    Not a recruit but just out of training, we had one guy who was told on the OPs to mark adjusting rounds with red flags. The gullible fcker even had the bright idea to put his trainers on so he could bring the FFE quicker!
    The BC turned up and had to order him restrained cos he was on his hands and knees ready for the off......

    Anyway, we had a lad a few tears ago who had lost so much weight he looked like a sharpei; we called him Sideswow Bob as he had giant feet. Drank like a fish, swamped his sleeping bag etc etc.

    He was in a pub one night and some bloke said, "That bloke over there is a paedo, he should be killed. "

    Sideshow is now doing life for murder...

    We had one come in for our insight weekend who was reported to be a schitzophrenic. Does this mean that we get 2 recruits for the price of 1?

    Can you imagine being a paranoid schitzophrenic Para Regt recruit?

    Voice 1: "I think that nasty man with the broken nose and moustache hates me"

    Voice 2: "He does"

    Voice 1: "Oh feck, I think he is going to beast me"

    Voice 2: "He is."

    Voice 1: "Feck, feck, feck......."
