A similar concern from this report was raised again 1 time later. See the linked reports.
The coroner's concerns
1. lack of AED and AED trained first aider
“The lack of an AED and AED trained first aider at this type of cadet activity, poses a risk to future cadets”
2. ineffective communication between cadets and staff
“There was no check to ensure that the communication was effective between the two groups in their final resting positions”
3. unclear communication checks policy
“The new policy in place dealing with communication checks- Air Cadet Fieldcraft Training Instruction Number 7 -Improvised Camping in a Field Environment, remains unclear in relation to communication checks”
4. lack of explicit communication requirement
“Instructors therefore should be directed to ensure that effective communications exist between cadets and supervising staff before the 2 groups retire at night”
