I joined at 16, 23 years ago I've 6 tours of Northern Ireland, 3 of the Balkans, 1 Gulf war, 1 invasion of Iraq and 3 tours of Afghanistan under my belt with no major injury all at the sharp end so to speak so don't worry that much when she does go not that me saying that will help much because you will. My mum refuses to watch the news or read the paper when I'm away in case she see something she doesn't want to, just remember her mates will be there to look after her when she goes away.

One of my mates who went in the mob trained at Winchester, he went to AAC. He got an award, as he didn't find the training too hard. It was funny him and a few others who went in to the services found the cadet camps easier.

As for the detachments to conflict areas, thats what the game is about. Unfortunately alot of people forget this when they sign on the dotted line.
