EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of determination and camaraderie among RAF Halton apprentices during the 1977 Ten Tors expedition. The Ten Tors challenge is an annual event organized by the Army Cadet Force, which tests the endurance and navigation skills of teams as they traverse the rugged terrain of Dartmoor, England. In this image, we see the weary but resilient faces of the RAF Halton apprentices as they gather around the campfire at MOD Okehampton. The team, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their gear, are a testament to the physical and mental fortitude required to complete the grueling 35-mile course. The backdrop of the image is dominated by the open expanse of the moorland, with its rolling hills, rocky outcrops, and scattered trees. The sky above is a mix of clouds, hinting at the unpredictable weather conditions that the teams often face during the event. In the foreground, a model aeroplane sits on a makeshift table, a reminder of the aeronautical background of the apprentices and the connection between the RAF and aviation. The photograph also showcases the logistical aspect of the expedition, with tents pitched in neat rows and cooking equipment laid out. The camp site, nestled amidst the wild beauty of Dartmoor, serves as a temporary home for the teams as they prepare for the next day's challenges. The Ten Tors expedition is not just a test of individual strength and teamwork but also an opportunity for personal growth and bonding among the apprentices, making it a cherished tradition within the RAF community.
