Anonymous asked a question to Paratrooper R.
Best route to be an officer in 1st battalion; can you be part of the SFSG too?
To become an officer in 1st battalion you will first have to serve a minimum of two years in second or third before being able to go through the selection process to become a platoon commander in SFSG. The best route is to go through RMAS and commission into the parachute regiment, once there you can provide a preference to move to first battalion when you are eligible.
