Hello everyone, I have just begun my Officer application for the British army. It’s obviously still very early stages at the moment, but I have always had my sights firmly set on the guards division; particularly the Grenadier Guards or the Coldstream Guards. I have been doing some research into the roles and also came across a particular statistic that each year there are only about 5-10 cadets each year that commission into each guards division. Does this sound right to anyone and if so would it be setting my sights too high at trying to apply for this particular branch of the military? I personally have very little family connection with the Military, only my grandfather being in the army. I was in the cadets at a younger age but, I don’t know if I would be ‘worthy’ enough to commission into such a prestigious regiment and whether I should set my sights on a different career within the military.
Thank You
