We did something truly historic yesterday, attending the ceremony of the constables dues, at the tower of London, over 90 cadets from across the vcc conducting this tradition from the 14th century, for the first time ever being conducted by cadets.

Cadets from HMS Sultan RNVCC had an unforgettable experience as they stepped aboard RFA Argus during a recent visit to HMNB Portsmouth!

RFA Argus is a key asset of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary, serving as a Primary Casualty Receiving Ship and aviation training vessel. She plays a crucial role in supporting Royal Navy and coalition operations around the globe by providing essential supplies such as food, fuel, and water, ensuring that frontline warships can stay at sea and mission-ready.

The Cadets thoroughly enjoyed exploring the ship and learning more about the vital work carried out by the RFA.

👏 A huge thank you to the Royal Fleet Auxiliary, the Commanding Officer of RFA Argus, and the entire Ship’s Company for their time, warm welcome, and generous hospitality.

Experiences like these help inspire and educate our young people, giving them a deeper appreciation for the important work of the Royal Navy and its supporting organisations. ⚓️
