Learn from the mistakes of those that have gone before you into the Royal Marines. I learnt the hard way from my own mistakes you don't have to make the same mistakes. Be one step ahead of the game.
Did you notice number 8 was missing??
Number 8 is attention to detail, make sure you're always paying attention!

Good tips Sam.
My number 1 tip is this:
Think carefully before joining and only attempt it if you have the determination to succeed. Be aware, failure at any stage in training means leaving - and you will not be remembered. Your face in the recruit squad photo is erased.
If you leave, the rest of your life will be fine - the Royal Marines is not for everyone - but leaving without passing out will affect you. You will always have that little worm in your head reminding you that you couldn’t hack it.
When you pass out and wear your green beret, no-one and nothing can ever take away that feeling of pride and achievement. It stays with you all your life. I’m 67 and still feel it. Just make sure it’s what you want and you are going to put in the necessary effort. It will certainly be harder, much harder, than you expect.
Don't you just get backtrooped if you fail?
@@travisbickle0526
You’re right. There is a possibility to be back trooped to Hunter Troop if you slip below standards or have an injury that’s felt to be temporary and there’s a probability you could pass. It’s not an option for everyone though.
I tuned myself prior to joining by drinking every beer I could find and going ashore drinking every night I could get out 😂while in training and they chose me as a Section Commander ask any of my Squad mates Squad 708 forwarded to 707 then 709 after a week In sickbay after Bad reaction to TAB shots and only one with AB positive blood group
Yeah right.
Thank you for your service Sir, I have a question. Did you ever serve alongside any kiwis (New Zealanders). I want to join the Royale Marines when im older, but im from New Zealand, though I have heard Kiwis or any citizen from a commonwealth country may join, is there any truth to this?
map reading? I went out with a marine who said he’d message me when he got home& he must be appalling at map reading because it’s been 9 years& he is still lost. 🧐
Just be patient, he may still call...
Trust me you had a lucky escape lol
Hi it’s me I’m home 😂
He must have been a lutenent
You cant spell lost without Lt
@@doomguy7724 You can't spell lieutenant 😂
I'd like to add a couple Sam...Make sure you eat properly. Don't slope off to the NAAFi and eat crap because the queue s too long at the galley. It's important to eat the right food. Likewise - when you've done your admin for the evening and it's late - maybe very late, like 2 in the morning - don't waste valuable sleep time by having an egg roll/coffee at Duchy's (If there is such a thing nowadays). Try and get to bed as early as possible. Fuel, rest and excercise is like a triangle. Remove one and the triangle collapses. Oh and one more...be the grey man - don't get noticed too much. Just be quietly confidently getting through training.
Perfect mate
Went through training with Sam, lovely lad. Nice to see you
Reg great to hear from you mate! Hope your well! For everyone’s info, Liam was a Para then went Royal Marines, I.e he’s a machine!!
Give me a message mate would be great to chat! 👍👍
@@CompleteCommando whats a para
@@murkz6876 paratrooper
@@murkz6876 It’s like a Royal Marine, only not as hard 😜
Paras is like a harder version of the marines ;)
At 18 years old I had never been to a gym in my life, but I walked a lot doing ten tors and was a keen cross country runner. Grew up on a farm doing a lot of physical work. For the 8 months before joining I cycled 7 miles from the farm into Taunton everyday to put in 12 hours of labouring building houses with my uncle before cycling home again.......I've never been close to being as fit as I was before joining the corps.
Thanks for such a detailed insight Sam! I look forward to applying and am glad I saw this prior
A lot of good advice for anyone whatever life pursuit they're embarking on military or otherwise. As soon as I can I'm going to get myself some rope & learn how to climb it. Thanks for upload.
Great advice for any new recruit ....this applies to any branch of the services ....wish I had known this before joined the Army in 82
From a retired skimmer , I have the greatest respect for our lads , happy to taxi you anywhere you like . Stay safe mate .
Good advice mate, wish I had it before I joined! Take it all in people, will make your life easier 👍
My son got his green lid last Wednesday, hIs troop were really pleased to have their berets presented by an SBS RSM who actually done the 30 miler with the lads.
Brilliant!
Great video, Soldier. If more people prepared, the drop out rate would halve. Your advice was spot on. I've learned from getting super fit and strong in the gym, build up slowly, your only competition is your own head. Thank you for your Service. I used to pass Lympstone every day!
Great advice! The mornings killed me in the military. Great times though
So true. Most recruits focus so hard on the fitness that the rest is overlooked. The point you made about getting used to the outdoors is spot on. I remember the shock of my first few days in the field in a cold November snap. Massive shock to the system. Sounds stupid now but I just didn't anticipate what it'd actually be like living outdoors in the winter ..and being tactical at the same time which just makes it harder. Quickly adapted to it mind and it never bothered me again but the initial shock was real. I actually felt privalaged just being indoors after those first few days!
Good video. I joined in 1980. Royal Marines have always been a cut above the Army. I agree with the iron, i took the best steam iron I could afford and had people asking to borrow it.
Fitness, my Dad had a coal merchant business, carrying 50 kilo bags of coal during working hours did toughen me, however, I wished I had paid attention to other disciplines like pull ups.
