Cadet from Inverness builds leadership abilities

An Army cadet from Culloden has been building up his personal leadership abilities.

Cadet Kyle Duncan (17), from 1st Battalion The Highlanders’ Culloden Detachment, took part in the nine-day cadet leadership course at Barry Buddon Training Camp, near Dundee, alongside almost 120 other cadets.

A spokesman for the 1st Battalion The Highlanders said: “The aim of the course is to focus the cadet’s attention on the personal characteristics they should be trying to develop, giving them leadership qualities that would serve them well wherever they go and whatever they do.”

The culmination of the course was a three-day exercise with the cadets taking on various command and leadership positions.
