Hi Claude,
I think this was intended as a play on the expression, "Greetings, space
cadets," which is in itself a reference to the old Space Cadet radio
show. A somewhat obscure American cultural reference, in no way intended
as connected with actual military cadets.
Oops, thanks for the explanation, Andy - and my apologies for the
misunderstanding, Peter: apart my ignorance of American culture, the
recurring war theme in your post also bent my (mis)understanding of the
word.
cheers
Claude
