Found this on the MI6 site.
James Bond star Daniel Craig could be set to become an honorary Green Beret - reports the Sunday Express.
He is being lined up for the honour by the British Royal Marines – who first escorted him along the Thames when he announced his appointment as 007.
All they have to do is book the busy star in to complete a test of endurance. If he passes, he will earn his place among one of the world’s most elite military units.
Which surely beats movie after movie of having to save the world single-handedly?
A source at the Royal Marines training centre in Lympstone, near Exmouth, Devon, revealed:
“We were the ones who took Daniel to the press conference when he was revealed as the new James Bond.
“He was great – a really good guy – and he was very appreciative of our work.
“He supports the RNLI and is very interested in the Royal Marine Commandos too.
“We’re trying to get him down here to do one of the Commando tests so he can get his honorary Green Beret. It’s just about trying to find the time. He’s so busy.”
When Daniel, 40, does find a window, he will become the first Bond to be a real-life Royal Marine.
His screen persona’s full name is Commander James Bond, who joined MI6 after a distinguished career in the Royal Navy.
The star could hardly be in a better position to undertake the test.
He has spent the past few months doing stunts for his second Bond film, Quantum of Solace, including work acrobatics, fighting and stunt driving.
Bond producer Michael G Wilson said: “Daniel is amazing in the action work and this film he has more than doubled it.”
Daniel said: “I’m just doing very, very hard, strenuous rehearsal. I’m loving it.”
