It takes like 1 year from applying to actually going to basic training, what a joke. If you want to solve the recruitment shortage then fix the admin side its laughable
I wanted to go in as a Nursing Officer only to fail the medical because i had kidney stones 15 years ealier. The reason they underlined was i would be a liability on the battlefield but excuse me, isnt people with HIV (who can now join) more of a liablility? I think the standards are ridiculous and when i asked my local MP about it, he didnt want to know!
Why would you join the army ? The British goverment middle and upper classes despise us, we are hooligans and rascist fruit cake loons, until they want to start a war with somebody why would I want to fight in UK/USA manufactured wars to launder taxpayer money ? Russia and China are not my enemies, my enemies are the British, USA and Israeli goverments. Are you a MOD shrill ? You never mentioned all the Ex service people that sleep on the streets when illegals are put up in free hotels, your having a laugh bruv, the only army I'd be happy to join would be a peoples army to fight the political and establishment classes that have pissed over us in this country for years and years, and no, I am not a lefty.
I agree entirely mate; let those illegals fight for it - if they would, which I doubt. But the question that needs asking is if people like us, the ordinary citizens, were to fight the establishment, and the establishment called out the army to defend them, would the soldiers fight their own people.?
And this are the reasons I want to join the royal tank regiments, that and the fact that I want to feel useful to someone because I don’t know what to do with myself 😢
Until the political situation in this country changes and the Native British population is put FIRST, I would not fight for a country that I no longer feel is my home.
Hey, I've applied for the assessment centre and in looking to join the army, i put down my aspirations as infantry. Im 16 years old and have little time in school left, any training tips? I don't know what trainings I should start before I'm invited.
@@FFSgetRidofLabourScumbags Appreciate the help, I have been unable to find sources on whether or not you train at the recruitment center or not. Also after applying, how long will it take for me to be able to be at the level required. I was told about the next Harrogate openings but that was about it.
@@RaigEXPpretty sure the openings is one in September and the other in like March for Harrogate but you should train to run and train for the bleep test do pushups and sit ups and press ups and all sorts and really build yourself
Very simple, risk or lose your life for your country?, ask those in the last century if they would have done this seeing what is currently happening in in our country at the moment.
Hi Calvin here,am currently serving in my country in the military and am interested in joining the British army by applying this month,is it possible to apply while still serving?
Not one of my mates who has left is glad they left every single one would go back in an instant if they could. For one reason or another they had to leave but I'm now going in at 33. I start my basic in less than 2 weeks. I'm buzzing for it, I can also see how hyped my army and ex army mates are. all the civvy mates are worried for me haha!
@@merg-vh5sx There should be information about this (including whom/where to ask questions of) on the British Army's website. There will be particular trades that are more in demand than others (thus a faster enlistment). I have a brother in law and a cousin in law who joined the RN from the Coastguard (Trinidad & Tobago). When you get in, make a point of finding out about how and when to apply for Naturalization, which is usually after being in for five years. If citizenship is not obtained by the time one finishes their contract in the military, they have to return to their own country (which is damned ungrateful, IMO).
The amount of people I have seen properly done up there single accommodation is insane. One of the lads I know made his room into a literal jungle (exotic plants and also a cool fish tank). Dirt cheap with electric covered. He had that many LED strips I'd be worried if an epileptic went in.
Great video. I'm looking into joining the regs, after what feels like, wasting my time in reserves. Basically a lack of opportunities. We're only training just to tick boxes to make bounty for each April. I have to say, I don't like the fact that I have to redo the application and selection centre again. I accept that I will have to do the regs phase 1 training, but I don't agree having to reapply all over again. Anyway, I've put Royal Artillery down for my first option. I'm interested in doing either UAS or AS90. I've also got Army Air Corps as my second pick. From the information I can find, their ground crew has some nice trades within their role.
I will look to do some more videos on trades but best of luck, hope all goes well and keep me posted. It is a shame that you can’t just transfer to regulars as I thought you could, I would do some more digging if I was you, maybe try speak to RCMO at a regiment you are looking to join and see if they can speed up the process.
I appreciate that. I'm a bit unsure which regiment to go for. I like the fact most of the regiments are in Larkhill. Nearer to home. Yh, I finally decided to email the PSAO last November, after putting it off for a few months. I was still hoping to get a deployment by then. Not hearing anything back from Op Interflex, gave me the push to look into the regs. Basically, the PSAO and REMSO said due to me not being in the reserves for long, I will need to start a new application. And I have to be discharged beforehand. Because apparently I can't have 2 contracts going at the same time. I phoned the careers office about this, and they said to make a new application and go from there. I'm currently waiting for my GP to square away my medical, then I've got selection after that. The recruitment team doesn't seem to mind that I'm still currently in the reserves.

Dose it? So I’ve got my assignment on the 9th of next, how long you think it will take to get to basic if I past?

Don't worry about it and lucky you, you don't want to join and are saved from years of bulls***.

Which is more difficult British army or royal marines?
I’m confused on what to join
Very simple, risk or lose your life for your country?, ask those in the last century if they would have done this seeing what is currently happening in in our country at the moment.
Five reasons to join and hundreds not to. Its bleak.
Hi Calvin here,am currently serving in my country in the military and am interested in joining the British army by applying this month,is it possible to apply while still serving?
Plss sir I need you to plss recommend me to the uk army, I want to apply on the 19 sir. Plss i need your help sir.
Go on the British army website mate and apply through that
My only fear of joining is the racism, the story’s you hear is quite upsetting
It’s not what you think I never saw it especially not what I read in the papers
"too join the British army " ????? perhaps to learn to spell .....
Maybe 😂😂
Asssesment centre on the 25th hoping to join the Scot’s guards I have had people non stop telling me not to join the infantry🤣
Before the money was good and if you married the safety net was good for wife and children not so good to day be honest now
I just wanna man up. I have a hard time getting respect especially from other men. Im a bit older tho. Im 27. Is it a good idea to join?
This cant be a real statement? you have to be a bot??.
@@pureblood4386 Why can't it be?
@@keifer7813 Because it sounds so weak and feminine.
@@pureblood4386 Well that's too bad. It's the truth
@pureblood4386 and you just prove the lads point, grow up you fool cause your such a tough man's man aren't ya 🤦
