    Of the RAC only the Light Cavalry attend phase 1 in Catterick, the rest go to Pirbright.

    When I spoke with my recruiter they said I can only pick RAC not a specific job role. I want to join a tank regiment with the Kings Royal Hussars.

    When do I get to specify what exact role I’d like to do?


    Asking all questions I can as there isn’t much information on it and my recruiter isnt very knowledgeable on this topic.


    Many Thanks

    Morning Rishi so when i was in phase 2 after like 4 weeks you have to put a form in to say were you want to go i picked KRH as my first choice and got it.


    you pick three places and they let you know were you are going to go after a week of picking but there is 3 tank regiment to pick from KRH,QRH,RTR.


    Hope this helps
