Mid March brought an important visitor to the #7 Captain Cook Royal Canadian Sea Cadets Seal Cove Drill hall with the Prince Rupert Cadets hosting Major Novak on March 16th, 2023. 

The Major who is a decorated veteran, has served as a Cadet Instructor Cadre Officer in many roles and now works as the Officer Commanding the interior zone of Pacific Region Cadets. 

As part of his visit to the North Coast, the Pacific region Commander gave the cadets pointers on drill and shared his experiences as a cadet and military officer. 

Captain John A. Callaghan noted that the Prince Rupert area cadets were thrilled to learn from such an experienced and knowledgeable leader. 

The visit offering  an opportunity for the cadets to gain insight into the cadet program and to learn about the various career paths available to them, the chance to learn through the Major's experience making for an invaluable experience for the local  youth.
