hey mate, i got flat feet as well, and it is a hindrance but i can assure you while you're in training you can get orthotics through the core, but in the end i never bothered because its mega uncomfortable to put on and takes to long to get use to. but you won't have any problems and i can assure yo...

we did even get weakend leave on the first week, they had a leash around our necks, it wasn't until the second week when we got like 2 hours ashore

yea i agree with thte others give it a go because you have up until week 21 to leave so that leaves you plenty of time to get out. plus at the same time experience the better thigns, week 1 and 2 are very tedious so just stick with it for the first bit.

Artist can correct me if im wrong, but i believe back in the day you use to do final ex and then the next week you'd be on kings squad because they use to do commando tests week 25 or something like that. but don't quote me that.
