King’s Cadet Selected for Rocky Mountain Cadet Leadership Course

Well done to Charlie Mackintosh, who was selected to spend six weeks with the Rocky Mountain Cadets over the summer, learning new skills each week, ranging from leadership skills and wilderness first aid to glacier mountaineering and white water kayaking on icy rivers. He gained the best student award on the trek cycle during the first week of camp and gained the second highest score for the course in his platoon. This resulted in his selection for a graduation parade in which he was selected to be the parade Regimental Sergeant Major, leading a parade of two hundred cadets and presenting an award to the Vice Chief of the Canadian defence staff, Lt General Wynnick.
