Post by We_Are_Soldiers »

I was just wondering how quickly you can move up the ranks in Paras. I know its all down to the person aswell but how have you found it in contrast to other Jobs?

If you're a decent bloke you could get on your first promotion course after about 1.5 - 2 years, a lot quicker than it used to be.
There is no fear, there is only the force.

Just thought I'd better add that the average is about 3-4 though.

How things heve changed it used to be until you had done 3 years in battlaion you were still classed as a crow.
Things you feel like doing after being hit in the liver :
-Vomitting
-Suffocating
-Shitting yourself
-Passing out
-Crying for your mummy
-Stop taking part in any kind of violent sport.......
