I start basic on Monday has anyone got any tips, anything at all?

Alright Tennant ,

Best tip i can give you for basic is to either stay away from the nobheads in your platoon or take em into the dryin room an give em the good news becasue they will make youre life very painfull if you dont, we get thrashed daily because off ppl messin around all the time an our platoon staff take pride in punishin us hahah i.e ski squats holdin your rifle out infront of you for over 40 mins or range olympics with all you kit on and a mukker on your back with all his kit on or steeple chase at 4am thats when basic gets hard.
Other than that tho its all as hard as you make it, what corps u goin for ?

RLC mate.cheers
