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:
“This fantastic state of mind, of a humanity that has outrun its ideas, is matched by a political scene in the grotesque style, with Salvation Army methods, hallelujahs and bell-ringing and dervishlike repetition of monotonous catchwords, until everybody foams at the mouth. Fanaticism turns into a means of salvation, enthusiasm into epileptic ecstacy, politics becomes an opiate for the masses, a proletarian eschatology; and reason veils her face.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“Yet time and space are but inverse measures of the force of the soul. The spirit sports with time.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
