Oh purlease, none of that yankee nonsense, "thank you for your service" it is so corny. Served 14 years and if anyone said that to me, I would vomit. Also, I am an ex serviceman and not a Tony Blair veteran

Nice, nice, theyre not there to be nice.

Language sonny or you'll be on charge.

He’s no Cpl Marsh at RAF Skelton!🤣🤣🤣

Chances are he’s only so nice because he’s on camera

@@alang9891 Raf Swinderby 1975. If your kit inspection wasn't up to scratch. All of your kit plus your bedding and mattress would be thrown out of the window. Not much fun if you were on the second floor !!

Mine wasnt like that when i went with the holes in the lockers but the kit was just shot all over

it is a corporal

B@@Digital_Arachnid It's a sergeant 3 chevrons.

they can not throw things any more, that finished in the 1980's

best thing you can do, best trade training in the world. i was a steward

Reaper One are you serious...

Reaper One but their not civvies...

Reaper One Hardly Civvies are we

You think this is discipline? LOL

​@@melbeasley9762Obviously they don't show the beastings, why would they? My brothers intake had to leopard crawl uphill for 20 minutes because somebody left their rifle on the coach

Good luck 🤞

Still can’t get used to the airmen now being allowed to have beards!😳

I remember when i was a junior soldier at the Guards depot,That was another ball game.My kit was threw out of the window so many times.Bullshit baffels brains.

Nah they are actually like this tbh

Of course not pet They cry a lot when they can't do the fitness test and moan about the blokes who can. Women in traffic laughable. Get her a job in Tesco's

Was thinking the same thing! I truly hope it was for the camera. If you have not got the hang of ironing your kit at 21days...! Jeeeezus!!! My trading staff would thrown ME the length of the room simply by volume!! 😀 Ah, Swinderby! I am sure the pain diminishes over time! 😋 Most useful skill Iearnt was how to deck a full pint of bitter in under 30 seconds when the tannoy shouted for "Duty flight to the guardroom!" 😁😎

Dont belive he would have put the shirts back in the Locker. A bit cleaned up for the Camera. I remember by Basic Training at Swinderby .

Reaper One they’re* 🥴

At Swinderby '75. If I failed a kit inspection, my bed pack. kit and mattress would have been launched through the window.

Rosale Alvaran They all should be, and I do not see how gender should be any factor in that?

I can’t believe how casual that inspection Is,chatting away like he’s her best friend!!😮

RAF needs Gny Sgt Hartman from Full Metal Jacket inspecting her!🤣🤣

Hi You can see full info on the role page on the RAF Recruitment website: www.raf.mod.uk/recruitment/roles/roles-finder/medical-and-medical-support/raf-medic RAF Recruitment

14 weeks basic training now, we did 6 and 6 weeks trade training, and i ended up with 4 city and guilds and a trade for life.

​@onebillionfoodparcels212 10*

Ik thats what I was thinking!

Angelina S yes they’re allowed.

Under supervision.

Dunno if youll see this but male and females are in the same block just different rooms they also haft to have another nco with them to beable to do this as things can be said

@@bxbbey5050 If that is the case why not simply ensure the course have enough female NCO instructors for this sort of thing. I don't imagine any first world armed forces will lack female NCOs or even Officers for that matter these days.

Innit just having ur brazzard lookded at my staff means having to re stich it that night

Maybe he fancied her.

Instructors are not allowed to go through your personal kit. You do however have to keep your personal locker clean and tidy and they are allowed to have you open the door so they can check visual that it's squared away.

@@malcolmcave1613 Malcolm, thank you for that. But it still is out of order for a male to carry out an inspection of a female in the absence of another female.

Not really because he isn't touching her it is a visual inspection. You can't always be PC in a war zone. The military what happens in the army nowadays with females being in the infantry were there is a heavy majority of males having to share battlespace. The reality doesn't always meet people's expectations or standards if they don't fully understand the military lifestyle.

@@malcolmcave1613 Malcolm, for such situations to be squeaky clean, it is best for the male to have a female NCO accompany him during inspection. Taking precautions is never a bad thing.

Well serving nearly 12 years in the military I can tell you that isn't always feasible. Women in the military just want to be treated like the men, treated equally. The men don't get male supervisors if a female nco or officer is inspecting them.

Booker In your initial training you will, yes. You're in a block with many others, with your own bed space and locker etc. As is shown on these videos. However, when you move onto your posting once you've finished training you'll have your own room if you decide to live in the mess/block accommodation on station. RAF Recruitment

Whats it like? Thinking of joining up

@@josephclark77 piss easy i know that cos im waiting for start date for paras aha

@@baileyh4116 fairs

I came tho right 8 months ago and it’s the same as this, you must of been on a shit intake

Joseph Clark it’s as easy as you make it

Party Animals she’s in basic training for a reason, you learn these things...

ʝamie I know.

Hmm, I was at Swinderby in 1973 but don't recall any bed packs being thrown out of the window.

1985 we had a wastebin thrown out,beds tipped up but we are alright now!!!

At Bridgnorth 1960, Cpls didn't go quite as hard on regulars with educational quals as on those who didn't, presumably because the next time you met you might be a Rodney, Wobbly or Snec and he might not. National Servicemen had the worst time with their kit constantly thrown in the coke bin at inspections. Still, as was pointed out to us, it was only while we were at 7S of RT. Many DIs then were in the rôle permanently and hoped to become SWOs. Most had to be satisfied with being a universally loathed Sgt in the SWO's office. A different and better breed of DI now IMO with experience of the real RAF to which they would return.

*will return

Paul Boulter I’m the next I take to graduate Halton, this is only like this because he’s on camera, out sergeant is nice until you start taking the piss with inspections, then he starts making ou feel like shit, screaming and all

It's recruit basic trg, if you can't keep a toilet clean, or keep your uniform in good order, then you shouldn't be trusted to take care of equipment which costs millions of pounds of taxpayers' money.

It teaches you how to maintain your kit in a clean and safe environment, if they cannot do that can you imagine how bad there standards would be in a deployment to a war zone?

what millitary was you in hahaha, sounds rough haha

Must be marines

hes been watching too many movies

simoneywymney depends how shit your inspection was, I’ve had sergeants scream

My thought exactly. RAF Swinderby 1983. Bedpack missiles regularly. Boots the length of the room. I am sure it was the Cpls voice a half inch from my left lug'ole is the reasonI am now going deaf! Different times! "The past is a foreign land that we cannot visit!" Per Ardua!

not really, it’s litterally what the forces advertises

a RAF gunner would NEVER make a real soldier - period.

@@ManjihPCTV He ain't QCS...

@@ManjihPCTV and whats the diffrence when they walk on the streets. they got tattoos on thier foreheads reading RAF gunner and Real soldier. Listen to yourself

Because they usually come from civvy street where they endured boring menial work, only for less pay and pension and social life and overseas travel.

@@cambs0181 exactly

You take KZfaq comments too serious mate

Richard Roberts First off he’s a Sergeant. Second of all it’s an inspection which are a requirement for basic training to ensure recruits are up to standard. Third of all, he’s out of trade for a couple years, if that, to do instructional duties. He’d have gone back to his normal job afterwards.
