Corps History

354 RCSCC Invincible was initially formed as a satellite division of 102 RCSCC Fraser in September of 2007 largely through the efforts of Commanding Officer Lt(N) Ron Juliusson. It became a corps of its own upon reaching 30 cadets in December 2009 and had its stand-up parade on January 31st of 2010.

The corps Latin motto is “Sequimini Optima”, which in English means “Aim to be the Best”. The ship’s crest consists of a golden trident within the navy coronet, both of which are symbolic of the power of the British Navy.
