    Hi Christopher,


    Life in the Army is fast paced and ever changing. Your experiences can vary in a whole host of ways dependant on which career stream you were aspiring to join.


    Myself as an example, Combat in Afghanistan, processing visas in Pakistan, supporting anti poaching in Mali, firefighting in Canada. The only limitation to your career is the one you put on yourself.

    despite almost 16 years of service to date i still have experienced everything there is to offer as there is is just so many opportunities.
