I am told it is best to shut up and get on with it. I am not yet anywhere near becoming an rm and therefore im not speaking from experience but i ahve been told to maxomise your chances do not stand outin any way shape or form. I don't think just being the grey man is going to work though as you also eed to have high amounts of endurance and determination to get you through the commando course let alone sf selection.

Easy mushy peasy. More like a day on the beach than a training course
Dreams are fine, but comments like this annoy people!
However I wish you Good Luck

Oh right, I apologise lads but as you can imagine you get alot of guys on here who make comments like that for real and it pisses people off especially when they train so hard!
I am only a wannabe at the moment as well and so cannot say much but I dont make comments like that.
Sorry again chaps
Cheers

Its no worries i doubt. I mean personally i understand what you mean. If i hadnt noticed the sarcasm i would have said the exact same thing as you do get people who think they wil pass easily.which annoys people. Personally i spend alot of time training so i would be annoyed and see your point mate. Passing the commando course is probably a better thing to concentrate on rather than the sbs. Personally if i wanted to eventually end up in the sbs(not saying that i do)i would concentrate on passing the commando course and then take it from there.
