BNO與其去做慈母　不如加入英軍

Have you been in the UK for long? I would think it is easier for the Army to do background checks on you the longer you stayed in the UK.

我係英國讀大學咋
今年先第2年係英國
一係我join 上面巴打提過嘅uotc

多謝巴打意見
uotc 唸得過
做吓officier 位好過solider 喇

其實我本身讀緊相關醫療科先唸住入medic unit
不過訓練吓leadership skills 好似好啲

For information on UOTC, please have a look at the link below for details -

As you are a British Citizen, have you consider the Royal Navy or the RAF?

Royal Navy - University Royal Navy Unit

RAF - University Air Squadrons

https://www.raf.mod.uk/universityairsquadrons/

今年先第2年係英國 - have you got a National Insurance (NI) Number? If not, go and get one from the Department for Works and Pensions (DWP) -

It will be easier for you to look for jobs in the UK once you got an NI number.

Raf usual commitment 係12年，咁你army有無話要至少做幾多年？同埋raf要26歲前一定要做咗iot，army係咪無咁多規矩？最後一樣如果兩隻手成個手臂都有紋身會唔會有影響？

屌sor我要打英文我打中文好撚慢
1 ask the careers office. They know better than any one of us.
2 erm i only know the officer's route. Basically, you would be admitted to Royal military academy Sandhurst after you passed aosb. Then, you would be asked initially what regiment or corps u wanna join by your platoon commander(有three choices). At the very last two weeks of your training(44weeks for regular officers and 8 weeks for reserve), u would be asked again which two u wanna join the most and u would get interviewed by the regiment. If both regiments dun bloody want you lol, u get thrown to the pool and other regiments who still have space left can pick you. If more than two regiments chose you of cuz u can choose which one to join.
3 depends which role of cuz. Usually infantry or royal armoured corps死得最多. 我個人會choose RMP once i m in Sandhurst.
4 唔知

At least three years if you are joining regulars.
Reserve you can leave after three years i think.
Tattoos usually doesnt Really matter unless its on your face haha

Oh yeah you need an NI no. If u wanna join uotc or any job in the British Army

Well usually for officers grade, they are quite well-educated and taught not to be racist. As long as you are not acting like a dick they wont give a damn. Knowing how to take the piss is the key

去下啦
為港增光

上面話一入就要3年
我2年後都畢業
我都係去問吓啲職員先

又唔好信哂d人呀in careers office
好多時佢地想昆9你落darp
我知因爲我都幫過手做宜d陰則野

hi bro, mind if you share your tg?

2 role係佢根據你能力派定自己選擇？

The training centre you'll go to depends on the Corps that you join:

Catterick, Yorkshire: Infantry

Pirbright, Surrey: Army Air Corps, Royal Artillery, Royal Signals, Adjutant General’s Corps, Army Medical Services and Intelligence Corps.

Winchester, Hampshire: Royal Armoured Corps, Royal Engineers, Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

From the above, it appears that you have a choice as to which corp you want to join. However, it is a two way thing - you want to join and the Corp wants you!

4 如果5年拎左bc後退役 行軍經驗返香港可以做咩

There are many different roles in the Army - have a look at the link below and see what suits you best. If you have career planning in mind, you may want to learn a skill trade in the Army.

https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles

According to the latest Armed Forces Pay Review Body report, the Armed Forces 'are experiencing significant problems in both recruiting and retaining sufficient numbers of engineers for both officers and other ranks (ORs)'. (3.22)

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/603494/58422_Armed_Forces_Pay_Web_Accessible.pdf

You may have a better chance to join an engineering corp and gain skills there which can be of some use in civilian life.

如果5年拎左bc後退役 - but do you want to leave after 5 years? If you managed to get promoted to be a lance corporal, you will get £25,524 per year with subsidised food and accommodation. Will you get that much more in Hong Kong?

Another thing is that the British Armed Forces has a very good pension scheme which is similar to the 長俸 system formerly in use in Hong Kong.

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/34250/20121016_afpc_final_agreement.pdf

According to the above, in the 2015 scheme -

1) soldiers do not need to make any contributions for a pension.
2) pension calculations based on your average earnings in the Armed Forces

I can see a former soldier at #95.

I met a friend hold BNO and got a bachelor in UK. After he graduated from Sandhurst UOTC. Military personnel department said he cannot be an Army Officer due to his nationality.

BN(O) passport holders can become soldiers in the British Army. (see example below) It is a different matter with regards to officers, as I would expect additional background checks.

東網透視：憑一支單簧管　香港仔入選御林軍

以香港第一人身份成爲英國御林軍樂手，David憶述，源於幾年前一次聚餐時偶遇英國陸軍音樂總監，對方提起英國御林軍樂隊招募新隊員，他持有英國國民(海外)護照(BNO)身份也可參與招聘考試，故決定一試。軍樂隊考試分兩部分，體能為先，音樂第二。對於當年33歲的他來說，體能測試是極大的挑戰，要10分半鐘內跑完2.4公里，亦要做掌上壓及仰臥起坐，首輪面試因跑步不達標而失敗。但他並沒有放棄，返港苦操3、4個月後再接受挑戰，2013年過關斬將通過所有測試，成功取錄。

身為英皇室的御林軍，薪酬福利令人關注，David則不予透露，僅指薪金水平較香港警察低一些，除普通的醫療和交通福利外，最優厚是住房福利，他與同事在倫敦市中心合住一間800至900平方呎單位，月租只需30英鎊，僅相當於300港元，相信令不少香港青年人羨慕。他現長居英國，還有一年便可入籍，目標是繼續在軍隊攀升，成爲終身職業。
