I played as Hunter Force 11years ago (christ, where has the time gone...) for a selection course in the Scottish Highlands who were on the escape and evasion phase. They had already been out in the highlands for 7 days before the HF arrived. The guys on selection were told they'd be hunted from day 1 so were on edge before we arrived. They were literally dressed in a tshirt, combat trousers, boots and an old army WW2 style greatcoat with a small baccy tin survival kit that you get from GoOutdoors and a scratch map, and we were in full gear, 3 hot meals a day, decent shelter, vehicles, thermal capabilities, heli drops, dog units etc etc. Caught 3 in a week. The rest were caught by 'enemy forces' on their final RV point and brought to the prison we had set up where they were cuffed and bagged for 2 nights and had some basic interrogation. Most memorable session was them all sat blindfolded in stress positions on a concrete floor in a barn with radio static played REALLY loud. If they moved their positions were changed to new one. That sat like that for 24 hours but had a bit of respite only when they were interrogated. On the final evening we frogmarched them into the back of a heli, they were placed facedown and flown directly to Hereford for 'tactical questioning'. I wasn't part of that but I have been told about that phase by badges members. Their fitness is absolutely next level. Very quick minds and bodies.

It's a great program. I reckon I'd be fine

Neither could I espwcially when they single you out and tell you you're only still here just and you was about to be chucked out haha!!
When I was 18 my fitness was very good, 1.5, 3, 5 all the way up to 10 Nile runs because I wanted to get into Ethernet RAF Reg (say what you want about them but they get treated the best out of the forces in my opinion) but then I wasn't able to get in during the medical assement. Since then my fitness is shocking. Just lost all will power to get into proper fit stage, now It's all about gentle jogs a few sit up and press ups! If I was to try out for that program I would prob walk on the first 2 mins of being there hahaha

[TonyB]

Could you have survived the 5 miles of death though?

[Kwacky]

I did a night exercise with the Air Regiment. Tough bastards. I think they all go that extra mile to prove their worth because of the ribbing they get from the other forces.

Bet that was fab wasn't it. Put the applicants through their paces! Was you part of the Paras then?

I did a night exercise with the Air Regiment. Tough bastards. I think they all go that extra mile to prove their worth because of the ribbing they get from the other forces.

I think the common idea of the RAF Reg throughout the forces were they just stand around all day guarding the airfields, but it's definitely got more of a role than that...they also sit and guard the airfields!
It really is a great role to be part of had everything, parachute squadron, colour squadron (ceremonial) RAPIER (unsure if that's what it's called now but ground to air missle system which was taken away and given to the army and think there's one more thing but it was 10 year ago now can't remember in all honesty!

I did a week away with them at RAF Honitonwhen I was 18 and that was very good. The gits thought it was funny to pair. Me up with the biggest fecker in the squad to do a firemans carry up and down, up and down until they said stop, and I was the smallest out of everyone. But proved them wrong managed to beat most of the other guys. And did their 3 miler with rifle and some kit, that was interesting, I fell over and got mud in the barrel...Jesus that was a bad move they beasted me when they found out! Oh and managed to screw a SA80 cocking handle up. No idea how barstard thing didn't move afterwards haha!!

[Kwacky]

I'm older than you so played with the SLR, which was massive. The SA80 was out but us cadets didn't get to use them when I was in the ATC.
