i thought about this earlier in the year and went to the army carears office. had a chat with them and did some aptitude tests. the plan was to join up as an ammo tech and hopefully end up doing bomb disposal. i'm 27 aswell and thought i needed a new direction in life. but after a few weeks thinking about it i thought i was better off where i was. i still get the urge because some of my m8s are marines and alot of my family were in the milatary but at this age i dont think i could take all the shit without losing my temper! it would be a massive shock to the system to not be completely independant. just something to think about.
