I started my application on the Army website today. In the Regimental preference section there was no option for the Paras other than the 4th Battalion. There was also no option for the Royal Irish Regiment. Yes I tried emailing them but the website kept spearing in.

So has the Regiment stopped recruiting? Has it been disbanded?

Im applying from Australia too.

Cheers. :drinking:

I saw this actually being advertised on a job centre website for Parachute Regiment on REED.CO.UK so not sure if we are of high demand lol.

4 Battalion you say?? You must have applied to the TA. 1, 2 & 3 battalions are Regulars only.
