May sound very big-headed but straight after my training, I am going to have a chat with some of the officers in the respect of me being deployed a.s.a.p.. I have only been told it's when your CO thinks you are ready to do this that you are deployed.
I am hoping I could get a tour under my belt, maybe two or three if I am good enough for the TA/Army.. at which point I would like to do some serious work! in order to get deployed as soon as..
-I would also like to hear from others about this forum post, well about the deployment status times of newer recruits

any information is very welcome!
I don't know what age you are Digital, but if you are keen and the forces life is what you are after, then why not just join up full time? Unfortunately, due to past medical history, i cannot myself now. But I have been voluntarily mobilised in the past and am planning to apply for another one soon.
Just go for it and join the regulars.
IrishDoris: I'm 25 at present, and still going though as a recruit.. Starting Phase 1 this coming weekend!
I am going to go carry on with the TA training as far as I can(if they want me), then if I like what I have seen I am looking to either join up full time or hopefully take on and trying out for something special

from what I have seen of another post. I am going to give them a ring on Monday and see what's what.
-Hope they are open on a bank holiday! if not I will try again Tuesday morning.
Thanks for your reply IrishDoris, sorry for the delay in my reply posting I have been down at the gym again! I am hoping I have taken off a few minutes from my 1.5-7 Miles slog around Leicester TA barracks
