EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and camaraderie of a RAF Halton apprentice team during the 1977 Ten Tors expedition. The Ten Tors challenge is an annual event organized by the Dartmoor Training Centre in the United Kingdom, which involves teams of six young people navigating their way across the rugged and challenging terrain of Dartmoor, visiting ten specified tors and returning to the finish line within a set time limit. In this image, the 126th entry team, proudly wearing their RAF uniforms, can be seen making their way through the landscape, each member focused on the path ahead. The team carries a variety of equipment, including backpacks, tents, and cooking supplies, as well as a model aeroplane, a nod to their affiliation with the Royal Air Force. The image transports us back to a time when teamwork, perseverance, and a spirit of adventure were key components of the apprentice experience at RAF Halton. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Ten Tors challenge and the resilience of those who have taken part in it.
