Sea Cadet Corps (United Kingdom)

The Sea Cadet Corps (SCC) is a UK cadet force, that follows the rank structure, traditions, values and ethos of the Royal Navy (even though it is not controlled and funded by the Royal Navy in the same way the Combined Cadet Force, Air Training Corps or Army Cadet Force are respectively controlled by their parent sections of the Ministry of Defence). It is not a pre-service organisation, however a significant minority of its members do join the Royal Navy or Royal Marines.
