Another great video presentation. One thing most of my mates in the regular army say and I would say the same having been a reservist. Is once you’ve got through your training is life gets better. You will be under pressure on basic training or Phase 1. But the army is just getting the best out of you. These are great videos.
Thank you for this puts one’s mind at rest.my youngest is now in the Coldstream guards he started at 16 and he loves the job
You covered everything I had to ask! Thankyou, keep up the great content it’s really helpful and informative
Amazing thank you
Thanks great video. Looking good for our youngest grandson then as he is already enjoying phase 1
Great insight. Thanks for sharing
Thank you
Great video Craig again thanks mate 👍
Thanks mate 👍
Wish I had access to this kind of info back when I joined the Army 6 Oct 1991!
Great video, really helpful 👊👍
Thank you
Great videos love them 😃😃😃😃
Thank you 🙏🙏
Thanks for all ur information,,, my son off to Harrogate in September,,, all very exciting
Best of luck to him
luv the vid and keep up the work and respects to u and the armed forces
Thank you
@@CombatReadyHQ ne problem luv the army and everthing they do for the country
Love this video 🤘 are you going to do a video on the RLC job role and Royal Signals role ?
Thank you, yes I will be doing videos on both of them at some point
I just want to thank you for all your videos. I'm going to AFC Harrogate in 25 days. I'm on Intake 67 short course.
I'm going in the REME as a vehicle mechanic. 🙂
How is AFC Harrogate????
How’s it been, I’ve been considering this
@@jakebrennan174I left Harrogate and rejoined at 18. I did 14 weeks in Pirbright. I can honestly recommend it. You get days where you hate life. And wanna leave but it’s worth it
Still at phase 2 atm and everything you've said pretty much sums up how it is here, sometimes it doesn't even feel like work its brill , best part about being an armourer at the moment 🤣
Haha that's really good to hear mate, glad all is going well
What is phase two like as an armourer? I’m on week 9 of phase one, going in as an armourer too
Craig we all know your a secret SAS Captain in disguise as a Royal lancer.
Ssshhhh
Great video will be joining soon for my phase one training from GHANA 🇬🇭 JUST WAITING FOR MY DATE
Good luck and thank you
@Richard Adane. Good luck. What regiment are you joining. 🇬🇭 and proud
@@KB77mp bro pls can I have ur IG name or ur WhatsApp number
Richard please can I have ur number let link up
Great video. I'm hoping to go 32nd but also would like to be closer to home
Thanks mate 🤙 go for what's right. I joined to travel
@@CombatReadyHQ to travel be good and definitely one of the perks I guess with the military. But I'm definitely wanting to join 32nd to fly the drones and many other experiences like p-company if I can and fit enough for it
Love the comment about "last minute dicking". I remember with great fondness our old Roman friend, Dicktimus Onceagainimus.
Brilliant
My fave bit at the end of each day is someone will always say "you got a thirst" and you're still at the pub on closing
Im looking forward to joining the Army later this year. Im currently in my application process... im joining the Tank regiment.
You going to AFC
@@globalnews6748 no straight into adult training this november hopefully
Thanks for the video! How often on average do soldiers move around to live in different locations/barracks? (not deployment) Everything online says every 3-4 years but all the information seems to be about the USA army. My OH has joined up so I'm wondering what life will be like for our little boy and if we'll end up moving a lot as I don't really know anything!
Did you find out?
God bless you all
I love the content of all your video's man.. I want to become a british solider I'm scared thou.. I'm having doubt that I'm going to fail and I don't want to fail I want to be a part of the british...I want someone who I can speak with to let me know what happens when you first step true the recruiters office
Mate it's not that hard, you just have to do what you're told. Thats it. Turn up half fit, eager to learn and a have a sense of urgency. No one is going to tell you what to expect, there's enough videos and literature out there for you to read. Don't be that guy that bumps into a squaddie when they're 40 and they've been doing a job they hate for 20 years and they're like 'I almost joined the army, it's one of my biggest regrets.' I've bumped into loads of them. Just do it, don't be a pussy.
Your army career doesn't really start until you pass out and go to your unit, after that the world is your oyster. The army is as good as you want it to be. You can just chill out get a job in the stores and serve your time out there or you can grab every opportunity and go on every course available get yourself promoted then it's just a matter of progressing. I was in the Scots guards in the 80,s and when I passed out I went straight to Northern Ireland, after that tour I went on public duties for a year which was totally different. I was only in 6 years but I went on every course that came up, photography, medics, gunnery, driving, signals. It's a lot different in battalion than down the depot and a big shock after being rushed around in basic training. In the guards you usually go straight to a rifle company after basic but I was lucky I got sent to mortars in support company. My advice to anyone joining now is stick at it, life really starts after the basic training. 😊
This probably is a stupid question but do you have to learn to ride a horse to join the household cavalry? I ask this just because you've got the Royal Horse Artillery but you don't actually have to ride a horse it's just the historic name
Good video mate! Just wondering after Phase 1, do you have a couple weeks at home before you start Phase 2? Cheers again.
Yes Normally there is a week or two leave period before phase two but i can't promise that it'll always happen
Did you ever meet Jason Ong in the Guards PARA unit? I was in training with him 20 plt 😅
Can you give some insight on military police role in the army? Soldier role
Here you go

Great video👍🏻 do you know if there’s any extra sports you can do whilst at our right? Like boxing or football?
I will do a video on this but yes the army love sport
@@CombatReadyHQ brilliant
How long are your deployments usually?
