:o
When are you ever going to need that many clothes at Basic?
Still, if they say take them, I would take them!

Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.

I didn't think it said anything like that many on the kit list Jeremy, but I haven't got a copy handy, so can't check for you.

There you go then, 27 hangers it is!
I know I've got that many, somewhere...
Tom, can you either post it on this thread or PM it to me? I don't think I'll receive a copy for another couple of weeks, and I've got so much to do still with my house. Would be good to get a head start!

I met 2 more lads who are going to be on our course when I was at my medicals last week, Nick and Dave. Loadie and WSOp. Starting to collect quite a gang of us now, expect there'll be a couple more at your meds.
How come I'm the only person with no kit list?

We don't!? We were told at OASC before our bleep test that we go back to Cranwell to pick up some kit, have another bleep test and various other things...

Gonna have to confirm some of this...

Okie, let me know when you know!
How are you going to check? Will the AFCO have that info?
Every day that goes by, I feel like I know less and less, when I'm sure it should be the other way around.
