Army Cadet Force
Licensed Victuallers' School also temporarily houses an Army Cadet Force (ACF) unit: 4 Platoon (Irish Guards) Ascot of the Royal County of Berkshire ACF. Although the unit is not permanently based at Licensed Victuallers', it has established itself in the school and now recruits from the school, as well as the local and surrounding area. The cadet unit is mostly made up of Licensed Victuallers' pupils, but also includes cadets from Ascot and other nearby towns and villages.

Famous quotes containing the words army and/or force:
“Im the boss, youre an idiot. Youre the boss, Im an idiot.”
—Russian army saying, trans. by Vladimir Ivanovich Shlyakov (1993)
“It is the fixed that horrifies us, the fixed that assails us with the tremendous force of mindlessness. The fixed is a Mason jar, and we cant beat it open. ...The fixed is a world without fire--dead flint, dead tinder, and nowhere a spark. It is motion without direction, force without power, the aimless procession of caterpillars round the rim of a vase, and I hate it because at any moment I myself might step to that charmed and glistening thread.”
—Annie Dillard (b. 1945)
