What I don't need is smart ass, riddle replies from people
No, you don't, because you should have done your research much earlier. If you'd asked the ACLO for a potential officers' course at Culdrose or Yeovilton you would have had the opportunity to ask people who have been through the system and are serving. However, you didn't, and that may be the fault of the ACLO, for not getting you a place.
So - here is the outline:
One year at Dartmouth - including the middle term of three at sea. Unaccompanied throughout BRNC.
Four weeks survival course.
Twenty six weeks at Cranwell/Barkston EFT
Then either
RW
Twenty four weeks at Shawbury RW BFT
Followed by Lynx, 36 weeks or Commando 34 weeks at Yeovilton or 48 weeks ASW Merlin at Culdrose. Total for Lynx 130 weeks from start, 125 for Commando and 145 for ASW Merlin.
FW
40 weeks Tucano at Linton followed by 26 weeks at Valley followed by 40 weeks at Wittering. Total 145 weeks.
No chance of any deployment until completion of the above, all of which assume no hold-overs.
After that, take pot luck, and hope that Gordon's plans for global domination are slightly less than Tone's.
As I said in my reply in April, as did others, it's not very wife-friendly, and you will be in a minority of one. Your attendance at Friday night activities will be just as important as your effort during the week, and you won't get any support from your course mates if you are off home to wifey at 17.01 every day.
