      The Infantry in most cases were people with lower test scores but obviously some were good at what they did.
      The more intelligent people joined the likes of the R Engineers, REME... tradesmen
      They only learned very basic Infantry stuff & concentrated on trade training.
      The Infantry NCO went onto Brecon which is their courses.
      Cannot compare them to the Corps.

Billy is a socialist who believes in the basic goodness and decency of the British - and especially English white working class; my class. What Billy is acknowledging here is that people from the most disadvantaged background, through military service, can become the very best of our citizens. Others who know me have to decide if it's correct, but I think it did it for me.

    The state of their rooms for the Coy Cdr's inspection was unbelievable. Inflatable sofa, TV, posters onthe walls and beds half made or unmade. WTF....? What happened to bed blocks, etc? Rather mild 'bollockings' being dished out and still a bit of non-PC language from the instructors (hopefully it was only toned down for the cameras). If this was the state of things 20 years ago, I dread to think what training is like now.

      I was in the RAF and went on a survival exercise with the Royal Marines. Dinner was a rabbit which we had to skin and cook. I did mine and it was minging. I ate some to show willing, then reached in my pocket for the rations I'd brought with me. Well no one had said we couldn't.

    1:26 - "No shaving kit" - and that was a WRAC (or equivalent) speaking! They also want to carry too much nonsense kit into the field.
    2:26 - Forgotten waterbottles?! Punish them AGAIN for every idiot who's NOT got a properly filled waterbottle, too!!!
    3:38 - Who'd follow that plum accented rupert?!
    7:38 - In preparation for handbags at 5 paces - this is very "girlie aggression"... (Was anyone else giggling at this?)
    11:10 - What a camp camp major?! Bet he got a taste for it at Eton...
    11:48 - Crows allowed to have their own chairs in the billet? And pictures on the walls?!
    12:55 - The crow can't read?! They seemed to have lowered the bar of acceptance for even guards to almost on the floor. Hope he knows enough to put a "U" in "guards" - otherwise they'll have him on showclean for every day of his life...
    14:25 - The list of faults are incredible if these blokes aren't in the first week or two (top whack) of basic training.
    17:46 - The camp rupert evidently doesn't think much of Liverpool! But was WELL into the kinky bed gear, the dirty old sot! Bet he was mates with Sir Jimmy S...
    22:39 - "You've got to look for the bum hole": are you teaching the lads royal maureen techniques, how to get by without the girls? ;-)
    24:57 - The plummy rupert wouldn't be able to cut it as a sergeant, despite his name. Can't even use cam cream properly. And this bloke's in charge of training recruits?! FAIL.
    What the happy campers were doing, my mates and I were doing when we were at school! I've not seen anything at guards depot that looked worth joining for. Man, I would do anything to get out of foot drill: anything that's not fieldwork has no place in a soldier's training.
    I left service at the right time! It was all going stupid/soft at the beginning of the 1990s. I lost really interest. Girls wearing Maroon Machines which they'd not earned, exercises ceasing to be a full contact sport, etc. The people who were leaving at the time I joined ('83) would have probably thought that my generation were soft, I suppose. I can't imagine what today's standards must be like.

    inflatable chair, posters, girlie pictures on the block walls- catering for Generation Numpty- soft as marshmallow most of these characters. The BA has watered down it's standards and discipline to cater for these people. There is a fundamental lack of core self-discipline apparent amongst these recruits. Many of these characters wouldn't have survived 1980's recruit training. If you watch the BBC series made in 1982, 'The Para's,' there is a definite difference in maturity, with the 80's lads being far more mature and of higher calibre.

    The blanket stackers exercise was just like a cub scout weekend jolly. I never knew such training took place. The Guards even were allowed pin ups on the walls and their own duvets etc ha ha ha quite shocking really when compared to the 70's. Why did the training change? Does it make better soldiers, cos that's all that matters in the final analysis. The girls . . . .perfect training for them and the vegitarian will get binned no doubt!
