Questions questions!

Post by Super Dan »

Sorry if any of this has been covered before.

Firstly me.. I'm a 23 year old Ambulance medic (NHS) looking to join 236 RLC at Salford, I've no military experiance but really want a go!

Couple of Q's - I'm not very fit (but can and do carry people up and downstairs everyday without problem) and overweight do I need to sort this out before joining or is it better to join and get fit with the TA?

I had childhood asthma but havent been medicated for it since I was about 18 (5yrs ago) would this cause a problem?

Does anyone have any experiance of the RLC i'd like to know the 'no holds barrred' version instead of the army website 'its all great' (perhaps it is?!?)

Also I am a qualified medic and by the looks could join as a medic (I have the quals needed) would anyone recommend this as a better option? (I would prefer to do the RLC but if there was a really good reason for being a medic I could be swayed!)

Thanks and sorry for all the questions!

Dan
