Plenty of them that had partially or fully cooked off which weren’t nice. Edited March 1, 2018 by airborne_rat_of_s6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just prior to signing up (97), the 3 services combined the 1st part of training for medics at DMSTC near Aldershot. Spent nearly all of my time with the bootnecks, after medic training.

As a Shotonian I must say there is so much more to Aldershot than Para Reg. I mean, since they moved to Colchester, we have been blessed with such joys as unemployment and crime aswell as becoming a 3rd World toilet. The 'Home of the British Army' is a total cess pit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our training group the RAF birds were the fittest. Many nights out in Aldershot; Woking and Guilford. Inc Cheeks; spent a night in the photo booth at woking station; until the 1st train.

Eckyowl Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Now then treve see you in Cyprus mate!!! Been in the RAF for 22 and counting. God knows why but I can't bring myself to leave.

Cheeks-Thursday nights were mega. Newie challenge was to nick a handbag off a partner of a Para Reg bloke, take a dump in it toilets in it and get it slipped back without them catching you. I ended up getting one of the Keogh female nurses on ROP’s cos she was late on parade cos she was prisoner in my bunk in Aldershot.

Spent half my youth in there, probably still got a bit of the sticky carpet stuck on my old going out shoes. Sadly, its gone, like everything else that was ever good about Aldershot.

The NAFI was packed out every night with loads of birds. We were amongst the 1st groups to have the triservice training. Some complained that it was better at Haslar. But not me it went from training with a group of 15, maybe 1-2 females; to training with 70 odd with lots of fit birds. Great times for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
