Thankfully the GCP will take care of the squaddies under German law - I'll only deal with issues relating to offences committed uder military law

I'll be defending naughty soldiers at court martials and representing them in police stations.

CAn't understand a word of German - myself and the wife have some learning tapes which we have just started.

Looking forward to the Oktoberfest!

Off there for my first posting. Would like to know what it is like there - housing, area etc etc.

Just to let you all know - passed out at Cranwell on 31st March and am now a Flt Lt. Off to RAF Innsworth for three weeks now on legal induction training!

Best of luck everyone!

Interview - know current affairs and all about RAF - history and present deployment etc and also all about the job (where you will train etc).

Medical - you should have declared any medical probs on your form - if not tell them there - otherwise you may be seen as being dishonest.don't get to drunk ...

I'm off on Fam Visit to Cranwell on 9th/10th December and still have not had confirmation of my medical/security clearances so you are not alone!

Looks like you've answered your question.

HAving checked with OASC today it is only the last 5 years for myself and my spouse - which could have proved a headache trying to get the addresses of places I lived in University.

Security checks BTW take between 6 - 8 weeks according to the very helpful lady at OASC.

I had a letter yesterday from OASC regarding the living arrangments of my wife for the year 1999 (before we met). The letter was not particularly well written and when I rang them I said to the lady there that she had lived at her parents address for the whole of 1999.

I then rang back today to ...

I'm on the SERE course in Feb as well (pending final clearances - fingers crossed!)

I'm also from South Wales - Newport to be exact. I'm going in as a solicitor. Where are you from?

As far as I am aware (correct me if I'm wrong) the course is 8 weeks - the first 4 will be mostly physical ...

Well done! Just got to wait till April now

I'm off in Feb - hopefully - subject to med/security clearances!

Just done my 1.5 mile run - in a respectable 9.01 mins

Thank god my pecs are not hurting anymore!

Right I'm off to make a fruit smoothie in my new blender!

Just started up the local gym weightraining and swimming in preparation for SERE course in Feb - my arms and chest are killing me!

I used to do alot of weights but I can't lift my arms at the moment - and running is out of the question as too painful!

:cry:

Might have to start listening to Eye ...

Thanks folks - I'll keep you all posted - just dropped my medical form down the quacks today!
