Alright, I am 16 years old and I have seriously been considering a Military Career in Australia since I was 14 [Pernament career with the ARMY]
However, I am not sure if I should just enlist as soon as I turn 17 as a normal soldier or should I finish the two years of college and go to the Royal Military College of Duntroon and spend 18 months there to become an officer?
I really want to get into the army as soon as I can, but I also want to stay within the military as long as I can [As in, once I get "Too Old" I could still have something to do with the army] and I think that you can only stay in the Army afterwards if you went to RMC Duntroon.
Damn I aint doing a good job at explaining this :x
I dont want to go to College, but if I choose to go to RMC Duntroon I have to graduate from College, and when I finish at RMC Duntroon I will become a Officer in the Army. However, next Year I am turning 17 and then I would be able to enlist into the army, but I wont be an officer and I am not sure if you can stay in the army when you get too old for actual service.
I cant imagine doing anything other than joining the army [Perhaps a cop, but that would be boring] and this really has my balls in a woodchipper. So are there any Aussie's or Yanks out there that could help me?
