a steep learning curve, especially for those servicemen and women who are a bit longer in the tooth.

The Air Cadets really are at the fluffier side of "service life" and the working practices are far more in the style of modern management than, say, the forces of 10 years ago. I'm not saying that it is for the best, just that it is.
