    I just read up as much as I could about The Rifles so when he asked I knew the battalions, where they were and what they did. I came across very confident and enthusiastic and made it clear that I want a career out of the Army and I'm not one of the hoards of people who are only applying for the army because they can't get a job due to the recession. Plus my fitness is upto scratch so there were no concerns about sending me for selection. Also a warrant officer came into the interview half way through and asked me a few questions and he said he was impressed so I must be doing something right :D :D
