Guys just letting you know RMR Scotland is Recruiting!

[Harry Masker]

Just a heads up!
RMR Scotland will be having a Selection weekend in the middle of April.

So, if you like the usual recruit thing:-

Mud
Sweat
Tears
Gasping
Breathless
Vomiting

Then you’re in!

Also, tell all your pals and family that you’re joining... that way you find it hard to give up!

They may even start a Holding troop if prior interest is high.

Unit # 0141-445-6020

Hey, where abouts is the RMR office in Glasgow? I was thinking going down the TA route after a long spell off training now that I have an employer that supports my application but don’t think I could get back to RMR levels of fitness easily.

*** Fitness, don't worry to much and dont' let it put you off. The holding troop is designed to prepare your fitness for the Selection weekend.***

Is the selection weekend the same as PRMC? I took part in PRMC about 4 years ago but couldn't do Gym Test 2 cuz I'd injured myself the previous day.

I take it your a member yourself?

Forgive my ignorance but what is a holding troop? Is RMR similar to the TA in terms of training nights and training weekends?

Thanks in advance for the additional info.

Selection will consist of physical tests including the V02 Max Bleep Test (Royal Marines Fitness Test), the Basic Fitness Test (2x 1.5 mile runs), the basic swim test (2 lengths and tread water for 3 mins), a gruelling cross country/ circuit run (to see how much you want it) and an interview with an officer.

There will also be briefs to give an overview of the training. All successful candidates will be invited to then undertake recruit training for their chance to earn the Green Beret.
