Wise words Daveb. It doesn't get any easier (much harder in fact) you just get used to it which itself is a great feeling.
What you don't come across on the PRMC is the complete degradation that comes with savage phys, not much food or drink and very little sleep when you pissed wet through and freezing your tits off. On top of that you're learning all the time and have to stay switched on. Not easy but then if it was then everyone would be a bootneck
Remeber this though....(from some book or other about the Corps)
"In our compulsive consumer orientated society, which is fast losing its direction, becoming fat and pot bellied, where discipline is scorned and the scramble for wealth is foremost in the minds of our youth, the green beret of the Royal Marines Commando stands alone as being a rare pearl of great price.
It is a symbol of excellence, dedication and professionalism, an accolade for those who push themselves beyond the limit of normal human endurance.
In an age when standards are crumbling, the Green Beret is as British as the Union Jack, for it represents true grit and dogged individual determination.
The Green Beret is not for sale, thousands have sought to attain it, but along the way many have wilted and failed. It is a classless symbol of fortitude and achievement."
