Why Did I Join The British Army | Last Day in Pirbright (Pt2)

[@demihunter9847]

I love that he asked the women recruits as well I would really love to see more videos showing what the women recruits do and their training just so us women who want to join can also get an insight also love the videos x

[@Bobbybulsara179]

Proper character this lad, all the camaraderie making me jealous, makes me want to join the regs.

[@KiatHuang]

Love the mix of these troops, their characters and attitude. A real eye-opener. When I was a first year at Uni, there was nowhere near that level of camaraderie. Makes me proud to be British knowing they are the next generation of the army.

[@RichCow-xe1bz]

I wish the young lad doing this the best of luck. I think he'll do well in his army career. It's these videos that show potential recruits what the army is like. Better than the official videos.

[@arwen_m7786]

Once again, wonderful content!

[@IRythmzGamingg]

Glad I found your channel Fabziy, currently in the process of applying and these videos are really helping to motivate me. Hopefully I'll be in the same position as these recruits some point this year! Well done to the recruits and all the best.
