Random Quesions RE: Paras/7RHA
Random Quesions RE: Paras/7RHA
1. Is the 26 week CIC course harder for Paras? (Not including P-Company obviously)
2. Can a person join The Regiment if they wear glasses?
3. Do Potential recruits do all their selection at the same ATC's as the rest of the army-so the interviews, 'BARB' test and 'Icebreaker'? Or do Parachute Regiment applicants undergo a more specific selection?
4. When it comes to applying for Airborne Artillery do you mention that at your selection center or do you find out after you have completed your training?
Cheers

I'm sure there are plenty of people in the army that wear glasses/contacts.confused_bolton_boy wrote:Well, can they?copymenu wrote: 2. Can a person join The Regiment if they wear glasses?

Fair enough. Just wanted to ask people that actually know what they're talking about. I'm just a wee bit confused about it, that's all. Some posts on this site suggest that a slightly lazy eye may stop you from joining the army. But I'm sure it said on a form I had that I should bring the glasses and the opticians prescription with me when I go to ADSC for the medical. Plus I definitely saw a soldier in afghanistan on a TV program wearing them and he was from 45. Commando but can Paras wear glasses or contact lenses? I wish people wouldn't make comments if they don't know what they're talking about, how am I supposed to know the chocolate from the bullsh*t?
