Teenage Cadets gave a rip roaring welcome to the Presbyterian Moderator Rt Rev Fr Rob Craig when he paid a visit to see them in action at Magilligan Cadet Training Centre.

It was an unusual engagement for Rt Rev Fr Craig who is also Minister of Kilfennan Presbyterian Church in Londonderry, but the Moderator clearly enjoyed seeing at first hand some of the ‘serious fun’ which is the hallmark of Cadet life.
