Yeh no problem so for me I loved it there. My day to day role was mostly servicing trucks when we weren't out on driving taskings. You do 2 driving exercises a year which are great fun. They run many driving courses so you can drive most vehicles by the time you move on to your next reg its also a great place to be if you enjoy sport.

So you do one infantry exercise a year and you also do a range week which is great fun going into villages and stuff

Typically you will join a main stream regiment made up of RLC trades after that you can be posted to attached regiments or ever squadrons most main streams are very similar my best advise ? Go to a mainstream that has the most going on at the time to get more Experience, USE THE SUSTAINER !!!

I promoted on my second year of being there as long as you keep your head down and get on with your job you do well. You get all the licences upto C+E from training then once you get to unit you can get what ever you like except motorcycle
