    Good morning,


    In short, unless you have a desire to pilot fixed wing aircraft, the British Army is better in every comparison.


    Travel, sports, self development, life experience and overall effectiveness. If you want an easy life i'd recommend joining the RAF. If you want challenges that unlock your full potential and fundamentally creates the best version on yourself, then the Army is absolutely the way forward.
