dont get me wrong i wasnt suggesting that anything untoward went on .........i heard that 1st and 2nd place on the course were female and that the awards were warranted....my question was were they exceptional soldiers (regardless of sex) as from the earlier posts it was obviously very physically demanding....or was the standard on the course low??? (not meant to insult anyone on the board) my query really is if the course was so tactically orientated and physically tough it seems that these females must have been shit hot to top the course......

also are they still active as i have come across some great female ptes who went on courses and then lost interest afterwards.

Ok, let me get this right - females topped the course so you want to know if the standard was low! That comment doesn't justify a response.

The overall standard was no lower than usual. The females topped the written examinations and a female had been Platoon Sgt for the 24hr exercise. The female that came 1st was applying for the cadets I believe. I don' t know how she got on. The other female is about to be commissioned (FCA) next year.

Platoon Sgt for the 24hr exercise.........on a cpls course makes no sense......the potential ncos course syllabus leads to the training of section comdrs not as pln sgts......

how did that come about ??

also check the post no offense was made relating to the standard........
