It is not possible to be a CMT and an officer, however some officers do resign their commissions in order to pursue a career path only available to soldiers. I am afraid I am not too sure on how the reserves manage their posting to regiments, if you start an application on the Army website the team should be able to help answer any more questions you may have. https://apply.army.mod.uk/how-to-join
