  • British army Parachute Regiment recruits are suffering from fatigue on a rigorous forced march conducted as a squad, over undulating terrain with each candidate carrying a Bergen (backpack) weighing 35 pounds (plus water) and a weapon. The lads are slowly buckling under the weight of backpack Bergens and weapons carried on a hot day and without drinking enough fluids. The 10-mile march must be completed in 1 hour and 50 minutes and it forms part of the 14-week long Pegasus (P) Company selection programme that recruits wanting to join the British Army's elite Parachute Regiment, held regularly at Catterick army barracks in Yorkshire, need to pass (with other tests) before earning the right to wear the esteemed maroon beret.
