Hey all sorry for my last post! I'm trying to keep this somewhat relevant to my questions. I have made this as to the point as possible.
I've got a question for current and ex RE or RLC soldiers.
What trades would you recommend? I mean for when you leave the army? I think the most you can do Is 24 years service!
I'm thinking of doing RLC first time round or for my first half and then RE for the rest If possible. This way you can get specialist driving licences for nothing and then go Into a trade HGV and Electricans are good trades you'll not struggle to much when you leave the army to find a job!
If I got or get Into the RE I'd choose electricians and or plumbing.
Having loads of vehicle licences makes car Insurance cheaper and driving jobs easier to get, when you leave. And If you go Into the RE later you can earn qualifications and get another trade double whammy!
I heard you can re-enlist If you wanted to. I wanted to go as a Para first time round and I was super fit failed on something and want to try again.
I was told or advised go the rifles then the paras for instance so If you wanted to you can transfer or re-enlist!
But I'm thinking sensible! I no longer want a main Infrantry role! what trade should I do?
What trade/trades would make someone highly enjoyable when they come out?
Is doing 12 year In the RLC? And then 12 years In the RLE as a electrician a wise move?
I've checked alot I think most regiments It's 32/35yo Is the oldest they'll accept for most regiments I think so. You'd have to rejoin before this age.
But never the less any ex drivers or ex sappers answer my questions?
