This has really upset and worried me. I know they have to face terrible conditions in Afghanistan, etc., but surely there should have been more supervision and observation on a training exercise.

These were fit guys, used to pushing themselves physically and mentally. For their exhaustion to prove fatal means the levels the exercise supervisors pushed for were unrealisitic in light of the weather.
The SAS are not super heroes, just highly skilled and dedicated individuals. The mentality that these guys would have adopted would have been a "never quit, never give up" mind set. You dont give up, you dont say no and you dont stop. BUT this has killed them.

ummmm....typing styles are same...sorry but true but only my opinion even down to stylised form of writing (could be wrong but that's my conclusion).
As for OP this has upset me too and as has been said....it's a training exercise and should never be considered the same as "for real" in conditions. I've always thought they push training too far in the forces but that's just my opinion.

My cousin has completed his 14 weeks basic this year. My uncle is a retired RAF officer with 30 years experience in the armed forces. My knowledge comes from them but we havent spoken about this issue, no doubt they will have a good insight. Everybody will have an opinion and that is their right. But its those that have first hand experience that I form my views on, if I havent been there and done it myself
Not only to you raise this issue on my thread Daisy, but then you open another post. I am not going to report your comments - I shall let them stand. But I will add that a very intelligent man like Nox is likely to have a daughter who is articulate and intelligent and as she is home educated has access to the internet.
I believe your other post has gone which is a good thing.
