Anonymous asked a question to Paratrooper R.
As during my Assessment Centre a member of staff from the Infantry told me that excluding PRAC, P-Company and the 3 week jump course Paratrooper and Infantry training is no different. I had assumed there would be a greater emphasises on fitness in comparison to the Infantry, which is one of the factors that interested me, as well as being drawn to the regiments reputation and history.
Parachute Regiment training is no different to infantry training, apart from we have greater emphasises on fitness and that's to get the recruits ready for P-company. So recruits going through Para training, will find their time at Catterick more physically demanding.
