Me and a mate are thinking of applying..
Anyone on here in, if so whats it like.
Ive looked on the site but would like some info from people who actually have experience.
How often do you go to training etc, we have a T.A centre close by so would we just go there say once a week?
Whats the pay like?
Is it good, like do you get to do some interesting things?
Any info is helpful.

Yeh mate the one in fallings park..
How come you dont get a lot of choice?
ON the website it makes out like once you've completed your basic training you can move into specialized areas such as engineering, combat etc.
Ive found out its one evening a week and one weekend a month which would mean an extra £200 a month roughly which aint bad.

Am in the regular Army and from what Ive heard it the job you do depends on what your local unit is. You will get to do interesting stuff adventurous training, training exercises, range days etc. Best way to find info out is going into your local careers office and ask questions
