What do you like about your job and the company?
I remember seeing coverage of Gulf War I on the television as I was growing up; I remember thinking that I wished I could do something about these things rather than just watching them helplessly unfold on the television. I felt by joining the Army I had a chance to make a difference, and to play a part in the changing of history. I definitely feel the Army has allowed me to do this and still passionately feel that the British Army is a force for good with the potential to make significant changes.
Greatest achievements
I was fortunate enough to complete a year long attachment to the US Army. Initially I was stationed in Seattle, Washington, before deploying to Iraq on Operation IRAQI FREEDOM. On completion of my tour with them I was awarded the Bronze Star for meritorious service in a combat zone.

Haribo (or morale-i-bo) will get you through everything. The only thing you can ever prep entirely for is fitness so work hard. Treat everyone how you want to be treated, you never know when you might rely on them whether it be people you go through training with or colleagues and friends you meet along the way- the Army is a small place!

When I first applied for the Army I knew I could better my qualifications and travel around the world, but never knew I could gain so much more, for example I would have never of said in 10 years time I want to be a skiing instructor, but the Army has given me that experience and helped me work towards it.
