Fourteen-year-old Senior cadets Phoebe Shaw and Henry Eccles, from Whitworth Community High School, are both planning a career in the RAF.

On February 8, an anniversary service was held at St George's Church, Stockport, and afterwards there was a military march of about a mile through the town.

Both Henry and Phoebe said the march was hard on their feet but they felt very privileged to be a part of the ceremony.
