definately not allowed to wear a watch and as far as interview goes, in mine the corporal just told me how i was getting on. It was the same for almost everyone else. Some lads were asked about victoria crosses and the ships marines use and also questions about training and pay etc. I dont think anyone was asked anything else and it only lasts 5 mins tops. Hope that helps.

Go there expecting it to be hard - the worst thing to do is underestimate it (thats what i did, and i suffered)

Nope, i passed (POC) but not without significant post-traumatic stress :lol:

Seriously though, if you are the "last guy back" then they make your life very hard.

The whole time it was "you effing this, you effing that" - the only time they we nice when they said "why don't you come back in six months eh mate?" - i said i'd try my luck for today which was quickly responded to in a "friendly" manner :D - you can almost taste the hate!
