[tridgway]

Hi Im hoping to join as a squipper and am at the stage of waiting for the results of my medical. I have 1 question, will the raf teach me to swim because i can only just swim im very poor at it. (feel free to slag me)

Thanks in advance for the replys

i dont know wether theyll teach you to swim, why dont you go down to your local swimming pool and take it upon yourself to learn to swim?

Yeah go and get a few basic lessons to improve you're basic swimming skills.
It's just your technique that needs work.
