you cannot enter either the SAS or SBS if you are not serving in the regular army.The Royal Marines are one of the cutting edge groups within the British Army, they have very tough requirements to join them, only joining the Para is harder.
Their's is not to question why.
Their's is just to do or die.

I'm going with the SAS as the hardest bunch to join followed closely by the SBS and then the Para's. All tough outfits to be pulling your load in though.......

Oh shit, Zeebub! Bootneck is really going to be pissed with you! Never ever refer to a Royal Marine as a member of the Army. They are Royal Navy. You'll have him blathering on about Pongoes now!
You also raise another issue guaranteed to get his blood up...the Paras! Actually, as an ex-Para myself, I have to begrudgingly admit that gaining entry into the RMs is slightly more difficult than getting into the Paras. Our PARA CIC and P Coy training, which has to be passed before becoming a Para, was 28 weeks. RMs have to go through another month of torture as their course is 32 weeks!

SPECIAL BOAT SERVICE (SBS)
This organisation is the Naval equivalent of the Army's SAS (Special Air Service). Personnel are all volunteers from the mainstream Royal Marines and vacancies are few with competition for entry fierce.

Hey guys! Please don't demean the thread with bickering. It's not the place for it.

Bootneck are the best Royals which give a something greater meaning value. Bootneck includes the best commandos. They are the great in their own way. It includes one of the world's most training courses outside the special forces. It is quite admirable. Bootnecks are a sub-tribe of the Royal Navy.
Just heard from Bootneck, he is hot and wants a beer!
It's about 120 degrees in the hell hole he's in,,,maybe even hotter.
Wish we could send he and his mates a keg!
