Hmm, don't know about that. I think you will only be asked to name two... Most people say Hunter and Finch.ADDiction wrote:Most importantly, Victoria Cross recipients.
I don't think there is a single most important question that you will be asked. But one you missed out from your list is...
Q- what is the role of RM?
Make sure you know the answer to that one. 'Tis rather important...
Roll off...?
Taken from "wikipedia"
Role
The Royal Marines are a maritime-focused, amphibious, light infantry force capable of deploying at short notice in support of the United Kingdom Government's military and diplomatic objectives overseas and are optimised for highly manoeuvreable operational situations. As the United Kingdom Armed Forces' specialists in cold weather warfare the Corps provide lead element expertise in the NATO Northern Flank and are optimised for high altitude operations.
In common with the other armed forces, the Royal Marines can provide resources for Military Aid to Civil Authority and Military Aid to Civil Power operations.

You're only going to get asked 2 or 3 questions max on history and what the Marines are up to now.
I got asked the birth date of the corps and to explain some of the bits of the badge. Don't get too hung up on it though pal, they don't expect you to be able to write a book about it and it's only a small part of a bigger picture that they're looking at.

Aways look on the bright side of life.
