Joining the Special Air Service
The Special Air Service is renowned as possibly the most secretive, highly trained and respected special forces unit in the world. Their recruits must have a minimum of 3 years' service in the regular armed forces and are drawn from many different units, giving the regiment a wide range of specialist skills. Their duties include intelligence gathering, sabotage, interdiction, counter-terrorism, security and joint training with foreign special forces units.
The SAS' motto of "Who Dares Wins" is reflected in their training process, one of the toughest in the world. Only superb physical fitness and absolute determination will get a recruit through the hell that is SAS selection. Those who apply and pass the basic medical and fitness tests must endure weeks of marches across the Brecon Beacons, unaided and in full gear.
After selection the training process can begin, including parachute training, jungle warfare, combat and survival training, first aid and the infamous 'Escape and Evasion', in which recruits must evade capture for a week while surviving only off the land, before undergoing interrogation.
This 130+ page guide gives you the information you need to prepare both physically and mentally for SAS selection, including fitness, interrogation techniques and sample rendezvous exercises, as well as insider tips and advice.
