Alright gents? Welcome to the forum.
At 15, you're allowed to change you mind! It's just good to see you both looking in a meaningful direction.
If you haven't already done so, have a good look around the RAF and fitness threads. Use the Search option to look up key words and phrases of interest. There is a huge amount on fitenss, etc., info but be discerning and use your noodles to filter out the crap. Much of it is good solid stuff, but remember that anyone can post opinions here.
There are serving and ex-serving members on here from bottle washers to special forces. More experience than you could shake a stick at. So take the time to write well, ask intelligent questions when you get stuck, and have fun, too!

Welcome to the two of you.
I can't emphasise Anglo's comments enough.
You are both young enough to make a very defined choice.
Just bear in mind your physical capabilities.
Don't be too Gung Ho and say you want to be SF. You can choose that choice later!
And what in your heart do you really want to do?
When I joined, I had no idea what SF was. I joined the Royal Marines because I thought (and still do) think they were the best "Corps/Regiment" to join.

Welcome aboard you young`uns. There`s plenty of good advice here as long as you don`t ask any bone questions
