Yes, for this to happen you must have completed your 5 year medical degree and then specialise into this field after, guidance of how to do so will be covered once you are in the job role.

Hello, the military community is a small one, the medical one is even smaller! So if you have an interest in a particular speciality, it is very easy to find opportunities to get in touch with consultants and trainees in that cadre, and help with research/audit etc.. to build your cv. You are likely to be granted time to attend conferences and courses, and there may even be some funding available depending on what it is you would like to do.
Often GDMOs score highly in specialty applications due to the time they have to put a strong CV and application together.
I hope that helps.
