Personally joining the Army was a great decision. Its given me that stable career everybody wants. The opportunities within the Army are second to none whether it be from gaining qualifications in your chosen field to travelling the world doing various activities. If you give the Army your everything the Army will give you everything. As cliche as it sounds the army really does give you friends for life. You are all equally motivate and go through the same experiences which bonds you more than anything else in life.

One of the biggest pieces of advice I can give somebody who has an interest in joining the military is to simply be yourself. One of key values of the military is integrity, so as long as you're honest with yourself and being true to who you are, you can't go too wrong. Those who try to be somebody they're not always get found out, and false appearances can only be kept up for so long. I would also say work hard. If you continue to push yourself and push what you think are your limitations, you'll find yourself pleasantly surprised. Those who work hard in the military are very often rewarded and go on to have the more fulfilling, exciting career with an abundance of opportunities. Those who shy away from work or are lazy will again get found out very quickly and have less opportunities available.
