slimslim, are you forces?

I know we, as preppers, are quite a secretive breed, but I dont mind admitting I'm forces. I'm surprised there arent more. It seems to be a natural career by-product.

as you've said preppers are quite secretive, there may be more than you know!

I picked up the Royal Marines Fitness: Physical Training Manual about six months back and went to my doctors today for a check up, I'm now down in my correct BMI and in best condition I've been in years.

Hey,

No admittedly I'm not forces yet. I'm currently in the application process for joining the Army as an Officer but a lot of my Step-family is all ex/current forces. :D

Having to fill out the forms before they confirm my dates for my Army Office Briefing and have currently got through the first two interviews the second being a grumpy Late Entry RLC Major who I managed to impress :D

slimslim: I imagine it's a no-no giving too much away here but Ive been Army for 10 years, which includes the past two years in an Army Training Regiment as an instructor (however, not Sandhurst). If I can offer ANY advice, please do not hesitate to ask.

Ex Forces myself, completed my 22 and retired completely.

Now that I am on a fixed Pension, my food Prepping has become more an edge bet against inflation ;)
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.
