truckman020:
if I remember correctly[from what I have read from ex SAS blokes who have written books]don’t you have to be selected by the SAS,ie they send people along if a recruit shows promise in his/her regiment,if they like what they see then they are invited to join selection,thats how I have always known it to be or am I wrong,anyway as far as i’m aware women have always been in special forces,in the intelligence sections of the SAS or am I wrong again,i say being wrong cos i’m no expert on these matters.
Not true anyone can volunteer who is in a regular unit, however you only have to look at the figures of how many have dropped out after 3 weeks on selection to see that there are plenty whose capabilities are nowhere near their ambitions. Women have always served in intelligence roles however mostly covert and not in uniform.
