You can take this cadet out of S.C.C but, never can you take Sea Cadet Corps out of this Cadet.
So much so for missing the days spent romancing the sea with discipline in the air.
Yes, I was a Sea Cadet and I can never be more proud!
I dedicate this post to all my fellow Ex Sea Cadets who are missing the Corps from the bottom of their Souls (I know and can relate to it too).




Here are the 11 Things Every Sea Cadet Can Relate To.




1) Every time we see a cadet in that nostalgia woven uniform all we remember is our true blue days at the TS Jawahar, all for good reasons.

2) We left sea cadet and the adventures we had there, to fill up this gap we have to indulge ourselves in many adventurous activities.

 "For the love of it lets go to kolad do some river rafting or at least join this Awesome adventure club." ;) 



3) Every Republic Day we have our deepest desire is to go and attend the R.D. Parade at Shivaji Park. 
All those who stay near Dadar, dude you are L-U-C-K-Y!!

4) Desh Bhakti (Love towards our nation) or say, the
Defence forces is a never ending emotion we imbibe in ourselves. Coz, loving sea cadets means loving India.

5) No matter what Field we chose after leaving Sea cadets, we are trained leaders who know exactly what they are doing.

6) Every ship reminds us of T.S Jawahar and the concrete beauty that it is in itself.

7) Every time we tie a knot, all we remember is the overhand, figure of eight or the bowline…..

Rigging learned in Sea Cadet Corps.
 "What? Just tie a figure of eight man!" 



8) We know we overcame our many fears during our training period and interaction with people is one learned talent to name.

9) We miss Sea Cadet buddies and try to get in touch with the ones who lost contact via the blessed social media.

10) It doesn’t matter if we attended the ceremony, the presentation of the CNS standard was one of the proudest moment for all the sea cadets at heart.

11) Last but not the least, the respect we have for our Commodore Superintendent Rabi Ahuja is indescribable.
