    Hi Keiron,


    Being a Plumber in the Army is 2nd to none. Learn the trade and in addition; get paid to travel the world, play sports and talk to your mates.


    My only frustration for you is that you are already studying some form of Plumbing qualification, when instead you could have joined the Army become a fully qualified plumber whilst also getting a fulltime wage.
