Have been thinking for some time about what to do in the future..
Whether it be a Trade,Armed Forces etc..And Have thought lately about maybe applying for the Marine Commando's..
Anyone else done the Training or got the "Green Beret"?!

[moxy89]

brother is off to afgan, he has been in the royal marines for around 4 yearrs and he fooking loves it. such a good lifestyle but training is meant to be anything froma joke.. go for it mate only something you can do once, i would love to go for it but im to much of a homo

[Rach125]

before you make any committments join the reserves in w/e u wanna be, im thinking of joing the TA and go from their, but ye in the reserves your not committed to anything and u can easily leave

[bullit]

brothers done 11 years

was gonna join myself as bricky apprenticship was going shit at the time but changed company and it went well.

my brother is in 40 if anyone is the same

[moxy89]

so if my brother is in 40, im sure he is ill ask

[Ryyy]

I think I'll be physically fit enough for it deffo..Weigh as much as a Pound Coin and used to Box lol...And not bothered about getting told what to do/shouted at, used to it tbh!..Just a weak swimmer that's all...Just if they called me up to go to Afghanistan/Iraq I would have to seriously think about it because it would be VERYY dangerous lol!

[Bowey]

risk your life and go through hell for a complete SHIT wage.. no thx people like marines should be getting 100k a bloody year

[SaxoSam96]

I done my year at Harrogate (Juinor training)
It was fucking brill, but decided to get a trade out of the army after it, i now do decorating, but with the friends, family, girlfriend and other commitments i dont think i'd go in again untill everything truly hit the fan, the decorating is going strong so and the crunch aint effecting me right now so all good!

[SaxoSam96]

And just training i was earning just oover a grand a month, shit pay, but i was 16 so its like winning the lotto ten times over lol

[bullit]

so if my brother is in 40, im sure he is ill ask

yeah let us know.

yes it would be dangerous. it prob wouldnt have crossed your mind a few years ago about joining but the reality now you could be in a war. my bro has done iraq and afgan and he has lost mates out there. at the same time though he did love the buzz.

[VTR-Chris]

ive been in the army 3 yrs (armoured infantry) an done an operational tour of iraq summer 2007, which was the worst for violence in the whole time we've been over there... also due to deploy to afghanistan in august this year

any questions about anythin dont hesitate in pm'in me :y:

[Ryyy]

Cheers VTR-Chris and tha rest ;)
Really Needed advice on this and have got it..

[bullit]

It's the Swimming like I said, Only thing that I would struggle with..:(

[tuft]

wanted to go RAF do communications and that sort of thing but didnt get accepted. at the time I was gutted but now Im doing an electrical engineering apprenticeship with Bosch so everything worked out well and Im pretty happy. although the way things are going with Bosch I dont know if Im goin to finish the 4 years

[ricksimmonds]

I'd rather be in the Navy tbh ...

Oh Haiii Road-Side Bomb ...


Thats why i think the the raf regt is a good idea

you get to do abit more of the soldiering stuff than in the navy but all you'll be doing in afghan is protecting kandahar and the chances of being killed in action are very low in comparison to being in the Army/Marines.

Also i hear raf personnel are better looked after than the armys, shouting for the sake of shouting in the army isnt it!

Just need to get the courage to go the careers office and change my life forever! lol

[VTR-Chris]

shouting for the sake of shouting in the army isnt it!



been watchin too much bad lads army there mate, you'll only get shouted at if you fuck up
