No I would no longer reccomend people to join the military, I and all my cousins served, I joined when I was 15 and finished in my mid 40s, My dad served as did his dad and his dad before that. We served when Britain was a nation to be proud of and when the warrior class was respected by our political masters. I would not let NR junior or his cousins sign up for this shithole of a country.
Todays military is used and abused by self serving politicians from idiots like Cameron to traitors like GW Bushes lackey Blair. Our country surrendered to the IRA and made its leaders Ministers it even allowed them to own guns for self defence something they deny the rest of society. Labour even tried to give away Gibralter when it was in office. They prosecute soldiers for doing their jobs and prevent them from shooting first when they see a terrorist be they IRA or Al Quaeda. We pander to and appease those who hate this country and treat with contempt thos who defend it.
Also whilst our boys n girls are fighting another proxy war for the yanks (The US having become PART of the Axis of evil rather than leading the fight against it) We find Muslim extremists including jihadists and Mujahadin / Al Quaeda being offered refugee status and sanctuary in the UK. ( Often with fatal consequencies).
We see huge families of former Iraqi or Afghan or Somali extremists being given luxury homes in the UK whilst army veterans were told they would have to wait decades for a house.
HL mon ami, todays world, todays army and todays national psyche is totally different to what it was in our day, just look at how todays politicians are selling out the Paras from 1972 for minor political gain.
Possibly join for the training but get the hell out before your life is wasted doing the dirty work for the Yanks or Europeans.
I was proud to serve in the greatest army on earth as part of the best Infantry Regiment ever as well as doing time in other regiments, I would not do it again today this country is not worth it. Besides our next war will be against the Europeans or the Americans and I'm sick of defeating them
Today our young survivalists should take advantage of the numerous highly skilled veterans running training courses to gain the skills they need rather than take the oath to a country not worth fighting for.