Again, great video.
I have now been a civilian longer than I was a Royal......thanks to a ‘lucky’ shot from a retreating Argentinian. Seriously, this would have been excellent advice even in my day. Whilst every aspect of training (at this point I have to admit to having been a YO-YO) has been updated, the core principles and requirements haven’t. For those aspiring to wear the hard earned Green Beret........listen and learn!!
Thanks for your service mate. Might be tired of hearing that lol. Lucky shot for him. Unlucky for you.
I'm guessing you served in the Falklands
I joined in '81 , this is still good advice! ! Remember one thing , you can opt out in training , jack it in , whatever, but I promise you YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE! Good luck guys! Keep smiling and don't let the bastards grind you down!
Respect to all our Royal Marines thank you for your service to our country.
thanks mate 🙏
Awesome stuff cheers for doing this mate
No worries mate glad it helps
gonna keep this saved, considering joining got a long road ahead at this point in time though. thanks.
Great video. Passed the all arms course and served with a cdo unit for 4 years. Excellent time.
I'd advise that you don't get on any transport up to the start of the endurance course, especially if it's been booked through Lympstone MT by someone on your course who thinks the training team won't find out........
Good Solid Advice from a Royal Marine Commando, the worst thing for me when I was in, was being cold and wet in the field, but you learn all the tricks to make this easier the more you do it, it really is a state of mind as I’ve seen the super fit fail.
Mind sharing a couple of these tricks mate?
@@johnnylooi2727 wiggle your toes 🤣
This just came up on my feed and as a 47 Yr old asthmatic sadly no Marines or other for me(!!!) but just wanted to big you up, and this video! Really well done, very well thought out and great info I'm sure for all those going to Lympstone! Thank you also for yours, and others for your/their service!
I'm turning 18 soon, I'm still being treated for asthma however I definitely feel like it's going away. After 4 years with no asthma I hope to be able to join
Thanks for the video very helpful! 👌👌
No probs bro!
Poor state of affairs he felt the need to say ‘not being sexiest’. Great vid! Lots of useful information to absorb.
For recruits joining now, remember the instructors will have been to Afghan etc so show respect and don't gob off and have a good attitude towards them. Also, a huge thing don't get attached to your training troop recruits. Obviously make friends but I've found a big reason people quit is they get to week whatever, fail Gym Pass Out, realise they have to be backtrooped and meet a new team of people that it puts them off and they leave cause they miss their old mates. The friends you make half will be in the Royal Marines anyway so catch up with them then.
100% agree with all of this mate! Valuable info for lads there!!
I got backtrooped week 12, map reading biff, was from an urban/city background, no idea about backbearings/map to ground/resections etc, backtrooped 4 weeks, retest, cracked on, made new friends, passed out, Cdo Medalist, first draft 45 Cdo, 36 year reunion with original troop oppos this year, The Corps taught me much more than how to read a map, it taught me true friendship, loyalty and to always stay true to yourself and never give up. Being part of a unique Brotherhood is hard to explain but for those in it there's no need! Cheers to all those who've worn the Globe & Laurel, Once A Marine, Always A Marine 🍻
Great video Sam. Having served in the Corps 4yrs now I agree with everything you've said. It's a rotten 8 months but the best looking back. 👍👍
Thank you mate appreciate that! Hope you’re enjoying it mate! 👍
Just waiting on capita to call me and do my triage before getting a date for my vPJFT, cheers for the advice mate
I enjoyed that. Effort Royal!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I agree massively with point 4. They tell you not to do weighted runs, I disagree massively. Get used to it, also get used to preparing to double, doubling then back to quick march. Basically walk fast, run, walk fast, run, like that
Quality videos keep up the good work
Thanks mate glad you like them mate!
Lot's of hiking and camping in the hills, you'll get use to wearing boots, carrying a rucksack, map reading, hydrating yourself, cooking, maintaining,cleaning and repairing your equipment, being on your feet for long periods, looking after your feet and moving across uneven ground. And your confidence in yourself and abilities will grow.
Agreed mate
Some very good advice there, maybe another two, get use to a lack of sleep and be ready to wake up at 100 percent.
Thanks mate! Yes 100% mate 👍
I’m applying shortly. Great video, straight to the point. BIG HELP!!!
Thank you mate! Glad I can help.
how did it go?
I take my hat off to any of you guys who earned your green beret, if i had my time again i would test myself and do the course, i was in the Army but the Royal Artillery.
Excellent video, I was at Lympstone in 85 (heart condition stopped me completing training) but the basics of what he is saying are so true. Another point, learn how to make your bed and clean your room (sorry lads, your mum can't go with you)
Behind the lines documentary from 1985.insightful and inspirational series. The ml branch typify humility and professionalism.
Spot on Graham. By far the best documentary. The new stuff is an embarrassement!
Going for the paras but really appreciate your videos (;
No worries mate hope you smash it!!
I worked with you guys in Afghanistan. The most oustanding soldiers I've ever met.
thanks mate
I'll be applying within a few months time so videos like this are what I was looking for. Wouldn't mind hitting the ground running upon getting to Lympstone. Providing I don't fail the medical for some underlying issue I had no idea about. Thanks for the informative content mate.

