    4 weeks? You are ****ing joking? They train recruis for 4 weeks now? Well no wonder ****heads from 3rar shoot themselves in the head..

    Whatever happened to the 3 months of training? I feel sorry for the units that receive these lids into their sections...god talk about retraining.

    Good luck with it, but with 4 weeks of training i wouldnt actually say it will be physically and mentally challenging...pffft

    If anyone asks "who has a motorbike licence?" always answer no. They ask that when they want something done. I got through a 3 monther back in 93 so a month cant be that bad.
