lol nothing to worry mate, im sure when we get to depot we will be the same saying how good the paras are . Saying that though i've got a mate in the royal marines and he's already giving me stick for joing the parasparaprep1 wrote:a bit off topic but, i was just on youtube watching some vids on the paras, and i noticed on every single one there are loads of little twats who feel the need to bring up how the royal marines are so much 'tougher' and 'better', i cant help but wonder why they feel the need to spread their insignificant opinions around the site, i know its pretty pathetic of me to care but it just makes my blood boil !
ah that feels better now ive had my rant!

Cheers for the advice , also someone mentioned to me taking baby wipes as well because apparently when you go on exercise all the toilet roll gets nicked.gpw2009 wrote:It was a back injury mate, thats why it has took 2 years to be able to re-apply!!

Advice..... mmmmmmm Just listen to what your told to do, the training staff all say "don't think, just do" which is true! Be prepared physically too, it makes life so much easier with the PT and stuff. The main thing is to try and get as much stuff off the kit list your given as possible. You do need it ALL

You do get some tissues in your ration pack though!
Forgot to say, try and sort out a wash shave kit for the field. Small versions of everything, i'll PM you and show you the sort of stuff!

Take some twisters mate, a few pairs, they are always getting lost when your rushing around changing kit. Bungees too mate, can't have enough when your putting up your poncho!jxnxg wrote:somebody told me bungees and twisters but i dont want to take them if i'm not spose to great if someone knows.
