Talbot Air Cadets grouped before setting off
to the Himalayas. Led by Flt Lt Mike
Stone, the group spent 28 days trekking at
the top of the world. The trip was a
result of two year of planning by the
squadron as a special millennium event, and
the officers and cadets have taken part in
many activities to fund the trip.
Local industry has also donated money to
help out. |
