PRINCE GEORGE – The Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps has been a part of Prince George for 65 years. This week the 2618 Cadet Corps marked the milestone anniversary with a full-dress parade.

Sixty-five years of history hang in one of the rooms at the 2618 Royal Canadian Army Cadet corps headquarters.

“It’s really special in a way. We’ve beat a lot of other cadet units in the number of years that we’ve been around. Some units don’t last as long as we have. Some are definitely older than we are as well. But 65 years as an organization for youth in Prince George is a very good historic event for.”
