After 9 weeks in 1 Tp Hunter Coy, I finally got into 2 Tp and on the road to returning to training. Did a week in the gym with 2A, then in their infinite wisdom they threw me on Violent Entry with 892 Tp for shits and giggles. Not picked up a bergan in 4 months, never mind, 10 miles up big hills in Wales in 25 degree heat shouldn't be a problem, should it?! 
Anyhow, got back from that, straight into 2B, one bottom field session in loose order and apparently I'm fit enough to crack a cheeky Wednesday with full kit? In this case they were right, fortunately, passed both Endurance and Tarzan, cracked my tests 3 days later, 30 miler Wed just gone. That, without any shadow of a doubt, was the single most emotional, hardest day of my life. And I don't intend to repeat it!So there we go, green lid, pass for duty in six days
Only 12 weeks late in the end 
Despite only being in the troop a few days I seem to know a lot of them, there's 27 of us, with over half having done a tour with Hunter at one stage or another! Can't wait for Thursday to thin out on leave with the fabled Green Beret on me noggin 
Hungover doesn't come close 
Will still be around here now and then, on leave for three weeks, doing six or seven weeks at CTC afterwards before buggaring off to drive for two years.
