Didn't spot that one!

Attention to detail, common sense and to conduct yourself in a manner as to warrant respect. Practice those three then move onto higher skills. But personally i'd master these basic skills to become a better man before you even consider becoming a good officer.

So there is one whole letter out of place, are you really trying to tell me that this means he has no common sense and doesn't deserve respect, BOLLOCKS, this is the second time this man has been put down by 2 people that have no more authority than he does on the site, you have no right to put this man down like that, the man is only looking for a bit of advice.

Your mother likes you I presume.

Whats your brother called Stinky Furbey????

Just stop asking childish and bone questions, sort out your spelling and use lower and upper case letters in their correct places and then maybe just maybe some people will in fact give you a fairly reasonable reply to you questions.

Because at the moment If I was the leader of a Boy Scout Troop I'd have real reservations about letting you join even as a bloody Woggle!!!

The things I were told to do are as follows:

Enter as many competitions as you can - races (running, cycling, triathlons etc.) and if possible get a team together and enter as a team. They want to see competitiveness and a drive to win.

Do as many things as possible for charity. This actually needs some organisation to do it properly, especially if you have a team, all of whom need to raise money. Alternatively you can just go round friends asking them to put in whatever they can and just send it to a charity.

Anything that takes you out of your comfort zone! If you are sitting in tutor (or wherever) at college and a teacher asks for a volunteer - YES! Straight away, the more you think about it the less likely you are to do it so just get stuck in, it all looks good.

Fun stuff! Do what you want to do for God's Sake! Joining the Marines is not ALL about showing you can do things you would really rather not, AIB will be just as impressed if you say I signed up for this because I thought it would be a laugh, not because it would be difficult.

On saturday I did my first parachute jump (static line). Why? Because I felt like it! I'm not scared of heights so it was not massively out of my comfort zone it was just something I felt like doing. Bungee Jump next!!!

Sorry for the essay,

Fred

seb

Now now jimbob calm down. As i've already explained to bates by PM this was not an attack. These are core skills i firmly believe all men must develop to succeed in any field.

Sonne, you never use capital 'i's. Attention to detail mate.
