mind you, you lot should be WANTING it, the only thing in your head at this stage is getting that lid and NOT letting any jack slack get in your way! good luck to you all and remember this - the reward is jumping out of that hercy bird and being apart of the greatest brotherhood there is. AIRBORNE
i passed selection a month ago and told my self over and over no'1, win , second is the 1st looser. so i whuuped the run and bossed the phys. passed selection with 137 (B).
last week i went on the para insite course for the giggle had a bit of a bad ankle but what the hell, did 14.1 on bleep test, didnt wanna push it to hard. did well on the run lol beat the hare by about 30 seconds whoops. did well on the phys again same with the command tasks and assault course. and the log race... bugger me that was a laugh, 2 logs 11 men to a log. race on lol. my team had a poor start alot of ppl droped off early the other team had 6 ppl left on it and a pti instructor helpin them .... 4 ppl including me left on my log way behind the 1st log, haha.... pti instructor came out with on my mark sprint and so we did, we were all fooked, we over took there team and we wer that fooked i burst out laffing and found my limit but fook it i wanted this bad so head down and chug on faster. we ended up coming in 5 minutes infront of their team. what a result. when we finished i wanted to go again!!
just goes to show if you want something that bad then you gotta dig deep and take it coz it aint gunna be given to you!!!

i asked my recruiter that. he didn't give me an exact number, he just basically said you'll get asked to come back again only if you show the right level of aptitude and determination and show them you 'can' be brought up to standard
assume it won't be more than 2 or 3 tho~?
