My time within the Army Reserves has been absolutely amazing and works perfectly around work, and other commitments.
You can gain so much from being part of the Reserves and meet some amazing people who become lifelong friends.
It's not all work there’s some great social events, and also Adventure Training where you can gain qualifications not only to use within the Army but also in everyday life.
The highlight of my career so far is completing Phase Two training.
I have been skydiving in Germany, skiing in France and conducted a battlefield tour in Poland.
I am looking forward to gaining my driving qualifications and attending a basic signalling course. My main aspiration is to go on an operational tour with my unit.
The Army offers endless opportunities and is something I have never looked back on. I have met so many great people and pushed myself out of my comfort zone. I would recommend it to anyone.
