TA - Royal Engineers
Posted: Mon 07 Nov, 2011 7:30 pm
Hello,
im new to the forum and have recently joined the TA for the second and final time (i had to leave due to working away). i have decided to join the Royal Engineers and i soon have to decide on which tade i would like to learn within the Regiment.
i have found that options are limited unlike the regs due to time and training. i am a qualified plumber and gas engineer so i was hoping to do hvac - air con ect ect but this is not available.
i have joined the TA to serve in the british army, not to get away at the weekend. so my question is ... the regiment i have joined have had a few lads return from afghan. which trade would be the most likely to put me into contention for a tour of afghan in the future ? i believe the regiment are due out there again in 2013.
