43 Chapter 9: 13 years oldThe next night the N.C.O.s came again, but the cadet they wanted to black with shoe polish was not there, the bed was empty. Not to leave empty handed they grabbed the same cadet of the night before and blackened him, a very bad move by the N.C.O.s!!! This cadet refused to clean himself even with threats from the N.C.O.s. All the cadets then joined forces and agreed with the blackened cadet that they would report it if it happened again. Peace was to reign at night from the blackers, the cadets had won a battle!!! The first full day on the camp was a tour of the whole airfield, the cadets were shown around the armoury, hangers, control tower. This took all day as this was a fighter airfield with ENGLISH ELECTRIC LIGHTINGS as their fighter aircraft. The food on the camp in the canteen was second to none, bacon, sausage, egg, beans (never mind the toast and cornflakes) for breakfast. |
