Hey,
Im on the Int Corps Jan intake! (24th Jan ATR Winchester). Should be good fun(!)

Thanks Taylor,
Yeah i cant wait to join now. Good luck on you RSC, just give 100% and you will pass no problem (I wreckon RMP will take you if you have the presonal qualities they are looking for!)

yeah i think they are meant to come on the Saturday, but you know the post office Best of luck Maverick, let us know how you get on

Glad to help Maverick.

Yes you be issued with the number for Sandhurst with your joining instructions, however, these will not come until just before your entry date into RMAS. The number is 01276 412556, so as soon as you pass RCB (I found out on the Monday post after I got home from work!) get on ...

Hi Maverick,
I think there is very little chance you will get on the January intake; I am joining as a soldier in January (partly due to my frustration with the officer selection process although i decided i wanted to join as a soldier anyway.... passed my briefing with a cat 1. in March, had to ...

Well if you have your heart stuck on Signals sparky, then good luck to you :) Like JJ said though, I think there are RE electrician places available (there was someone on my RSC who was going for that and he only had to wait 4 weeks!). It seems harsh that you would have to go to RSC again though ...

Gazza, are you sure you would have to start the process all over again if you choose other job choices? I have recently changed my job preference from RMP to linguist after passing RSC (only have one job choice) and when I passed RSC the officer said if i didn't pass the linguist tests then i still ...

Know the feeling mate. I wish I could quit work right now and start tomorrow, but it will be worth the wait Make the most of your time now, once your in opportunities to see your mates will be few and far between.

Cheers mate, i cant wait to start basic. Ive always wanted to be a soldier, and i cant believe im actually doing it at last! Yeah i suppose most elements of your phase two training will be stuff you already know, which can only help :) Besides, as an electrician you get the best of both worlds eh ...

Nice one JJ, not long to go for you then! Thats a good choice mate; always good to get a trade behind you and you will always be in demand in the Army.

Cheers guys! Careers Office have told me it could be November/December at ATR Winchester, so just sitting tight now; cant wait to go in! Im going in RMP JJ, what about you?

sod the civvy police, i want to be in the Army. They may get better pay in civvy street, but i'm not going in for the money. I want to travel, and really get my hands dirty.

(Bad news for the ones you'll be chasing!)

yeah never thought of that good point! i'll be able to nick em' twice as quick!

Not quite sure JJ, although I think you do it on your own but you can bring someone with you (girlfriend, parents etc.) I will be doing it soon; just passed RSC! I know you have to wear a suit though, according to my ACO.

Cheers. I want to join the RMP Air Assault unit so i will hopefully get to do P Company training. Yeah there is a slight hill towards the end, i didn't like the route at all and it was pissing it down as well. There are markers everywhere so that really motivates you to push yourself.
