In October, Hurricane Mellissa made landfall on the Island of Jamaica, bringing destruction and death to various parts of the island. Within a couple of days , the members of the St Jago High Cadet Unit quickly answered the call of duty to their school and, by extension, Jamaica.

The streets of Spanish Town were painted green and gold as the students marched to the various, previous locations of St Jago High School. Of course, the cadets were present to provide assistance in the form of escorts and crowd control.
