Dont put yourself down its only right that any person on any website is sceptical..I dont care mate..me.. I know who I am and what I am.................I just want to pass knowledge and experience to up and coming soldiers and in return I may meet some ex pals who know me so this is my purpose.....If it gets crap I will leave...

Fair do's mate
You will get to learn very quickly how many walter mittys turn up here quoting "I was RM/SAS/SBS/Para/FFL" one or two have even claimed all of them. Huge scepticism is developed within a week of joining.
My apologies if I have wronged you but you know how it is.
Cheers

This years course for 23 SAS 028 last years 027
Does this make me SF trained? NOPE
No offence but the course details are known to 100s of people each year

No probs... I was a reservist serving with 21 and I dont make any claims..I am not Hostage rescue trained or Bodygaurd to the queen or a f@#k muscle knobber...just a normal bloke who is endurance fit and passed the course..thats all...The only time in training I felt awsome was during contact drills on excersise and I am afraid thats as exciting as it got for me mate........

If you call ITV they know all the course info's as they had to put Jamie Draven and Ross Kemp through selection before they could do ultimate force, Kemp had the advantage because he had served with 3 para at goose green so when a fellow eastender asked:
Bloke: Did you ever, you know..
Kemp/Grant: What?
Bloke; Kill anyone..
Kemp/Grant: Yeah once, in the falkland but I dont want to talk abaat it orite. Hard Stare.
I am now going home............
