History -
This Corps was formed 12 Feb 1971 under the sponsorship of Glace Bay School Board and designated as St Anne's Scotia Cadet Corps. The Corps is affiliated with the Nova Scotia Highlanders. In 86 Glace Bay School Board ceased to be a sponsor with this corps and to 91 does not have a sponsor. CF790 96/97 lists sponsor as Royal Canadian Legion - Branch 2 as sponsor, no auth.
Eff 22 Apr 99 (D Cdts Adm) designation for this corps changed to Cape Breton Highlanders Cadet Corps.
This corps has a long and productive history, contributing a large number of its former members to Canada ’s Forces, in general and 2 NS Highlanders (CB) in particular. It was begun as a school corps and was originally designated Scotia Army Cadet Corps. A few years ago the Cape Breton Highlanders Association became its sponsor and the corps subsequently requested and received authority for the name change and to wear the cap badge of the CBH. The present Commanding Officer is Capt Joe Worthington. The corps trains and holds regular parades at the Glace Bay Armouries.
