Many congratulations indeed to Chief Petty Officer Milly Cooper, our leading cadet in the Navy Section of the CCF. As one of five of His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadets for 2022-2023, Millie will be attending a number of key civic events in our county, accompanying the Lord Lieutenant, the Vice Lord-Lieutenant or one of the Deputy Lieutenants. Her first engagement will be at St Giles’ on Remembrance Sunday where she has also been asked to read the Kohima Epitaph: “They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them”.
