hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on Jungle training...Ive used a search but couldn't really find anything.
How often do the Royal Marines do Jungle training? Is it as often as Artic warfare training etc.

Jungle Training (Ex Curry Trail) hasn't been run with a commando unit for a few years now. Mainly due to the way units have rotated with training (Arctic, Nothern Ierland and mor recently Arrid).
Dosen't mean they won't think about doing it again though. But there are some marines who have done a good long service in the Corps and never seen the Ulu.

Used to be every year when 40 were the "sunshine" commando
But that was in days of old, when men were bold, and ships were made of wood.
Well 80`s anyway
