Hi!
I am currently undergoing selection to be a RN MCDO (Diving Officer). I have heard the physical aspect of training is hard and that RM-levels of fitness should be aimed for.
I have had a lot of advice from RMs and a couple of divers, and they've said it might be an idea to get myself on an RM POC before AIB, just to give myself an insight into RM levels of fitness and commitment.
Do you think this is a good idea, and can a RN candidate attend POC if they do not want to become a RM? It seems an odd concept to me. Thanks.
