FAK's': Name given to Staff Cadets who were once Officer Cadets, stands for "Fucking ADFA Cadets"

What is the above supposed to mean? I have asked a Duntroon Sword of Honour winner and he reckons its nonsense.

--I've both attended and instructed there, and FAK is used. I don't recall it being used when I was a cadet, but when I returned as an instructor it was in common use. Don't think it is relevant to the main page though.

Also, what is the staff cadet and officer cadet difference? I've met Casey et al at Duntroon but never this stuff. Do people with no adf connection write this stuff up?

- A cadet at RMC is known as a Staff Cadet. Cadets at ADFA are known as Officer Cadets. The abbrivations are SCDT and OFFCDT respectively.

So who removed it? Its known it was there now by adfa and rmc grads so in future, keep that crap off adf pages or I will make sure the media know.
