Drakey,
I'll PM you a phone number to ring and you will be in the hands of the band service recruiting SNCO. Give him your number and he'll call you back straight away. |

Ian will look after you and guide you through the entire process. If you want some bits from me PM me your postal address and I'll send you a magazine and recruiting card. If you hand the recruiting card into the careers office the first time you go, I get a bonus! How good is that, I'd be the first person I know to get a bonus | ||

The best place to start is by calling Ian. To get an IDEA of the process check these links first... they are about the audition process:
http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/actionmusic/firstnotes-ie4.htm http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/actionmusic/introduction-ie4.htm then you can follow a troop through training to see what they actually did in their training: http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/pages/DiaryIndex.htm Troops 2000, 2001 and 2005 will show you what they did, when they did it in their own words and are mostly unchanged. Once you have absorbed that try a bit of history: http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/history/historyIndex.htm Followed by a bit about people who are serving, the bands and a bit of backgrond information: http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk/reference/index.htm Click the links in the left hand edge of the page When you have read all the troop reports, you'll know if it is the job for you. |

That's right Vic.......give him a verbal slap.

A verbal slap is too good for Deli....what he needs is a good hanging. | ||
| Aaron Aardvark |
what? so he ends up well hung?? 
|
||
| bootybandy |
I think that would be the correct solution for that offence.. | ||
