222 Squadron Australian Air Force Cadets

The aim of the Australian Defence Force Cadets, which includes the AAFC, is:

“By predominantly voluntary effort, to better equip young people for community life by fostering initiatives, leadership, discipline and loyalty through training programs which are also designed to stimulate an interest in a particular arm of the Defence Force.”

From this, the following specific aims have been developed to:

give cadets a foundation of Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) knowledge and discipline
develop qualities of leadership, self-reliance and initiative
develop character and good citizenship in the widest sense
develop an interest in the RAAF and aviation generally
instil a knowledge of aviation history, and
encourage cadets to continue an active interest in aviation into their adult life.

From leading sections of fellow Cadets out in the bush to planning and executing your own activities. All Cadets are afforded the same opportunities no matter their background to bring out their best.
