    Hi Bradley,


    I'm sorry to hear you had issues previously. Certainly not in keeping with how i know the Army.

    The option to transfer is typically always and option. Having said that, if you were previously medically discharged I'd say it would be extremely unlikely to be an option for you now especially if you received a payout of some sort.


    Ultimately the only way to really know is to link in with your CoC and ask to transfer. Note, this can't be done whilst in training. Every unit within the tri service is obligated to take immediate action if you desire a change. As long as you haven't transferred more then twice. Worth a shot if it's your dream.
