Hey im in 6th form and my school put me down for some royal marine thing were going to, there will only be 12 of us, but we do the assult course etc, anyone been on one of these, whats it involve?
Depends. If it's a 'Meet the Marines' Day, I went on a couple. Good fun, not very helpful if you alread want to join/have knowledge, but still great fun, and you can write it down as proving you have a real interest in it. We got a rid eon a rigid raider, did some potholing thing, a mini confidence test/abseiling/climbing wall thing, weapons acquaint (SA80 up to MILAN), quick talk on Royal itsself, and an unarmed combat display. All good fun, but nothing strenuous or challenging. Oh and we did paintballing, and that was good fun, doing it with a bunch of clueless lads, 12 of us who do cadets went, and just basic infantry skills had us owning.
If it's not that, then I don't have a clue....
:P
