Joining the Army was the best thing I've ever done.
Use your G.I fund and go to school when your overseas if your smart.
It's all online.

Hey man,I'm 18 and im currently in the process of joining the U.S. Army.
From the sound of it your very smart. If your going to join,make sure its for something that
You are going to love without a doubt. Because in america once you pick what you going into your there until the end of your contract. I'm not sure how the British military works.
But if you do decide to join,Please just make sure your doing it for all the right reason's man.
Best of luck to you.

I Am also joining the british army i live in birmingham and i want to join The Royal Regiment Of Fusiliers i went to the army recruitment office in town the other day and they offered some great advice (i am also 16) They gave me loads of leaflets and job choices as i am going for infantry. If you are deciding to go for infantry you will have to do 24weeks training at harrogate army base then do a further 24weeks training (Only if you are going for infantry).

If you are also 16 you should deffinetly consider joining Next January or this september coming When they are recruiting and taking in new recruits. The best bet is to join now because if you wait till you are 17 you will be placed with all the adult military personnel . Where as if you join now at 16 you will placed on a Army apprentaship with only 16year olds and it will be alot easier for you to get in as a younger soldeir training with people your own age rather that going with people who are like 25+ Years old.

Other that that you have to sit a B.A.R.B Test which is a basic infantry test for everyone who wants to join the british army all it is, is a basic English, Maths and science classroom exam and you will need to score more that 34-36 i cant remember and if you pass they will take you on a a new recruit.

-Hope this helped you and Be sure to think about your decision Before you join Because once you serve 24weeks is along time.

Well sorry about that but they would never do that. Your dad's friend was just unfortunate enough for that to happen to him and I am very sorry for him.

It's definitely okay to be thinking about it, but you want to do it for all the right reasons. Not just because it might be "cool" or "fun". It's a very big life changer and requires a lot of thought. You've got to have a passion for it and want it really badly deep down. Good luck with your decision.
