Right,

Artist: I apologize fully and sincerely. You'll get an email with a proper apology later today.

As for MRB, not fussed about what you have to say.

There is an RMR signaller attached to a fighting company at 42. He's still RMR but took a full-time draft. Although he is a rubber dagger, he gets the respect he deserves. He's a non-emotional yomper, most signallers are, and he cracked a Norway (which tis he truest test of soldiering ability post t...

Hello Sticky Blue,

I have been told that I'll have to leave the Corps. I am still having trouble accepting that fact.

Also, a few of your lot were down at 42 for the Al Faw Peninsula Dinner. Hoofing. Do you do weddings?

Doc, Okay, okay. I apologize. But if you challenge someone who's done 32 weeks at Lympstone, then expect trouble. Also, I've just spoken with the MA advisor and they're actually shrinking the branch even more. It looks like only between 2 and 3 bootnecks will get on a course a year. And you're right...

Doc,

Who gave me the info concerning being an RN Medic? The branch advisor did. But obviously you know better, some how.

Doc, Full respect to your blue beret, but f*ck-off you fat matelot. All you lot are ever good at is eating pies and whinging. Why don't I come across as a booty? Because I am intelligent? We're thinking soliders. As for joining as a RN medic, that's not possible. I'd be given less priority than civv...

MRB, I am just trying to get some int so I am prepared for the course: that's just good skills and drills mate. The reason I am asking about getting enough to eat and sleep is because you don't get that at any time in RM basic training. Maybe the P-Coy ethos is different. As for asking about the phy...

Sully:

1) I am a Royal Marine. What are you?

2) I want to know because I am looking into becoming a medic with 16 Air Assault Brigade.

3) You say I've surely worked with the Paras or 59/29. Why is that?

All Arms Pre Parachute Selection Course

Hello Everyone, Has anyone done the All Arms Pre Parachute Selection Course (aka All Arms P-Company)? If so, can you tell me a bit about it. My questions are: Do you get the weekends off (e.g. Friday night to Monday morning)? What do you do on a given day? Is it just phys all day or what? Are there ...
