Jumper Order has started here at the Academy which must mean the Summer is over and the cold is here to stay.  The Gate Guard said it was -2 Degrees at 0630 this morning so the Juniors on Ex SELF RELIANCE must be feeling the chill.  The Music On Fire event was spectacular - with the theme this year being 'Creation'. The timed fireworks and music were stunning and luckily the rain held off each night.
