Reunion planned for Lieutenant Governors' Cadets

Tuesday 05 June 2018


A reunion is being planned for all current and former Lieutenant Governors' Cadets, which will be the first time they've all got together.

It is first time in the scheme’s history that a reunion has been organised.

The Office of the Lieutenant-Governor said the invitation has been extended to all former Lieutenant-Governors’ Cadets, who have been involved with the scheme since it was first instigated in 1988.

The then Lieutenant-Governor, Lieutenant General Sir Alexander Boswell, came up with the idea, which saw four Cadets appointed to give official recognition for their special achievements.

The first Cadets have been followed by numerous in successive years, with the current Lieutenant-Governor, Vice Admiral Sir Ian Corder, saying it works very well: "It’s an excellent scheme, which continues to recognise some of the brightest young people in our island."

His Excellency added: "I’m very much looking forward to seeing how many former cadets we can muster in one place, to find out what they are doing now and to share memories of their time in post."

The Chief of Staff to the Lieutenant-Governor, Major Marco Ciotti, has asked for the publics’ assistance in contacting former cadets: "We believe that there are around 70 eligible individuals out there, some of whom are likely to be living outside of the Bailiwick, so we are hoping that friends and families will help spread the word about the reunion."

The reunion is planned for Saturday 15 December 2018.

Any former Lieutenant-Governors’ Cadets who have not already contacted Government House should get in touch with the Office of the Lieutenant-Governor by calling 726666, or via e-mail at governorsoffice@gov.gg
