I got my aplication form from the internet and then sent it off, and then recieved a letter saying when I have to go to the AFCO so I havent actually seen them yet.

I wouldn't know, sorry.

You'll find anything you need to know with google.com

I understand that the search button is incredibly well hidden and protected by ancient magic, curses, and the evil incarnation of Santa claus so the general rule is that you'll need to know current affairs ( www.bbc.co.uk is most useful), recent operations and deployments (Iraq, Afghanistan, Northern Ireland etc), and what's in the green information book. If you haven't got one then you'd better ask for one sharpish, and if you have then you really needs to know just about everything inside.

[voodoo sprout]

This one is 'CP7 June 2001', though June 2001 was a while ago so there may be a more recent version.

ok cheers, i have a slightly more up to date one CP7 Sept 2001, but this is for commandos and i hope to apply as an officer, i guess it is mostly the same except PRMC and training...
