Yea I know, we used to get those kind of comparisons all the time from our instructors at the depot as well. But they have to be within reason and realistic. But I never heard any thing like that once on Sqn.
One that stuck in my mind, said by a Cpl during the first week at Catterick was "You are the Royal Marines of the RAF" At the time of course that felt great, but in hindsight....eeeeuggh...cringe.

Whilst the course is undoubtably hard, I don't know if that guy at the start would have encouraged me much.
