    People keep pointing out the mistakes but that's exactly why they're out there practising: to make the mistakes now rather than in the unlikely event they're needed in combat.

    Did Lions Sun in 1992, it was excellent, helicopters, landing craft, anti-tank weapons, all the toys that we signallers didn't normally get to play with.

      @iuvenis animo it's pretty hot mid summer but nothing a healthy young person can't handle. Nothing like the heat of the middle east. Plus great beaches and nice people too. You'll have a nice trip.

      Isn’t this the point of training though? Identify weaknesses and faults to correct? If it was a CALFX, then I’d be worried.

      You're a Soldier no matter what branch yoyre going into after phase 1, but these sort exercise are long over due.
      I was Infantry and then Signals in my career, and I was allways helping my Signal platoon in enhancing their In Infantry skills. In my opinion, I think all Soldiers should go through Infantry Training Battalion, before they go on to other trades.
