AUSTRALIAN
NAVY CADET UNITS, HISTORY, REPORTS & CURRENT EVENTS
The
Australian Navy Cadets (previously known as Naval Reserve Cadets
1973 - 31 March 2001), came under the direct sponsorship of the
Royal Australian Navy in January 1973, providing for the spiritual,
social and educational welfare of boys and girls and help to develop
them in character, a sense of patriotism, self-reliance, citizenship
and discipline. Uniforms are supplied free of charge. Cadets are
required to produce a certificate from their doctor to confirm
they are capable of carrying out the normal duties and activities
of the Cadet Corps. If injured while on duty, Cadets are considered
for payment of compensation. Parades are normally held during
a weekend, Saturday or Sunday, or on Friday evening. Training
Syllabus includes seamanship, boat handling - sail and power,
navigation, physical training, rifle shooting, signalling, rope
splicing, general sporting activities and a variety of other subjects.
Instructional camps are arranged for Cadets and they are also
given opportunities, whenever possible, to undertake training
at sea in ships of the Royal Australian Navy. If Cadets are interested
in pursuing a maritime career, then they are given every assistance
to join the Royal Australian Navy, Mercantile Marine or such other
maritime career option they choose.
