6 Rifles - commando

[accountant]

Does anyone know if you can do the All Arms Commando Course if you're in 6 Rifles?

 

[brewmeister]

Yes. Speak to your SPSI. Which Coy are you?

 

[lammypie]

I'm in d coy, so does that mean I could. Our sister unit is one rifles

 

[Cregg Bristle]

I think you'll find 1RIFLES are no longer part of 3 Cdo Bde. You may have missed the boat (see what I did there?).


Posted quickly, while the cat's not sat on the keyboard.

 

[lammypie]

So could I do it anyway ? Or p coy?

 

[The_Duke]

Of course you can - just put your transfer papers in for a Cdo or Para roled unit.

 

[lammypie]

Even though we are reserves, I could still apply and do it?

 

[The_Duke]

Jesus wept - there are reserve versions of the Commando course and P Coy. If you have a justification for going on them, you will be able to apply.

6 Rifles are the reserve Bn for 1 Rifles, which will sit within 160 Bde not 3 Cdo Bde and therefore have no Cdo role or requirement to attend the Cdo course. Therefore, why would you expect your unit to pay for you to attend a course you don't need?

Lammypie, are you by any chance an Assault Pioneer?

 

[lammypie]

No, why do you ask?
