The image captures their determination and eagerness to learn amidst the backdrop of Cadet Camp. During this tumultuous period marked by the Second World War, young boys were trained rigorously to become skilled soldiers.

In this particular scene from August 18th, we witness these aspiring soldiers honing their artillery skills under expert guidance. Firing powerful 25-pounder guns known for their impact on battlefields, they learn how to handle heavy weaponry crucial for combat scenarios. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its portrayal of youthful resilience amid challenging times.
