PHOEBUS Nineteen Forty-Eight CADET OFFICERS L. H. S. CADET CORPS The L. H. S. Cadet Corps, one of the oldest corps in this Command, is ranked with the best corps. This is due to the esprit de corps that has been built up over the years by the co-operation between the officers, N.C.O. s and other ranks. Each year, for the past four years, the corps has taken into its midst a platoon of senior public school students frorq the Ridge. This has been done to acquaint them with the fundamentals of cadet training prior to their admittance to High School. The corps has recently become a house function with each House pro¬ viding officers and men to form two platoons. We hope during the forthcoming Open House to demonstrate the various phases of Cadet training in which we are instructed. FRONT ROW: Gene Gutteridge, Bob Pews.
