    Hi Jack,

    If it is law that remains your interest then absolutely a career in the Army Legal Service is for you. In order to become an Army Legal Officer you will need, in addition to your Masters, one of the following: Bar Professional Training Course/Legal Practice Course/Solicitors Qualifying Examination. This will then qualify you to apply.

    If not, I have served alongside a multitude of Army Officers who are law graduates across the whole spectrum of roles available. For that it really comes down to what interests you and what you’ll enjoy!
