Do you get to choose if you have the LSW or the L85?

you have two LSW gunners per section and it just changes every exercise,the GPMG is the one you want to avoid,it's a bitch to yomp with

No its not all screaming, if you do what the corporals say, when they say it at 100mph then they will be happy. Saying that there is always one who lets the troop down, which results in the troop being punished.
