I'm just wondering if there's anyone on here that's served in the army?
I just have a few questions.
How fit do you need to be before joining?
At the moment i can run 2 miles before needing to stop for a rest, and my overall workout consists of me running around 3 miles in about 35 minutes.
I seem to recall a friends elder brother having to run a certain number of miles/km (the distance I cant quite recall im afriad) wearing so much in weight of equipment in less than 11 minutes I believe? He nailed it on his second attempt.
How long are you in training before you actually leave for Afghanistan/Iraq or where ever your country needs you?
Alot of troops are stationed out in Germany to recieve training, a couple of the lads I went school with went there around 2006 and left to go to Afghanistan 2008 If i remember correctly
What are the other recruits like?
Can't help you there really, although my mates brother came back a lot more quiet and laid back. I guess thats the Discipline
Are they all supportive and friendly or are they tough on you?
Just wondering because the last few years I've been considering joining up.
P.S. Please don't move this to the gen chat board, i don't want ******s like Edge posting their racist and offensive comments on it.![]()
Good luck anywho.
think, i know your a little pussycat anyway. Imagine if that happened to you. Spastic
