Oliver,
The initial contract is for 12 years, of this a minimum of 4 years must be served.
Like any other job, you'll be able to see your family unless you are in work, this includes training, exercises, and operations.
You can start the application process from 15 years and 7 months.
Basic Training teaches you lots of skills like fieldcraft, marksmanship, battlefield first aid, law of armed conflict, and drill, to name a few. There's a good video on the Army Jobs website, here: Soldier Training | Army Jobs
Have a question of your own?
How often do you see your friends and family from home?
