• Our SACF Cadets (click here for their names) who participated in the Apr 08 Combat Cadet Competition on STANTA. Their 'Command Task' was executed with the utmost precision, directed by LBdr Daniel Allsebrook, BStE Det, A Coy. And thanks to the supporting adults: Capt Cathy Bradshaw, SSI Grant Crouch, County HQ and SI Paul Rumble, A Coy.
  The ashes of the parents of the Webmaster were scattered at Frog Hill and it is a poignant reminder of their influence when an opportunity arises to visit the site (where the closing scene of Capt Mainwaring and his 'Dad's Army' were filmed) and that of the Bailey Bridge by the R Wissey where memories of STANTA exercises of the 1970s and 1980s with 6 (V) Bn, The Royal Anglian Regt come flooding back !

For some Old Stuff: Look at Suffolk ACF on 'Facebook' for some 'Old Faces' ! (15 Apr)

An Apr 08 e-mail was received {not corrected for capitalisation, punctuation or syntax - old long-retired schoolmaster speak !}:
'I look at our suffolk web site, about once a month and every time I look at it, I think how badly its laid out, and how out of date in the information is , alongside how bad the photos are and how hard it is to navigate around the web site.
The web site is meant to be fresh and encouraging, may be a little inspiring and it’s not.
I’m not sure whether some one has told you this, but I can’t sit here and look at how good some of our detachment web sites are and yet how our county one is so poor.'
{Webmaster Comment :  'A response will be sent when the deadlines for SACF copy of my Castle piece to RHQ BStE and B&C Suffolk ACF piece to Maj Bob Godfrey MC, have been met.}
Earlier opinions were, from :
Brigadier Mike Wharmby OBE, ACFA General Secretary,: 'I've looked at your site - very impressive. I hope our new www.armycadets.com site is as good when we re-launch it later in the year.'
Maj Oliver Shepard, Webmaster UK National ACF site www.armycadets.com : 'I wish more Counties were so efficient!
Capt Les Jackson, CAA B Coy, Suffolk ACF: 'Great site and lots to see.'
What do other surfers think about this site ?
Please e-mail Major John L Raybould TD, Webmaster Suffolk ACF, with your opinion of our site.
