About this deal

The course was disbanded in 1981 due to MOD cost savings measures but, in the short time that it existed, Rowallan Division had served its purpose well in graduating significantly more young men into BRNC than would otherwise have been the case

This is awarded to the International Cadet who has produced an overall performance of particular merit. The Hodson's Horse Merit Award is donated by the Hodson's Horse British Officers' Memorial Trust. [42] The Commandant's Merit Award [ edit ] Towards the end of the course, greater emphasis was given to the preparation and delivery of more classroom orientated activities such as short briefs, lecturing and improving written communication skills and attending informal lectures from external speakers who had a record of excellence of leadership or personal achievement in their own areas of personal endeavour. Mr Heathcote says: “We did think from our times in training that we should be vying for a gold medal. We were getting really fast times. The principle role of RMAS is to provide the Field Army with officers. The primary means is through the delivery of the Commissioning Course (CC), preceeded by the PCCBC. Students on the CC are known as Officer Cadets (OCdts). The CC is three terms each of 14 weeks known as the Junior, Intermediate and Senior terms. Intakes join in Jan, May and Sep annually. Between the Junior and Intermediate terms OCdts conduct a week of Adventurous Training towards a qualification, they then use the qualification in the recess between the Inters and Seniors.

The Sovereign's Platoon, which wears multi-coloured lanyards, using the colours of all three Divisions, is selected on merit and is the best platoon amongst the Division; these officer cadets are chosen from a competition in drill, orienteering, shooting and a cross-country race, ensuring they are of the best in endurance and teamwork.

They even included a little booklet to show you how pleasant it would all be. Just a bit of adventure training really. Students on the course were given the nominal rank of Cadet and were paid the equivalent of a new entry junior sailor. Now in its twelfth full season of play and fast gaining a global reputation as a golfing masterpiece, Rowallan Castle’s extensive golf grounds are set within a historic 600-acre estate, with spectacular views of Ayrshire countryside and two of the region’s finest castles. Mr Heathcote says: “I wanted to do something completely different and I’ve always liked the outdoors. Every holiday I had at school and university I worked on farms.” I went to the course not really knowing what to expect but was soon briefed on the basic outline of the course. The course is academic, cultural and there are some real beasts of PT sessions, the memories of the pain of the stretcher race will always be with me, we also went on exercise in Dartmoor which although hard was an amazing experience and why I joined the Army! I arrived there nervous and when i found out that a lot of time would be given to presentations and public speaking I was extremely nervous as I’d never done anything similar in my life, apart from at RCB which i hated. Having finished the course I now have no problem with presenting to large groups of people whatever rank or service they are from. It was an extremely valuable course and I am sure that it will benefit me in my future Army career as I’m sure it will benefit all that have attended in the past.
