God I wish Ireland had a foreign legion I would join in a heartbeat to serve Ireland just like my grandparents.

[@seansin5603]

Completely_Blank I'm pretty sure you can join anyway I'm not sure how but do a bit of research and you can find a way if you really want to join. But At the moment there is problems with the pay but hopefully that gets resolved soon as I want to join when I'm older.

[@peterkenny7810]

Excellent! As a former member of the Defence Forces it is great to seen how the standards have not only been maintained but improved upon. Really proud to have served and proud of those who serve. Defence Forces have high standards and it is tough to get in. Pity the Government didn't and still doesn't adequately reward that service.

do you have to be able to swim to qaulify for the defence forces

[@MRSquigglesish]

no

[@liamosullivan7927]

Well, you will have to learn to swim...definitely beneficial to learn before because there are alot of situations where you will need it in the feild and in training as shown in the video

[@MRSquigglesish]

Dont worry about swimming until you get in , its not a requirement

[@liamosullivan7927]

Squiggles yeah, that's kinda what I meant, you don't NEED NEED it, but it's definitely beneficial

[@MRSquigglesish]

Definitely , I was in the DF for a while and I couldnt swim but it wasnt a big deal

[@ethanoconnell1243]

Irish soldiers are very well trained and disciplined, but they lack numbers......their only down side

[@InfidelProductionz]

It's because the government neglects the army and pays them in peanuts

[@somethingidk8472]

Infidel Productionz because we are a neutral country, we don’t need a big armed forces.. common sense.

[@InfidelProductionz]

@@somethingidk8472 Just because we aren't at war doesn't mean the defense forces should be neglected. It's costing us more to train new recruits while the more experienced soldiers leave for better pay. Also most European countries aren't at war now yet they don't neglect their military like us.

[@InfidelProductionz]

@@rigby6038 That's your opinion. I think it's an embarrassment to have to rely on the UK to patrol our own borders. Most careers here have good wages, yet the soldiers get paid fuck all and they are the ones who put their lives on the line.

[@aaa-zz5tj]

@@rigby6038 "we have better stuff to spend money on" they are protecting your country. they are keeping peace. if we gave up on the army, who is going to defend our shores when some country begins to invade and knocks on our door?how can you justify 20 euro pay for 24 hour duty? you have to do TWO 24 hour duties PER WEEK. you'd get more respect and WAY better pay at a fucking mcdonalds
