Hello all,
I got sworn in tonight and am starting BMQ (well, BMOQ I guess, but the BMQ course with a few weeks added on for myself) on Saturday.
Firstly, I underestimated how much stuff you have to fit in the bags and ruck.
That leads into my first question: does it matter what I put in which bag? I have literally no idea what I am doing in regards to my kit.
Next, in regards to my uniform, I was told by one of the Sgts that I should come in uniform, though I have no idea how to properly wear a uniform or anything like that. Can anyone give me some guidance as to what to wear when I show up, including any patches and what not? Also, it says on the instructions to bring PT and civvies, and I was wondering if that should be in a separate bag or can it be in one of the duffle bags?
Lastly, what is meant by "marking your kit"? I saw that posted on here a fair bit as something good to do.
Thanks so much for any advice.
