Danny i will correct you there the 2 week extention to training does not come into effect until after Jan 1st..... So troops after this date will have to do the 2 weeks extra training at ctc. Those troops joining before this date learn the extra wepeons etc at there units
You go in soon don't you Danny hope you have fun hehehe

Nice one foxtricks.
I thik the orange tabs are given to new recruits,so that if they make a mistake,the drill instructors(?) can see that they are new..
one question,you said that of 55,there were only 45 left...
why did they leave/get booted out?

cheers, hi, yeah the orange tabs are just to show everyone ur stupid basically and when you do something wrong they're a *little* more leniant about it. now tho we're supposed to know what we're doing.
i think we started with 55 and thats now down to 47, i think its
3 medical discharges
2 backtrooped due to illness (i think both have opted out now)
3 opt-outs
and thats only after 3 weeks...
