Hi, I want to ask about SDC cos there's not a lot of info about it. Do you go on any exercise (eg Ex Valiant Sprint) during SDC as well as adventure training off camp and do you need to get most, if not all of the kits you talked about in this video and in the last one? Would you also mind if I DM'd you on IG (please your handle) to talk me through the course? I know it's been a long time since you attended it but any little info you provide me would be helpful. Cheers.

When I did it, I didn’t go on exercise and I didn’t do any weapons handling. I’ve heard now that you learn parts of the rifle on sdc. Most of it is intense fitness however. It’s a good little course and I would advise taking everything bc even if you have a break, you can leave it all on camp for when you do your full CMS

Hello. I have a question as an American I’ve always been curious about? Are you and the rest of the british army still pissed off about America declaring illegal independence from the union of Great Britain? Also is the British army still plotting Ana track in America to regain its original British territory back to the british union? If so I warn you, the U.S. military is very powerful. The U.S. military now has arguably overran the british military as the most powerful military the world has ever seen. A whole now. I’d say since the end of world war 2 we have. During world war 2 Great Britain became very vulnerable and actually asked America for help quite ironically because we fought against Great Britain for independence because of what we call tyrannical British laws.

Don't forget to take an iron and ironing board and the obvious (underwear, towel, clothing, toiletries, shower shoes, hair nets for girls). I didn't mention them in the video as it is on the kit list they give you in (link in description!) DISCLAIMER: I am in no way connected to recruitment or have been told to make this video. I am giving MY advice on MY experiences. You do not have to follow it. I truly think that everything I mentioned is necessary but that is just preference! If you don't want to take it, nobody is forcing you 😅 do what you think is best! 💕
