Lets get f*kin s*itters!

Allways used to work for me.

Fibula who said anything about fibula?! (the magic edit button :lol: ) If somebody could fix me up, the Corps would be my chosen career mate. But the PMO obviously twigged that i was broken beyond repair and thats why he discharged me. Im hoping that i may be able to get some kind of surgery or spec...

I shouldn't worry about the motivation thing too much either buddy. If somebody could fix me up 100% right now id be straight back to CTC. If being a Royal Marine is what you truely want you'll find the motivation, just dont flap and take your time.
(Im mega corps pissed and i was only in a year.)

Andy, i was in week 17 of training when i broke my ankle, (trimalleolar fracture) broke my tibia, fibia and talus. I also had my ankle pinned and was in hunter company for roughly 6 months before they told me i was going to be medically discharged. Consequently im a civi again. As Harry said rest up...

Bang it up her!

Chubs you old son of a gun, how the devil are you? Don't be ashamed buddy! you would of passed out if you could of, its not your fault your patellas knackered. If the corps didnt think you could of made it they wouldnt of let you pass selection or the PRMC. I still have my bitter and twisted moments...

Yeh there is a sikh recruit at Lympstone and a trained rank who is also a sikh in the corps. Dont worry about your phys mate, you'll be fit enough for training. As long as you can do the basics same as prmc thats all they ask for, in fact when i joined up allot of lads did worse at the start of basi...

Dont worry about it buddy they wont say anything about scracthes and scuffs, just make sure there clean and polished including the soles, ready for your arrival at Lympschvitz. P.s You only ever bull the toe caps on your drill boots and drill shoes and theywill be issued to you at ctc.

Thanks for the posts everybody, they were really appreciated when i had a couple of bad days. Just a bit of an update, i started some work experience with a guy doing tree surgery and landscape gardening work last monday and im loving it! Its hard graft, outside and you get to play with big power to...

Sneaky just to let you know, last i heard Rob was being medically disharged. I think they wrapped on him as it would take too much time and money to get him fixed. Saying that though i've been outside for a bit now, so im not 100% upto date. Its a shame cos he's another good bloke who seems to have ...

Well i left lympschvitz for the very last time today. My year anniversary was on the very same day of my Med Board when i was officialy binned two days ago. :( Threaders. I handed all my kit back in and walked out the gate today, im absolutely gutted, i miss the lads already. Although my career was ...

Cheers Sully, hunter definetly is a balls ache at times, but then again every aspect of training is. :lol: Artist just to let you know Mike's hip is all okay, he had the MRI and the fracture was just starting to go again. So he's managed to stop it just in time, a few more weeks in hunter and it wil...

Your right Dave, upstairs is where it counts. You allways get a few blokes along the way such as myself who get broken and consequently medically discharged but thats the name of the game. As Sully said, when your dangling piss wet through cold and yomping at 2 in the morning thats where it matters....

If you want to get your cv up go for a 3 mile warm up run which you should aim to do it in 22mins comfortably (if you cant do it in 22, dont worry just go as fast as you can so your hangin out at the end) Then find yourself a big ass steep hill at least 100m long, sprint up the hill 7 times if you c...

The difference though mate is athletes dont go on 30milers or yomps with 100lbs+ of kit on their back over long periods of time. Even if i did manage to pass out i would instantly get downgraded to smething along the lines of chef or clerk and i sure as hell didnt join to do those jobs.
