This is the first one I’ve been to where we’ve had two Learners pass out together and I could not be more proud of them both. They have worked incredibly hard and overcome challenges to get this far. Da lawn both. A credit to the British Army, your family, the Cardiff college and the whole of MPCT and we wish you the best of luck with as you start your next chapter and your next challenge of phase 2 training – Staff Richards
