Here you go fella. Have a look at this. Save me (once again) typing out the friggin obvious for you to ignore:
This tool helps you find out what benefits and allowances you could be entitled to as a Service person. You’ll be able to check your exact eligibility on some. Speak to your Unit HR to find out exactly what you’re entitled to and how to make a claim.

Incidentally, it's also strange how when asked, you neglected to state what rank/job you had. Instead you simply posted up how long you "did".
Shame issues or something?
Im going to hazard a guess here and suggest most people on here would know what a Stackers trade is...
Ive also stated my old rank many times on here, it was SSgt.
So why allude to some made up bollocks that I was avoiding saying either?
Did you bother your arse actually reading those "benefits"?
Language training!!!! Wow, except its only for certain roles and even then its obviously for the benefit of the Army, not the individual.
Annual leave!!!! Wowee because noone else gets holidays, but wait they do, civvies get a minimum of 28 leave a year. The army gets 10 days extra though, do those 10 days make up for all the lost days on guard/exercises/other bollocks that fall on a weekend?
Paternity leave!!!! Errr that the same for civvies
Medical care!!!! In the small print
You’ll receive medical care of a standard equivalent to that enjoyed by UK civilians. It is provided free of charge and there is no personal contribution. So the same as civvies then, except prescriptions are free. And as long as you are not bedded down, the Army will try to make you work even if its not your core role.
Basically most of what you grandly called benefits are fairly shite arent they? There are are few worth having if you want/need them. But its nowhere near the fantastic deal that you allude to.
Incidentally I'll get 49 days normal holiday this year (and I want either double bubble or 2 x TOIL if you are thinking of making me work a weekend) and my work place provides medical insurance, no matter where I am in the world.
But hey, day to day perks, right?
