From shooting to archery, Duke of Edinburgh Gold Expeditions to first aid, the activities provided training for Staffordshire Wing's cadets.
Supported by 42 staff, the cadets also took part in many leadership activities including the ceremonial drill sessions.
"Swynnerton is hard work for us all," says Deputy Officer Commanding Staffordshire Wing, Squadron Leader Grant Kearns. "This camp is one of Staffordshire Wing's main annual activities. The number of cadets receiving awards at the end of the week demonstrates the enthusiasm and commitment shown by both cadets and staff throughout our Wing."
