We would like to thank those RCSCC Cadets and CIC Officers for submitting your video. We have learned that we did not receive authorization from DND for the Sea Cadets or CIC Officers to participate in this video. As a result, we will not be able to use any Sea Cadet videos submitted. We are really saddened. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. :(

We remain committed to producing a thank you video with the Navy League Cadets.

Keep the clips coming! Thank you!
