Hello,

It is possible and there are many single parents who are serving. The army are helpful when it comes to accommodation etc.. but they are not able to assist with childcare, so it is important that you think about how you wish to manage this, particularly during your initial training and any subsequent deployments or exercises.

Best of luck with your application.
