In episode 2, season 4 of the Quadra Alumni Podcast we talk to a dedicated couple that has been involved in training Sea Cadets for much of the past 50 years.  Darrell and Sandy Dudley join me for a discussion about their Sea Cadet and Officer careers and most importantly their time at HMCS Quadra.  Darrell is from RCSCC Amphion and Sandy is originally from RCSCC Rainbow, they met at an OJT Reunion at the famous Big Bad John’s bar at the Strathcona Hotel in Victoria.  For many years both Darrell and Sandy have served in the CIC at the local corps level and in Quadra.  It would be difficult to estimate how many young Sea Cadet lives this couple has influenced and continues to influence.

You’ll hear some of Sandy’s memories from taking the Medical Assistant Course and then working as an OJT in Sick Bay.  Darrell tells us about his memories in the QSM as a cadet musician and how influential that part of his life was.  Later in life, the 2 Dudley daughters join Sandy and Darrell at summer training in Quadra.  Please enjoy this episode with two very dedicated Quadra Alumni members.
