'In 1948 the New Zealand Army established the Regular Force Cadet School, which operated continuously over a period of 43 years until its closure in 1991. During this period the School established itself as one of the most significant training establishments in the history of the New Zealand Army. In this history of the School, largely related through the eyes of the Cadets and their former instructors and mentors, author Richard Taylor conveys something of the atmosphere, the dedication and the enthusiasm engendered throughout the school during those years. containing many historical photographs and the comments of Cadets who passed through the school, this book will be treasured by all past Cadets, their families and friends'.
