Robert I'm not 100% sure on the answer but I think it is highly likely that you would have to complete phase 1 training again. The change in training over 16 years has been vast and I doubt you would be able to pass all the mandatory tests. Unfortunately since you didn't pass complete Phase 2 you would have to start that again too. Did you complete Phase 1 training? Robbo

Yeah smashed phase 1 first time round. Done the mile and a half in under 9 minutes. Fitter and stronger than i was at 17 so not really bothered about having to do basic again if i have too.
