List of Australian Navy Cadet units
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
This is a list of all Australian Navy Cadet (ANC) units and flotillas.
Naming protocols for units[edit]
Units in the ANC that are fully recognised Training Ships (TS) are sometimes named after ships of the Royal Australian Navy or the location the unit is based. Units that are not fully recognised training ships are known as New Training Ships (NTS). There are also cadet places in school called Cadets in High School (CIHS) and are usually named after their suburb or school.

Flotillas[edit]
In late 2009 or early 2010, the decision was made to stop using Area Commands such as South Queensland HQ, North Queensland HQ and New South Wales HQ, and replace these with Flotilla Commands. Each Flotilla would have an average of five units in its command area and would report directly to the newly appointed 'Director of Flotillas'.[1]
