i know, name refers to my ACF rank.
How old are you, 17?
The reason I ask is, from experience with others, If you are thinking of "leaving the cadets to join the TA", you're best bet is to give it a good 6 months to a year before you make the jump as it were.
I'm no medical expert, And im not up with the rules and regs, however, as far as I'm aware, the "one army" concept also applies to the medical joining rules (In terms of previous or past conditions anyway).
Think long and hard before joining the TA. Its not cadets, Its nothing like cadets. Its not a youth club, Its a job.
The things you've learnt in cadets will undoubtably help you in some ways, not so much in others, but even if you ignore ALL my other advice:
DO NOT ever say "I know this, I learnt it in cadets" If you can, keep it as low key as possible in regards to telling people, Dont announce it to anyone, but
DO put it on your joining forms.
If you need help or advice on joining etc, post here, Or PM me.
