im joining the grenadier guards this september as a je:)

@x187xRnR Good on you, my Dad joined at 16 as a private, got RSM and is now a Major so isuppose it doesn't matter how you start you can always prove your self and do well! It's all about respect i suppose...

[mcca99]

Any one that joins the army is mad.

Perhaps they should show a video of a wounded soldier that has lost both arms and legs?

I think that would put many of these ''new'' recruits off.

[Vennegoor1993]

Possibly, however have you considered the act that instead of making a mockery of the British Army's recruitment scheme you should be praising the work they are doing, and the cause...

[IC2720]

It's obvious you have no sense of honor or duty towards your country. Even if YOU choose not to join, there are those who feel proud to serve. People that mock, just suck on the benefits of the work these lads do. Rest easy mate, there's a military that's doing it's job.

@cuevitas33 15 7 months mate

[black39gold]

I'm 14 years old at the moment. When I leave school I'm hopefully going to go to AFC Harrogate (if all goes to plan) then move on to ITC Catterick. I haven't made up my mind on which regiment to join, I seem to be stuck between the Rifles and the Grenadier Guards. Any tips or suggestions?

[cuevitas33]

Thinking of joining when I'm old enough isn't it 18?

People in the UK who mock the British Armed Forces, need to be executed in front of the nation and their families

@mcca99 Yet they are the reason you are not speaking german / in a concentration camp / being tortured by the gestapo. Just be glad there are people braver than you who are selfless enough to take those risks.

@mcca99

I know a young lad who was a highly paid pilot who is now serving in Helmand province. My old friend from school was accepted into oxford university, you can see him guarding buckingham palace as a regular guardsman today. I also know an economic analyst who became a geographic technician in the army and a man who gave up a well paid IT job. He's in the paras now. I have a degree in geology and I'm heading to sandhurst soon. So I don't think the words half celled and all of that fit thi

@mcca99 They have no choice ingoing or not going , halfway across the world,they have signed on as professional soldiers to do their duty anywhere they are sent and know the risks,i can assure you they are NOT mental ,very many have degree's ,have you? i have,and consider the thousands of servicemen who have left their boring jobs and sedentary lives to enlist,i had eighteen good years in the R.E.M.E,and came out to a good job and a pension,A pity they don't bring back national sevice,

[mcca99]

@barneyboscoe What the fuck are you talking about. ww2 is completly different, MASSIVE respect to the lads that defended Great Britain. But im sorry in this day and age why a young man would want to go half way across the world to fight a war (if you can even call it that) that means nothing they are in my opinion mental. Do you think its coincidence that many new recruits have failed at school and look at the army as a last resort? I love Britain but anyone with half a brain cell dosn't join.,

[barneyboscoe]

@mcca99 And tell me,brain donor,where would we be without an army to guard us,had Germany invaded back in the 40s had you been born ,you would have been one of the first to scream for your mother.you silly selfish bastard
