Jan, May and Sep

Numbers vary depending on intake date, most in Sept, least in May.

As for commissioning into Paras - god knows - based on the standards required and the size of the regiment I would expect it to be in single figures but don't quote me on it.

well with your command of the English language I would suggest its the only thing you are good for. Maybe skip Sandhurst and go straight to the council stores and draw one bucket and one mop.

As a potential officer myself I can assure you this lot are trying to do you a favour - high standards are expected of officers and obtaining a commission is no easy thing. I've been through the RCB once and was considered a borderline case and asked to come back in a year so I speak the truth.

You have a lot to learn!
