The Royal Marines require you to have, or to achieve, a very, very high standard of physical fitness. You will need a great deal of determination, if you are not very determined & focussed on why you want to join do not sign up. You will get very wet ! The possibilities of rejection are very high, and I am sure you may not even be told why ...
The Royal Marines Commando are people who do battle using submarines on the sea. You can join the Royal Marines Commando through their website RoyalNavy dot com.
if you have a criminal record can you still join the marines commando
Her Majesty's Royal Marines Commando/Band Service (delete where applicable)
James Ladd has written: 'Royal Marine Commando' -- subject(s): Great Britain, Great Britain. Royal Marines
If your talking British Forces. Commandos are generally Royal Marines who come under the Royal Navy. You can also have Royal Navy Commandos (Surgeons, Padres). Also you can have Army Commandos such as Engineers, Artillery etc who have passed the All Arms Commando Course. They support the Royal Marines or 3 Commando Brigade (3 Cdo Bde). The Special Air Sevice (SAS) are army but now recruit from all three services. So in theory you can be in the SAS (once you've passed the course) having been a commando. I on the other hand am neither.
In 3 commando brigade there are 3 Commando regiments. (40 Commando, 42 Commando and 45 Commando) Each as about 1500 commandos. Also the the fleet arm protection group (Commandos that work on ships) has about 1500 Commandos and the Air assult unit has a further 1000 Commandos. Overall there is about 7500 Commandos
No, they are more akin to the elite Brigade Reconaissance Force of the Royal Marines 30 Commando IX group.
The Royal Marines are part of the Royal Navy and nothing to do with the Army.
There are five bands associated with the Royal Marines.
Royal Marines A.F.C. was created in 2008.
Royal Marines Division ended in 1943.
Royal Marines Division was created in 1940.
