Would you have been considering a career in the Armed Forces if you had not been made redundant? It shouldn't be considered as a fallback just because there is nothing else out there.

He He.

Yes, Andrew. Far too intelligent to be a Seaman Gunner though.

My point was that many people in todays current economic climate think that just because there are few jobs around that the Armed Forces will take just anyone. This is not the case. It is very competive - particularly for the navy - as there is a long waiting list for the majority of jobs.
