Handed in application september 2011, will have my specialist interview feb 2013. Dont know how long after that till i start training.

Taken longer as im a re-enlister and going for dog handler.

Good luck with your application!

Do it, i had a few 28yr olds, a 31yr old and 33yr old on same intake as me when i was training.

Go for it, you wont regret trying, you will always regret never going for it.

Sounds like your putting some effort in. As you may or may not know, dog handler is a very sought after job, highh number of applicants, few spaces. I should know, i am one of the applicants!! I wouldnt count on getting in to basic any time soon though, i applied last september, did adsc few months ...

Voted no, like SAS and BRF, it should be open for anybody who is up to the standard. Why be shouldnt your be accepted because of cap badge / force. Way i see it, if you can do a job it should be done, only way you shouldnt be allowed to do it is if you cant do it! Thats just my opinion though :popco...

MAROON beret!!!!! Quite correct Eddie, but the beret is as you know, widely called "The Red Beret" and the Regiment "The Red Devils", a respectful name given to the para`s in WW2 by our dear friends - the German`s - "Die Roten Teufel" not the "Maroon Devils"....

MAROON beret!!!!!

Glad i have seen that now and not this morning!! Just got home after doing my 1st ever static line parachute jump, and that would have made me even more nervous!

Had my ADSC at lichfield yesterday, and was extremely happy to be the only 1 out of 34 to get an A grade, which means i can go forward onto my specialist interview at Melton Mowbray. I got a run time on 9.21 so much improved on my pre-adsc run, and means i was in the run time for my 2nd job choice t...

Got my date for ADSC.

Anybody else going to Lichfield Tuesday 22nd May? If so, see you there!

Oh and what would be your preferred regiment to join by the way?

Have you thought about the possibility of a 6-7 month tour of duty in a place like afghanistan, that you may go on 6months after you finish your officer training? And in them 6months between training and going on tour, the 4months pre deployment training wher you will be away from home for a number ...

Hi, im not 100% certain, but i think to join EOD, yes you do have to go Royal Engineers, but you will have to join as an ammunition technician. If you are good enough they might assign you to an EOD unit but you wont be disarming bombs, and IED's. For that you will need to be an ATO (an officer trai...

Oh and something else my brother told me, assign an exercise to each room in your house. Like for me, i go in my front room and do 20 pressups. In my bedroom i do 30 sit ups. In the I'M A SCAMMER SPAMMER!!! i use the work top to do tricep dips.. On the stairs i can grab hold of the floor of the land...
