Commander Pamela Audley served as Commanding Officer at Quadra from 2005-2008.  As we celebrate 50 years of women at HMCS Quadra it seems appropriate to share this episode with all Alumni.  She was the first and still is the only female to serve as XO and CO at the camp.   It was a real honour to interview her and learn so much about her past Cadet career and life.

Pam talks about some of her mentors, many of her favourite memories about some Quadra antics!  She was also the first female CIC Officer to win the Massey Memorial Sword on her BOQ Course in 1986.  Pam was grateful to work in Provincial Corrections in her civilian life and ironically it was a perfect fit for her to carry on through years of summer training at HMCS Quadra.  She plans on staying involved in the Cadet world as a Regional Advisor and will be at numerous ACR’s throughout the Spring and some CTC’s in the Summer.
