AFTER reading the letter (November 12) about the Remembrance Day service in Bolton, I would just like to say that the “Young Lad” representing Bolton Sea Cadet was, in fact, my daughter. She did me very proud. She is 16-years-old and will be joining the Royal Navy in January. It really upsets me when people presume that all cadets from all the forces are boys. So please, give credit where and when it is due to the females cadets.
