Bonjour all, fianlly passed out on the 10th with my orignal troop (912) by far the proudest moment of my life. The tests were hard but not as i expected, probably well for me i knew this was the last thing so i was buzzing from the start. We started with 53 and passed out with 23 of which 10 were th...

Hey all, another brief update on whats its been like since i last posted. First things first weeks 22-29 have been hard but fun, learning a shed load in every aspect of training. Best thing from this was Final Ex, hoofin apart from the many hours we spent yomping! Worst thing probably Tarzan Assult,...

Bonjour all, just a quick update on how its been for me so far. Passed Bottom field didnt do get the record (some lad a troop above me got 2:55 :o ), glad to have it back in the hands of a recurit rather then a pongo. Also just completed 'Dig Exe' which was for me a massive hang out! All stages were...

Hello mate, life after foundation eaiser not really, sure you get more time but not a lot more as it depends on what you have on the next day. In my experience foundation wasnt that bad but moving into the new Grots was a hell of a lot better. Make sure there always on the ball as theres a treat in ...

Alright Dave chin up, didnt notice you were on here but nevermind. Training is same old same old although aint quite the same as most people are leaving so theres only 19 of us originals left, troop only stands at 31 and im sure after easter leave a few more will opt out. Hope it all works out well ...

Hey, ill try and get on whenever im free but yea admin somthing im not looking forward to. Just about packed everything kinda ready to go but i couldnt resist a last knees up last night and have wee hangover but ill let you know of how it all goes, cheers.

Hello guys, so ill be in 911 troop then, strange for it to coincide with a date as significant and sep 11. I doubt they will leave the "911" out for respectful reasons, saying that i dont know if they have ever missed any numbers out for any reason. And at what stage do we get the troop T-...

Hello mate, a few post's below yours says "starting this month" will anwser your question. Theres a chap Marine1 on that date also, as far as your fitness if its drasticly below PRMC standerds then you will probably be backtrooped but i doubt its that bad. When i joint in early 2003 (im re...

Cheers will do, i did my PRMC on the 27th of sep. Training is getting a bit tedious now ive been doing the same thing day in day out, ive mixed it up a little but its as you said im trying to ram as much as possible into these 2 remaining weeks. Oh i got my speedo's today :oops: looked like a right ...

Hey dude, im starting on the 21st :P , when did u do your PRMC? Anyway nice to see someone thats on the same date from these forums. Not long to go now aye, training wise (weekly) i do 3 five mile runs onto an assult course, 1 swim (i no i should do more) and a couple af 1.5 mile runs best effort. W...

I lost my GCSE certifiactes, i have the carbon print outs though which states my marks and all college certifiactes but they were not accepted even though i reached 7 C's and above in maths and english so ill have to sit the NAMET test, shouldnt be too much to worry about. But its costly to get new ...

Ha ha, i would imagine you would have to wasted play that one, however i do believe that saying in which one isnt to mock something unless its been tried. Even if it is a tad bit unpleasant, well for the looser anyway.

Cheers dude

Hey chaps, was out last night having a few beers as you do, and i got thinking about that spoofing game. I cant remember how to play or the rules just wondering if anyone could enlighten me. I know its got some coins and something about "the Gentlemans Enclosure" its just it has kept me up...

Hey mate, thats something i had to think about under different circumstances though. I completed college and got accepted for an appernticeship with Virgin Atlantic but sep 11 happened and it went tits up to say the least. I was being told i was wasting myself by the AFCO by joining the marines as t...
