Zero Limits Podcast · Ep. 247 Eddie Robertson "Fast Eddie" 2nd Commando Regiment - Private Security Contractor · 7 May 2026 podcast

It's almost 30 years ago for me.

Yeah, I know, yeah.

So they said there's no spots in the regular army for you, so you're going to have to go like reserve infantry.

And I think the options for me were –

I can't remember that.

It's not 4-3.

It was a Victorian infantry reserve unit down in Melbourne.

I can't remember the name of it, but then there was also two company, 1st Commando Regiment.

And I didn't know about, I didn't really know anything about the Choco Commandos.

I had no idea until an older bloke said to me, mate,

Why don't you go down to the Chocks?

And this was going through my recruitment process.

So this was already ordained before I went to Chipperga and Singo.

So I was going back down to Melbourne, or I was going down to Melbourne to parade at two company where I was going to attempt to do my Chocko selection and

Rio cycle, eventually parachute.

But what I wanted to do was go down there and get the ball rolling but then transfer to the ARA.

And I would have been happy to go to one, two, three.

My ambition was to just go.

But I thought at that stage to go to two company at Williamstown, Fort Jellybrand, would have been a good way for me to get in there.

So after I finished C&O, I went down to Melbourne.
