If you're joining, put my name on it :wink:

Not personally, but I know blokes who have, no problems except the usual delay in when you're meant to get your money and when you actually get it. Why?

Filled one out for a mates son a few weeks back. You just do what it says on the card and hand it to the careers office.

There quite simple really, a currently serving marine can apply for one, receive one. They then help you with training, techniques and give you advice and tips for when you are in training. And then if you complete phase1 of training which i think is week 15 or 16 they get a payment of around £1000 i think, correct me if im wrong. :D :D :D :D
