1990/09 - Tri Service Officer Cadet Course
1990
Launched in 1990, the Tri-Service Officer Cadet Course fostered joint training and understanding among Air Force, Army, and Navy cadets.
On 17 September 1990, the 42-week Tri-Service Officer Cadet Course was inaugurated at the Officer Cadet School. It allowed Officer Cadets from the Air Force, Army, and Navy to better understand tri-Service operations and provide more opportunities for interaction. They would train in a common environment for 19 weeks before undergoing further training specific to their respective vocations.
