Good morning

[cc1]

Firstly, thankyou for letting me join.

I'm currently RM (10yrs) applying for a direct-transfer to the RAF (ofwhich the reasons are numerous!) but thought I'd join up here to help me in the application process if I come-a-cropper en route. No better place for 'gen' info than those that have been there & done it!

Welcome to the font of all knowledge RAF and the respository of endless bull**** - depending on your take. Just name your chosen Branch/Trade and someone will be along to beguile you shortly with bucketloads of conflicting information.

DT_Xtremez_31: It's either that or ring my branch-advisor... Both outcomes are roughly the same!

Seeking a commission as a Personnel Training Officer, with a view to work at the SERE School (RAF St. Mawgan).

 

[Stevienics]

I can probably help you out with the commissioning process and the early stages if you have any questions. There are a few St mawgan types around, but mostly in mourning for the Nimrod, and I'm certain there are some pers admin types ready to help you with the Phase 2 stuff.

Welcome - I've known a coulple of your guys over the years, from tri-service courses with Y Troop. It's lucky that you RM types are thick skinned, given your career choice - you've got a career full of P.Ed(O) jokes just sitting, waiting for you...

Ha, Jimmy Saville's affinity with the Corps is well known so I guess I come well prepared!

I can help with aspects of the SERE school and perhaps a visit if that will help. I'm living down here and currently in contact with STM for various reasons.

I'll get the two stock pieces of banter out of the way now shall I?

RM eh? What instrument do you play?

How do you drown a RM/P Ed O? (it works for both)....Put a mirror on the bottom of a swimming pool.

Aren't all SERE instructors either rocks or aircrew?

 

[Sniffer]

Not always. Certain roles down there used to be on the Manning site for volunteers from any trade. A colleague of mine undertook the training before realising maybe it wasnt for her.

No. I was taught RTI by a RM. if this chap has the skill sets then e enthrall you he may be able to wangle a way down there...I would have thought he'd have to do his time on a station or two first.

Aye, there's a handful of Bootnecks down there staying off the radar and loving life... My best-man is one of them!

I'd appreciate that greatly - will PM you!

Worked at the old RAF SCS&R between two proper jobs, only as a support jobby though, one of the best summers I ever had, used to love watching the trolly dollies gutting the fish and skinning the rabbits.

Can't really say much about the rest, wouldn't want to spoil the surprise.
