As they progress in the AAFC, cadets take part in an increasingly challenging program of fieldcraft and survival activities, with Squadrons offering several bush camps every year.
Cadets learn basic map reading, navigation and camouflage skills, progressing to skills such as creating a bush shelter from the natural environment, collecting water and trapping food.
Fieldcraft and survival camps give cadets a chance to lead their peers in challenging circumstances. It’s out in the bush where you really make friends for life!
