Jesus ! she looks like a village Mong, not being nasty or PC etc, but she does look to me like a council estate gold digger. Badly maintained teeth, complexion and general demeanor.
I hardly noticed the scar at first also it begs the question, why did it take her so long to claim ?
Was a suitable risk assessment carried out by a competent person? - No
Was a briefing given to the cadets (children) before the exercise was undertaken? - No
Did one of the children suffer an injury which could have been reasonable foreseen? - Yes
Then get your f*****g hand in your pocket a pay out you bunch of scuffers!
Simple eh?
ACF Scotland does seem to have a problem with training safety and maintaining a duty of care to its cadets. If they're not being injured in rock falls, then they drown them in the Hebrides
I haven't read the full accident report (which you can get from the above link), but I understand the ACF officer was not fully qualified and failed even to carry out a headcount, which alone could have saved Kaylee's life. He obviously left his red book in the Mess that day. Good night in the bar, sir?
Most UK Bdes have a Training Safety WO on the establishment whose job amongst others is to provide the world's supply of risk assessment templates, including that for TR&A, which I take it was what the cadets were doing. When County HQ submitted their greenfield form (application to mount an exercise) the risk assessment should have been attached, and a recce carried out.

Anybody been disciplined or resigned I wonder?
Any ACF Scotland AIs wish to comment?
I don't think it is appropriate to comment further until the Inquiry has concluded, I think the inquest has been held but the Inquiry to the incident is still ongoing.
