Is anyone else watching this pathetic shower of pansies

Yes I've been watching it from the start

whilst I don't doubt a lot of it is a slog, get a grip... it's the bare minimum you signed up for

I am not entirely sure of your backgrounds or if and when you have had forces training or been through the seletion process but I have to say that at the start its a shock, some unexpected and constant physical frapping. True over time one gets used to the fraptastic daily beastings and dysentry but you know its not going to be easy, they break you and then re-mould you to what they want and of course you'll rebel.

In the end you come out the other side a new shiny being, mentally prepared for the horrors of grunt action. Personally, anyone that goes with the intention of defending my country deserves respect, whether they make it or not.

Judgement should be reserved for those that don't defend and instead whine on about those that at least have the balls to try................

I don't know if you've been watching it but I think you may be taking it the wrong way from both of us (giddy up).

Also this is risky ground to tread on

Not sure the neg rep from yourself was appropriate, sensitive topic I presume.

I've been watching it from the start, looks pretty intense and not many of us would make it all the way through, some the the guys are pansies and wet behind the ears though in the earlier episodes.

Merc? Paul? either of you fancy chiming in here......

@merc: I can imagine that the way basic and selection is conducted nowadays is a little more, shall we say....um....softer than you remember it? I cant imagine whining got you far before paris hilton and david beckham were the social icons. lol...
