A price list for Cadets Uniform will follow this week. We currently have in stock or accessible a large amount of uniform. To order Adults or Cadets please be sure to use the Stores Order Form, attached along with this HQTM.

If you require any uniform or equipment please contact us in the first instance. We have uniform and we are always looking for suppliers of equipment etc., and are looking to find the cheapest price for our Units. Any queries just ask. Head of Stores will be in post on 1st August and until then please contact the Captain, Maritime Cadets.

The maritime Cadets Ensign is below. Units that have an NTC Ensign will be able to alter this quite cheaply.

Simply print the logo which is in this HQTM on and iron over exisiting.

We are currently looking to source these ensigns and will notify everyone when this has been done. Preparatives and Church Pennants to fit smaller masts in Units are available at the Hampshire Flag Company.
