Any arrsers got their name down?

Any recent success stories? Complete failures?

The cinema still pump?

Pass your CFT, train in mountainous or hilly areas - it's not a flat one

If that's all I need to worry about then it'll be a breeze!

I'll hide the crossed swords though

For the other bloke who replied then deleted his thread, it's the senior command and leadership management course, a rehash of the old staffies

I've heard it's all paperwork now with no phys....

(pulls up a sandbag...)

When I was young, it was weeks of digging, 25 hrs a day and when we'd finished, they'd kill us!

There is one running in May as well. CFT is day one hour one, fail that and its home you go.

When I was there, the course was run by very keen chaps with sand or maroon coloured headress....

That was just for breakfast... defeated 3rd Shock for lunch and then tea & biscuits for tea

I did JCLM two years ago and it was pretty physical . SCLM was concurrent and they did just as much fizz as us . Expect a CFT first day , log runs , assault course and orienteering . Four day exercise at the end , during which you should not count on getting any sleep at all . That said , it's run by the same DS as the JCLM , and was ,without doubt , the best course I have ever done .

Just out of interest how does JCLM and SCLM differ in content to an Infantry JNCO or SNCO cadre. Apart from the fact the infantry courses are in brecon. Does some of the course focus on trade training in future rank or just being a section commander or platoon sgt.
