this is always the subject of much debate, particularly among
the ptp batch - i mean, what could they possibly want with a bunch
of zero fighters?
honestly, if there is some fixed criteria for selection, i can't
tell what it is. you can say yes you want to be a commando or you
can say no you don't, you can do 20 pullups or you can do 0, you
can have straight As or you can drop out of ITE - either way you
might still end up in hendon.
if you've yet to enlist and are one of those spec-ops-fetishists
who is dying to get himself into the commandos then i really
wouldn't bother trying to figure it out if i were you.