Do you get your own room or is it shared?
What is the maximum age to join the army for a bachelor's degree in computer science and what rank will I get?
Do you know anything about the day to day as a chef?
Hi Craig, is that the army recruitment still normally on going? Or suspended because of Covid-19?
It is still going during covid I've been going through the process and going for phase 1 this Sunday
I looked into the living quarters for non marryed couples and the reqiments was harsh i.e you have to be in army few years befor you can apply and need few years of proof of living together and paying the bills togeather
Do the 3 years before you can sign off start in training or when you get to your unit?
From your enlistment date
can you have/buy additional snacks/food if you wanted to bulk up and eat more?
Also, do you train with both men and women or is it strictly separated, thanks for sharing
They have fridges in the rooms so you can buy your own food.
great vid i start pirbrite on june 6th cant wait , when do they make you do your drivers license
Nice one good luck, and that's normally in phase two
@George Can i just ask when you did your assessment centre, just because i’m still waiting for my Phase one start date for Pirbright.
@@Jack-pv3rx what role are you going for mate i had to change my role from a vehicle mechanic to a cyber engineer due to waiting times being too long (up to a year wait) i went to assessment on February the 3rd
@@george2520 Joining Siganls,Electronic warfare & i did my assessment centre mid February.Just making sure i haven’t been skipped ahaha,everything seems back logged atm
@@Jack-pv3rx id recommend getting hold of your recruitment office and asking them for and update
Hi
I want to join the army, my application got accepted and in due course will go fotward with the stages to come. Im aware your giving housing when you're in the army, but what happens if you've completed 10 years of service, for example. Where do we go ? Is it a case of saving up when your serving, the buying a property after you leave etc ? Ive heard how a lot of people end up on the streets once they've left. Could you please advise me on this ? Thank you for your service
You could always stop at ur family house
Hey Craig how can I get thrown to u? I would love to ask you some questions please let me know
Day to day life as a rlc driver ?
So how does holidays work? You can only apply for one that’s in the school holidays? I.e Easter, Christmas? Say it’s one of my kids birthdays, could I book a holiday for one day specifically, say in May or March?
How old r u and the kids
@@KyieshaPlayz I’m 24 and kids are 3 and 1 but by the time I start hoping for June next year, I’ll be 25 and the kids I’ll be 2 and 4
How do you book courses?
In regards to having your own car am I allowed to park on-site or how does that work ?
Once you have been allocated a pass, park on-site but only in areas set aside for that purpose. At least, that's the way it used to be and I can't imagine it would have changed.
Hi Craig. I have a question. What the accommodation like in basic training? Is it single block accommodation or shared?
shared at phase 1
@@charlottemae8755how about phase 2
hi mate would you recommend the army air corps?
Yes for sure mate they have some decent jobs
You should do a video on tattoos
Anything that won't appear on a passport photo or isn't racist or discriminate is fine
@@Charlie_Gyle thanks men
Is all this for regulars?
Please need your help want to join the army from overseas
Accommodation in the Army is terrible unless you’ve got SLAM...which after 15 yrs they still haven’t managed to fully roll out
Do you get your own room or is it shared?
One question I have is do you get too use your phone when your not training or working for example free time or do you not have your mobile phone at all?
Yes in free time such as evenings and weekends you will have access to your phone when not working
@@CombatReadyHQ alright that's cool! I'm thinking about joining the army I'd love to be an infantry soldier but do you have any tips I could be working on now as I have a couple of years until I'm old enough. I guess what I'm trying to say is, is there anything you'd advise me to work on now before I start training in 2 years?
@@OutOfControl101 get out running and training in the gym build the foundations now
@@CombatReadyHQ okay I will do! Thank you!!
Good video got a question thou what about pension how does that work and is it any good ?
I can look to do a video on this but I still need to learn more about it, but it is one of the best pensions out there, possibly the best for public sector
@@CombatReadyHQ brilliant mate thanks I'm doing my selection training soon I'm joining the royal engineers
do u have to pay bills for accommodation
Only when in married quarters, not when living in the block you just pay a one off payment.
how different would this be to the raf
Hi did u get any extra info to how it’s different or ??

what regiment are you in?
Household Calvary Regiment mate
@@CombatReadyHQ nice i want to join royal lancers
What are the rules for pets in accommodation?
Depends on the unit and garrison but it can be possible
Do you mean in Married Quarters? Possibly. If you mean in the singles barrack block then don't be silly. Either it will make mess or noise that will get you in deep shit, or someone will come in pissed one night and eat it. What do you think will happen when you're on deployment or excercise? Do you think the Guard Commander might pop in to feed it every day?
@@kevinwhitmill2599 Of course I mean married quarters, probably should’ve been more specific.
@@harryhughes3740 yes married quarters is gone you just need to let them know when you fill the application in what pets you have and it will be fine, it is possible in the block but just depends on the garrison rules and what pet it is
@@CombatReadyHQ Thanks Craig, really useful info!
i am a single mother currently going through the application process how will i be able to go to phase 1&2 training i dont have family to look after them i do have some personal issues with them but im just trying to find out how i will be able to work around them
Maybe speak to your careers advisor, quite a difficult unique circumstance to answer over RUclips.
Shouldn't have had a kid then!
Plus the royals are outed as n0nc35
you wish you were back in training .
It's urgent I just found out that Russia will be taking over England
Can you lose the cheesy baby music!
Don't do it guys, get an education and a proper career. Be a thinker not a stinker!!
