Alright men?
Another quick update, I cracked my commando tests this week... Pretty gopping, but it's done now. After summer leave I'll have to do field firing 2 then Kings Squad... So although I do have my green lid, I'm not there just yet.

All the best lads.

Presumably as they're deploying...could be a few shit drafts floating about your troop then mate, hope you do get 40. How many of you passed?

36 of 37... Quite good really

And yeah, there could be a shit draft coming my way... Although I've heard FPG isn't as bad as everyone says it is. Can anyone shed any light on that?

Yeh friend of mine got out of FPG sharpish after he was up there only a month ... hated the place , Said they do nothing all day so he got on a heavy weapons course and got a transfer down to 40 i believe.
