Seems odd that the Cadets wouldn't have any of their own available, it's not as though they didn't have No4's back in the days when Cadets were allowed to shoot real rifles and not airguns.
At the local Remembrance Day ceremony the Cadets paraded in with DP No4s, which had no bolts. Such a shame they can't be "trusted" with a rifle and a bolt...
This is what the parents are demanding. Actually many parents have demanded that no rifles of any sort be available. So far cadets has resisted but I think Navy League caved.
