I am keen on joining the Royal Marines Reserve and would like to know a bit about the course. I have had a look at the website which is obvioulsy very good, but would like to hear from current recruits or any serving Bootnecks, what the recruit course is like and what training and courses you do once you have passed the Commando tests.
Also in comparison to TA units lke 4 Para, how likely would compulsory mobilisation be. Ive know that 4Para recruits are compulsory mobilised almost as soon as they pass P Company, but is it different in the RMR?
Perhaps just a rumour but I had heard that the RMR guys have all volunteered for service in Iraq and Afghanistan and not been compulsory mobilised.
Cheers for any info
