Anybody IN/BEEN to the Navy? HELP..

Tue Apr 16, 2013 3:23 pm

Hey lads, Big game tonight!

I was wondering if there was anybody on here thats been in the Royal Navy, or is in the Royal Navy.

Always wanted to join the armed forces, but never really gave it a big thought up until a few weeks ago. Just wanted to ask a few questions as i'm really giving it a big thought.

Want to do something in my life, and dont want to be stuck around doing a normal day to day job (No disrespect).

I studied IT in college for 3 years as that Is what I wanted to do. But am currently working in a factory.

Any help would be great! :ayatollah:

Enjoy the game today lads, and make the stadium rock! :malky:

All i know, to join the navy you must jump off a balcony equivalent to top board in empire wearing full uniform. It's about 60-70 foot drop into water. When i heard that i was out.

If your fit and want the challenge of being an infantry soldier, then look at the marines (navy) or army infantry. Local infantry army unit is royal welsh based in tidworth. Aside from that i'd look into an army corps such as sigs or engineers where you will really get to develop, master and add to the skills you have in I.T. Get yourself down the armed forces careers office. Im going regs in the army next year having spent 2 years as a reservist and thats why I have a slight army bias. Its a great career and is a real profession where your progression is directly proportional to your ability and effort
