    They just dont get it do they?

    Texted a couple of my mates today to let them know that I've passed my PRMC.
    Anyway, instead of any congrats of any sort, I've recieved

    1) "The next time I see you will be on TV as an Iranian hostage"
    2) "I'll give it 6 mths before some Afghan is trying to take you out with an Elephant gun"

    Cunts!

    I've got a feeling that this is the type of shit I'm going to have to put up with all the time, and I'm thinking that I'll probably see less of these ignorant twats as time goes by.

    It's to be expected though I suppose.
    I imagine a lot of people experience this crap too eh?

    I'm kicking myself now, because I could'nt think of anything to hit back with at the time

    You'll probabl find that you'll drift away from your old mates anyway dude as your attitudes, opinions and interests change. Eventually you may find that can't see why you liked them in the first place

    Re: They just dont get it do they?

    Surprisingly few people make very any effort to understand other people - I got a load of criticism when I went to work in a country that was unknown/popularly perceived of as dangerous in 1986 ... and I didn't bother to tell anyone that I was going to be doing some training in Chile before I arrived there I think my family would have kidnapped me and taken me back to Lancashire if I had.

    Well done mate - follow your dream it is the only road you can take

    Mate as other people have said, you will make friends for life as you go through your Recruit course, so dont worry too much. Share your hardship, pain, achievements and experiences with them - they are the only ones who will ever understand what you are going through!!

    I have various groups of mates - lads I kicked around with at school, work colleagues and my mates who are in or were in the "Forces".
    I see all three groups of friends still but Im sure you can imagine which bunch I am closest too, spend most of my time with, trust with my life and who understand me better than anyone.

    Its a different breed.................

    Concur with Spenny on this one. Lad i went through recruit training with 15 years ago is still a great oppo and although i dont see him much these days due to moving away when we do meet up its as though we were never apart.
