You can try mate but don't count on it. I only met one mate in my company who wanted to transfer, never understood myself.
He was a real fitness freak even started talking about leaving! The result ? ? ? they said no.
I would not set my heart on it. If you want to join the Para’s then join them, you wont pull a fast one on the Army, believe me. You should have put your foot down at the start. Sorry mate but ask on this forum if anyone knows someone who did transfer and watch the result.

I see this as a
'Im not fit enough for the para's so i'll chose the second best option the infantry, ok so now i want to change my mind and go for the paras to piss people about'
do you're 28 days, perform to the maximum and next time choose what you realy want to do.

Wow, i so tottaly didn't expect that kind of reply, thankfully i'm lieing and i did..Fusilier wrote:I wonder if the other Infantry units are doing a second best job in Iraq and Afghanistan.'Im not fit enough for the para's so i'll chose the second best option the infantry, ok so now i want to change my mind and go for the paras to piss people about'
So what if the infantry aren't working in Helmand, so what if the infantry don't jump out of planes, so what if the infantry don't wear a red lid.. who cares we all go as one, i'd advise some of these die hard 'Paras are the best for ever and ever ah-men.' to go research a bit of history reguarding their birth their job and what they do, because i think a fiew of the other 'We'r paras we kick ass even till' the last man' would be supprised at how many times they have been bailed out by smaller untrained regiments..Saying that, (I'd like people like Fusilier to read this) No regiment is the bees knees in some situations i.e the infantry, in other situations they are.. can people please start looking on both sides of the fence? not just stand on it and spit down on the floor below..
We'r all doing the same job reguardless of wether we can carry a telegraph pole 2.5 miles over an assault course or not.. love the paras love their job seems fantastic to do it, Infantry is my first choice based on family then efficiency not beeing the best.
