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

    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.

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

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

    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?
