Military fitness training....love it!

Being shouted at by someone with a lesser education than me...........hate it.

Overall........I'm a p***y and don't want to get shot, so military training isn't on my to-do list. However, I do see huge benefits to it.

I always regretted not joining up. I was all set to join up and then ruptured my ACL and spent 9mths recovering and then followed a different path.
Full respect to those who are and have served

It's been a few years and I'm fully fit again and I'm currently in the process of joining the Territorial Army(infantry).

Have you guys ever thought about having military training?, what I was taught in my marine training is definitely a major confidence boost when handling firearms or (if ever) being covert. It'll be nice to hear your P.O.V and fellas lets not make this into a political debate on oil in the middle east please.

good luck with the TA.

i did the navy swim test and a week withe RLC. i can not stand being bossed about or shouted at. It gets me annoyed

The only military training I do is medieval with sword, pole arms and bow. I could never join the forces as I don't see the sense in getting killed for a stinking politician, and honestly believe the majority of people joining the forces are the Salt of the Earth, but are missguided.
