    The 10 second rule is very important. After the Air France 447 crash - we brought in a module called Startle and Surprise. The golden rule was to sit on your hands for 10 seconds…don’t rush into a motor response.
    Great episode again - and Foxy speaks very well on his experiences. His books are definitely worth a read/listen.

    Hi Jason, great point about how you dealt with the fear of heights. I think we all have our coping mechanisms to boost us through varying difficult situations. I like your comments about an emotional stock take, I have had to do that in Lebanon in 2006 unfortunately. If you ever want a chat please feel free to reach out.

    Question here that hopefully someone can answer as I am conflicted. I am 21 at the moment and I am currently training in preparation to try and join the Royal Marines. I have the qualifications to go in as an Officer so that is what I have been looking at. I am however concerned that going in as commissioned will mean largely a managerial and administrative role for the majority of my career when, at heart I like to be in the thick of it, planning operations or not I prefer to be involved doing the dirty work. I want to make a career out of the military and will probably stay in for a long time. Not sure wether to go Enlisted or Commissioned.
    I would be very grateful if anyone here as advice regarding my situation.
    Cheers,
    Ollie

      Hey mate, I had the qualifications to join as an officer but joined as a marine. I don't regret it.
      Thoroughly enjoyed my time as a grav and wouldn't change it. Your first job as an officer is going to be a troop commander at a unit (Lt to capt rank). You'll be planning everything about your troops life, exercises, annual reports, ops, the works. I've met some class officers in my time who knew how to balance things and have a good relationship with the lads but you have to have a level of separation from the lads to be able to lead effectively.
      It all depends what you want out of it. Either will set you in good stead for life and nobody but you can make the choice for you. Good luck mate

      Go officer if you can mate. If not, you can always get a Corps Commission further on down the road.
      I think things only become more administrative once you’re at the rank of Major and above. Hope this helps

    Great interview ruined by adverts and subscribe requests. Putting these in the middle of key parts of the interview shuts down the flow and the interview stutters. Sort it out, I am less likely to subscribe or buy the items because they have registered high on an annoyance factor....
