Comments by "John Nunn" (@johnnunn8688) on "British Army's bold move to revolutionise initial training for recruits" video.
Spot on. Bring back the Recruitment Offices, where the blokes can talk to serving and experienced soldiers, sailors and airmen. Do all their medicals and box ticking and be in within a few months. (Bet it would be cheaper too.)

@alanfrost4661 , a lot of ‘foreigners’, (Commonwealth) are more British than a lot of supposed Brits.

They have beards in the RAF, including an officer who dresses in female officer uniform.

@Samuel-hd3cp you might want to learn how to reply to someone.

@zoiders , why do you accuse an ex-soldier, of being a bigot?

@zoiders it’s not a rehab platoon, it’s initial training. (It’s in the title) I can understand why you are confused because it looks like they are in rehab. Unless that was your joke?

Yep, training needs to be tough. ‘Train hard, fight easy’!

I don’t agree with you keeping shtum. Say what you want to say, I have.

@VanderlyndenJengold it’ll never happen. Humans love a good fight. Fact.

Booted runs, only after their soft feet have hardened after years of trainers.

Pretty sure Harrogate has taken 15 year olds for years. May be wrong 🤔.

Now, they have the gear but no idea. Sad.

You DO know that the MOD are mostly civvies, right?

They’ve been able to bring mum, for a number of years. They can turn up to training with mummy. Mummy gets shown around Ernest’s accommodation by a lovely Cpl and then Ernest’s and mummy 🤮🤮, sorry, have a hug and a kiss and they part ways. (Ernest is home, just before reciting the oath.)

If I understand this utter bolx correctly, they start a recruit on simple stuff and gradually increase the pressure and the difficulty in what they are learning. Apart from the IPad (🤮), what’s the difference between now and my starting training in 1969? I’ll help, there’s NO difference.

There already all arms commandos. The eff you on about?

I’d be embarrassed having my parents turn up for pass out. 🤣😂
