It’s been an incredible summer supporting our cadets developing their seamanship and navigation skills aboard this incredible WWII warship. The rich history combined with the dedication of the crew has been a true inspiration. Proud to have been part of this partnership!.
Our cadets have had a fab weekend onboard @HMSMedusa & they were greeted by @RAdmJudeTerry who popped down for a visit! RAdm Terry also has the pleasure to promote one of our #NavyCadets to Leading Cadet! BZ!
