Welcome to the website of Campbell College Combined Cadet Force. The CCF at Campbell is now a voluntary organisation, but is still one of the largest in the UK with around 300 Cadets over three sections; Royal Navy, Army and Royal Airforce. We also have our own Bugles, Pipes and Drums section, who perform at a variety of high profile functions in and out of the College.

Training is conducted in the extensive College grounds on a Wednesday and Thursday afternoon during the Christmas and Easter Terms, and once a term a Field Day is granted for members of the CCF to conduct specialist training throughout Northern Ireland. More information on each sections activities is given in the respective sections within the site. Field Days take place in October, March and May (Pioneer Company only). We also attend two camps per year; one at Easter and one over the Summer Holidays. Typically these camps are week long residentials and give an excellent opportunity for keen cadets to practice the skills learnt throughout the year.

I hope you enjoy this site, and that it proves both informative and entertaining. If you have any questions of queries, please do not hesitate to email me at webmaster@behindlines.com for more information.

The following downloads have been provided free of charge and on the understanding that where they are used they will be properly credited as such. A lot of hard work and time has gone into their compilation and they are available for free distribution among Cadet Forces who wish to extract as much or as little as they wish.

If there is anything you wish to submit for inclusion into this section of the site for distribution, please E-Mail me and I will see it gets included.

February 2010: There is a new members only location on the site to download forms and letters for camps, etc. It can be visited here, but you will need a username and password to enter. E-Mail me for the password, or ask in school.
