New Recruit + I got suggestion

Post by Dr.Craig »

Im 17 1/2 and have just taken medical etc and been kitted out with my kit now all I gotta do is traning :)

I noticed their is no TA area here and I think that would be quite cool if you could add it.

TO ADMIN/MODS - I currently have my own site and I have some small hacks for phpbb such as quick reply that maybe you could make use of :)


On a final note Hi everyone n les hope to a long time of me in here :)

Hi Dr. Craig, where abouts are you, what unit have you joined?

Also you can have a look at http://www.reserveforces.com it is a site for reservists from all the services.
There are 3 kinds of people: those who can count & those who can't.

I aint got the documents handy but its 102nd Royal Engineers.

By medical I mean blood tests, etc I just got home and decided to post here im not really a Doctor nor am I studying medicine. Im a student in Computer Internetworking

I see the TA as basicaly gettin paid for them to offer corses and I dont mind being sent away for 6 months.

Aight, cos u do know that the RE are the busiest regiment in the army... So u will be deployed, and most likely to Iraq...So if ur just doin it for the free courses then you might be in it for the wrong reasons...

I dont mind being sent to countries, but I dont like the reasons we went to war with Iraq. I choose to go to the TA to deveop myself both in fitness and in mind.

I want to keep myself busy also as a student with the TA and hopefully another job but I am not disputing the pay was a factor in going.

I class myself Scottish and not British but if Britain is in war I want to protect my country in what way I can.
