Hi mate just wondering about the infantry and I am questioning on joining the RAF regiment or the rifles and wanted to know which one is better . Or if you would recommend another role

[@Rangermedia]

I really don’t like comparing units as everyone as a particular job to do. The choices there would depend on what you want, if you want the full infantry experience with the choice of all roles it’s Rifles all day. The RAF regiment are an infantry unit but their main role is to protect airfields for the RAF whilst deployed. I just know more about the Rifles as I’m Army and I’ve worked closely with them and know a lot of people serving in them. Still do abit of research on the RAF Reg as the decision needs to be yours as it’s your journey/career.

[@curt6926]

@@Rangermedia thanks mate

[@lazyc1412]

Can you explain this 'extra money' for being deployed? Thought we don't get hazard pay? How much for how long etc?...Thanks!

[@Rangermedia]

LSA, Is a bonus that gets added on to your wage once you leave for operations or exercises. Each time you deploy on these taskings your Lsa days increase. The more days you have the more money you get. Someone who is just arrived to unit will be on a much lower band of LSA than someone who has a few years of deployments behind them, either on ops or exercise. There are more bonuses available, just to many to list here.

With regards to training if your 15 and still to go to uni then best advice is just stay active, join any active clubs in or out of uni. Once in uni look at the UOTC that will help you prepare and give you a good start.

Any idea about the role of royal artillery?

[@ellashaw3253]

I’m 14 a girl and since I turned 13 I’ve always wanted to be in the army just I don’t want to at the same time because I don’t wanna you know Die 😦 and as well I’ve always wanted to be an actor but for army films so it’s kinda the same but different

[@YoutubeHatesLucas]

14 but not a girl lmao, I'm set on joining either way at 16 tbh, Dying shouldn't happen I hope ;)

What if anyone can be transfer from RM to Army Officer because RM age limit for Officer is 26 .

[@Rangermedia]

Yea I believe Army officer is in sandhurst by your 30th Birthday, anything above that is a case by case basis.

[@coolswag-1155pm]

How is the reserve infantry different to the regular infantry ?

[@Rangermedia]

They wont have a specialist role, they will be light role. Then the difference is, its just part time . You can get attached to a Regular unit for deployments but need to seek the time of with your normal employer.

[@GuitarDudeBoii]

Were you ever able go to US Ranger School?

[@Rangermedia]

Unfortunately not, but the opportunity will be there at a later day for different guys in the Regiment.

[@dancooper2398]

Hi I was wondering, can I join one regiment and then change to another later down the line ?

[@Rangermedia]

skull beats Yes mate, you can transfer to anywhere in the Army but internal transfers inside the Infantry would be a lot more smoother.

[@dancooper2398]

[@aydensucks4121]

[@andrewkinnear1752]

Can you do a Royal Marines vs paras pls

[@hshahbrushbacka5818]

Would going light protected mobility infantry be doing the same type of role as going light cavalry in armoured corps? I can’t decide on which I would rather go for, any information would be a real help.

[@Rangermedia]

I think light cav potentially have warrior, not 100% though. So light mech you have the Foxhound as the main vehicle used mostly by the Rifle coys then there’s quads, jackals, coyotes, husky etc. You will do more on feet stuff as well as the vehicles than what light cav would.
