He died that's all. It was his unlucky night.

Over the years there have been loads of lateral transfers. Back in 1989 there was an article from an officer who spent a year with the french army in an cosantoir, which played a role in my decision to quit the pdf.Last edited by paul g; 12 August 2017, 09:13.

Only small states that cant justify their own officer training establishments like trinidad and tobago do things like that. If they sent somebody he be seriously disadvantaged in his eventual career. The only time they did was with women, but it was only in the beginning and once they had the facilities in the curragh thry stopped

We have the C&S School who run the Sen C&S Cse (for promotion to Lt Col) but we still sent people to do the equivalent courses in the UK, US and I think France and Germany
The Irishman who was sent to Sandhurst by the DF was pictured in An Cosantoir at the time
