Attestation period?
If you bring everything necessary with you the first time you go down, your security clearance should be sent off that within 1/2 days. That will take 2-3 months. During those 2/3 months, you will do an audiogram & medical. Realisitically you medical will probably around the time your security clearance comes back. You will then be sworn in to fulfill a period of 3 years service (4 yrs for NSR).

Someone please answer the OP's questions :
Perhaps like this :
WHen you join you are subject to a security clearance. This can take a variable amount of time , from 4 days to 8 months . There is nothing that can be done about speeding this up.
However an induction syllabus exists for you to be trained up on while you are waiting.
The uniform , again is a variable quantitity since RDF have a certain priority when it comes to getting clothing issued but normally should consist of
1: Magnum boots
2: DPM trousers and belt
3: DPM shirt
4: Tshirt
5: Beret and Cap Badge
6: DPM Smock
Anything else is a bonus at recruit issue.
These issues should be new, you may be given part-worn at the time but you are entitled to have it exchanged for new at the earliest opportunity."Are they trying to shoot down the other drone? "

The issue PDF tracksuit is being changed (apparently) and I have noticed that the recent issues to my company have included a complentatry tracksuit (old pattern). Still a nice track suit though. As trelheim said, anything above the basic is a bonus and fair play to you if manage to receive it.

Yep, the new issue tracksuit is a predominantly green colour scheme, and not
with figure forming tracksuit bottoms, unlike the previous predominantly blue
