How many people are usually in a regiment then? I thought there was going to be loads of new soilder boys there?

hello mate, first off they cant sack you without proper cause. And from what i see you havent done anything wrong, youve not even signed anything saying youve accepted a job in the army. I suggest you read through your contract with them, see what you can find. Or go to the union if you have one ...

I posted a question on the last page but i don't think anybody see it so i'l ask again in a different manner. Going out on a night clubbing and drinking aint my scene, do you get encouraged to go out at night whilst at ITC? Just id rather stay in and do what needs to be done with maybe a little ...

No my fitness is fine, done the run in 9.43, which was better than almost everyone else at my selection (apart from the odd para)

Has anyone heard of british millitary fitness? Its a training programme run my ex forces, done all ...

Im doing exactly that mate.
Passed the adsc yesterday, was quite an intersting 2 days, glad i dont have to go back there though
