Brigadier P Lowe inspects the Guard of Honour

Sun shines on AGI day

The College was delighted to welcome Brigadier Matthew P Lowe MBE, Deputy Commander, London District, as the Reviewing Officer at the Combined Cadet Force (CCF)'s Annual General Inspection (AGI), held this week.

There was a warm welcome for the large number of parents, guests and Old Epsomians, a number of whom, including Brigadier Lowe's Aide de Camp, Captain Craig Shephard MC, are serving or former serving officers in the armed services.

In bright sunshine, the morning began with a Guard of Honour and a Muster Parade of the Contingent, followed by an Inspection and March-Past and an Advanced Drill Team Display. The proceedings were supported by the Band of the Royal Logistic Corps and the College's own Contingent Band.

After a buffet lunch, enjoyed by CCF staff and guests in Big School, cadets took part in a number of Inter-House competitions involving many skills, which demonstrated their training achievements.