thanks mate
I served 2006 to 2014, I passed out at 17 years old, recruit training was the worst thing I’ve ever done in my life to this date.
The fact that you was recruited at 17 just tells me all I need to know at 44 I know I knew fuck all other that I wasn't joining the army break me how parents allow the scumbags that run this cesspool can only be described as lack of understanding and consciousness it's very sad that one would feel that they need to be fighting for what's amounts to corporate and courupt leaders.
Luckily I identifying this very early on in life including how retarded my family and the adults actually are thick as two short planks this country is in general.
Good effort Royal
Cheers mate!
Sulky sad rm career for me... went to join RMR at 31 year old ... careers office arsed about with my application and medical due to having laser ete surgery for over a year and then by the time the next prmc were due.. i were 33 ... game over for me ... not saying i would have passed but would have given it all i had ... love the boots ... all the best and great tips pal
Good drills 👌
Thanks mate
Richard Gay gave me a laugh!!!! I’ve got tons of questions!
Would like to add: Get used to doing things with less time, get used to teamwork, get used to attention to detail. Would have helped me as a young recruit in the army.
All good, I think I’m ready to go. Our country needs more lads like I, and all I care about is to defend the lovely life of me, and all the amazing people of the United Kingdom. For king and country!

I wasn’t enjoying college at all and had been thinking about a military future, It got to my head and was going to rush into the Marines. I didn’t, glad I didn’t. I was nowhere near prepared and I feel like subconsciously it felt like the only path available. Still thinking about the marines, maybe not for a while however I feel although it would be a good experience even if I were to be dropped or not carry on for whatever reason.
same mate dropped out of university last year, went to join as an officer last year but pulled out and kept my 9-5. Im 20 and thinking i might join from the bottom now.

Good video, I’m a Royal from the late 70s into the 80s, the one thing you’ll get out of being a Bootie is it sets you up for your life ahead. It’s a great life for a young person. I have many great memories from my time. It’s definitely a good thing if you don’t mind being wet and cold, also have the mentality to shut things out when the going gets tough. All those experiences and memories will stay with you forever. I’m 60 now and it’s as clear as it occurred last week.
jimjoelliejack I'm a 76 year old former bootneck, 1961-71, and I absolutely agree that the service sets you up for the rest of your life. I joined as a Junior Marine and passed the commando course a few weeks after my 18th birthday. It was the best decade of my life and now, in retirement, I often think about those days.
@@MajorRoadAhead well done brother, the days before CTC then for Juniors?👍
@@jimjoelliejack Thanks for your response. Back then Junior Marines did 12 months at Deal followed by 4 months at Lympstone , then known as ITC (Infantry Training Centre). The current commando tests are identical to back in my day - may have been tweaked a bit here and there, but just the same.
@@MajorRoadAhead yep I served with some lads from your days, I was a junior marine at CTC in 79 left in 84. Great days.
Admin is so important and also drill if you can't keep yourself clean on camp you have got no chance in the field. Hygiene and appearance is second to none in the Corps.
100% mate. That's what separates us. Attention to detail!
One thing every potential bootneck should know is that there is only one type of marine they should concern themselves with, and this is a submarine! Lol. All banter aside, this is a great video. Much respect to all the young lads that go for their green lid.
It’s years until I am of age of even considering the marines I’m a gamer so my fitness isn’t looking good(neither am I) but I think then next few years give me time to get ready and go outside more
Yes mate, make the changes no that you’ll thank yourself for in the future.
If you're young enoiugh join the cadet force. You'll get an intro to military disclipline, drill, rank, map reading, when to salute, living in the field, ironing etc.
But don't tell the instructors you were a cadet.
100% mate completely agree!!
The former cadets definitely had an advantage during training
Good video mate old man was a para I know you guys have beef😂 but even though he calls everyone craphats he said he wouldn't want to go to war with out the marines same savage mind set
Missing friends and family hurts the most. Hurts more then push ups from the PT to his timings.
Agreed, especially the first few weeks then you get used to it. By the time you’ve been in a few years don’t even think about it.

