if you were in and fancied going 2 sqn I'd say, yeah beast yourself stupid just like the better known paras - la dee da! its a feckin airborne unit for christs sake - it aint meant to be easy! 2sqn aint as popular or as known as the para battalions but by christ the fitness levels needed to get in are on par. and like iv said airborne units are not mean to be easy to get into thats why when you do pass your in the airborne brotherhood - for life!

Just don't say that to the first Rock who criticises you on PGAC! :wink:

:drinking:
I must disagree, please do express that opinion in exactly that tone to as many of the PGAC staff as you possibly can. In fact why stop there? Express it to every Rock you ever come in contact with.

Trust me, they will appreciate your reluctance to follow the herd and will listen to your points of view. I am certain you will make a valuable member of your TG course, for about 10 minutes before you run crying home to your Mum.

The lads don't need people like you. For the love of all things rum bottle shaped please withdraw your application now.

Regards

PS I know this fool posted ages ago but I am a busy chap nowadays and don't get the opportunity to respond as often as I would like. Please indulge my cynicism.
