Hi lads, I did my medical in january and I got an email a few days ago to say that I was successful in the medical and to continue monitoring my email and ill be contacted within due course. Any thoughts? Anyone else get this? I didnt apply for the brugha I applied for cork

The nurse at the medical said that the first batch is going in half way through march and the second one is in April. So it's not that bad for us. I had my medical on the 13th of January and asked her what are the chances to be in the first batch and she said that the chances are very high to get in the first batch.

Story lads/ladies,

Just updating on what I know is happening at the moment from being in before having contacts and now going back in this month

If your not going to the bruagha on the 22nd of this month then the next platoon will be around the summer time.

If you haven't heard back your results from medical and you done the medical pre February then your on the panel for if anyone gets injured and along with people who haven't had their medical you will be in for the next platoon going in the summer (they won't do a public competition yous will just be called upon and when the panel is empty they will recruit to the public once again.

Don't listen to when they say you'll hear back 2-3 weeks, I done my medical start of December and passed temporary fit on the day (pending bloods) and didn't hear back till we got the offer by email for the bruagha!

Anyone on here going the Brugha on Monday just out of curiosity?

So the people who are waiting on medicals for the Curragh will start during the summer?

Yeah mine was on the 11th and they said March if I remember correctly, but I know lads who haven't been called for the medical yet and lads who haven't heard if they passed it or not

What I know from the nurse is that there are more batches going in in June, July and then in October. So they're probably preparing the ones for March and April at the moment.

Any word from the Curragh Gents

aloyisious

The DFTC (Curragh) had their 105th Recruit Troop Passing-out Parade yesterday. The Recruit Troop commenced training on the 17th of October 2015 in the 1st Armoured Cavalry Squadron. The passing out parade today marked the culmination of their training and successful entry into the Army at the rank of Private 2*. During their 17 weeks of varied and challenging military training the recruits successfully completed modules in weapons training, foot drill, arms drill, tactical training, physical training, first-aid and unarmed combat to name but a few. The 37 Recruits were drawn from 14 different counties and they ranged in age from 19 to 26.