Many people might not agree with me on this one, this winter I have been going on my runs and walks in shorts and topless. My parents definitley disagree with it but I have to say it is really helping me get used to the cold.
I mean it will get you used to air exposure, but being wet and cold is an entirely different level of discomfort.
@@trtvitor1385 For sure, I follow the Wim Hof Method, breathing, cold exposure and commitment. It is great! Mastery of your mind and body will truly make you feel love.
14 and a cadet, looking forward to going in soon
I'd like to join cadets, to prepare for when I'm 18 (15 now)
As a lad who was in the cadets it was (3 years) you’ll be thankful for the marching training the show polishing and the discipline they teach you, it’s an excellent way to prepare and when you finally enlist they’ll look at you being in the cadets as an extremely good thing, would recommend

Do not be a loner or independant they dont like it , mix with your squad , dont be the comedian, stay cool and calm , their one aim is to break you, dont let them. Life after training is good. Remember your training team went thro the same and made mistakes no one is perfect.

@@EricCole69 Good luck mate
I would add…if you get really really good at map reading before you start training, it will help you massivelu during training and throughout your career. It’s the most important skill as a soldier.
Completely agree. On our Royal Marines Prep weekends we have 4 Royal Marines instructors who absolutely nail map reading over the weekend with potential Royal Marines:

That's not Army.
As to your other point, many Army personnel (and RN & RAF) are Commando Trained but to be accurate the overwhelming majority of them are from Corps not Regiments. So RE, RA, RLC, REME etc, very very few are from regiments unless they have an exchange programme with the Royal Marines.
My sister said that I should join the Marines, I'm not the fittest person but I went camping a long time ago in Essex. I did basic survival stuff like lighting a fire and map reading. I was 13, I'm now 26👌🏽🤷🏽♀️🇬🇧 I am not too sure about the marines, I have questions I need to be answered...
No.
Just no.
You should only join if fitness is part of your daily life and you want it 100%
Great video and I will admit I had the same mindset as you of just getting as fit as possible but this has definitely helped. Are you still in the Royal Marines?
Yer defo mate. Reserves mate.
Great advice, really informative and beneficial! Just wondering what kind of running levels should you be at as passed my interview and I’m currently running at about 5k in 21-22 minutes and reaching level 13 on bleep test is this a good level to be entering at?
Hi mate i haven’t done it myself but I saw on a different vid it was like 15 on the bleep test so sounds like your pretty much there
Annabelle Noble thank you mate 👍
I’ve always wanted to join but I’ve always struggled with confidence. If my confidence was spot on then things might be different now...
Confidence is gained by experience. If you don't have many experiences in your life naturally you will feel unsure and lack confidence when new situations arise. If you take time to experience things like traveling or meeting new people you will become used to a number of different situations. You will then have the confidence to be in those situations again in the future. imo pursuing life experiences like traveling for example is so important for mental development. I'm waiting until I'm around 22 to apply for the marines in order to get as many experiences as i can beforehand
Quite a few guys have been like you and did really well, confidence will come👍
I salute all military man 💪 soon maybe I will find my military man
A lot of people I know have joined the Royal Marines are about 18 but I wanna join at 22. Is 22 still an alright age if I try keep fit and follow people's tips, such as yours.
I'm joining at 24, just waiting for my vpjft at the moment. There were a few guys I met at the acquaint day who were 20-25. If you get yourself fit enough I'd say go for it before you actually get too old! That's what I'm doing anyway
Last one for me tho
How old where you when you joined and also what was the oldest lad in your troop
19 and oldest was 31
How do you feel about civilians taking over the training of the Royal Marines?
what do you mean
You mean capita? All they’re doing is helping with behind the scenes non of the actual training is conducted by them
Is there privacy in basic training? Like for changing and showering
No. You will need to get used to it. By then end you won’t be shy.
I’ve always wanted to join the marines but now I’ve got a 1 year old daughter I don’t know if the money is good enough, I keep being sucked back into these videos it’s like it’s meant to be

@@CompleteCommando Hi Sam, had a bit of an hiccup yesterday with my son. Capita have raised an issue and put his application on hold after retrospectively checking the medical form. They have deemed him medically unfit pending further reports. The reason for this is that between 2012 and 2015 ( 7 Years ago aged 12 years to 15 years old) he had ADHD medication for lack of concentration due to insomnia. I checked with my GP, he was under a mild dose for this condition, and in Aug 2015 taken off the medication for being completely fine. I am bloody furious that this is the case at the moment, non of the meds were for behavioural issues, and he passed his GCSE and A-Levels with flying colours after that. I will keep you posted, and look to take up a subscription for him once this shite is sorted out.

You don’t suffer from laziness, you are lazy. Only you can change that. Only you can put your trainers on and go for a run, only you can do press ups, sit ups, pull ups, burpees everyday. Only you can train even when you cba.
