hello mate
im an instructor at gibralter barracks (minley) i teach phase 2 royal engineers and would advise anyone to join, especially with the unemployment rate like it is.
Im an electrician by trade and while the course isnt easy i enjoyed every day of it and have a trade for life.
Also assuming that you use this site because you hunt, at gibralter barracks we have minley shoot. For 200 quid you get 12 months of pheasant, pigeon, duck and dear stalking as well as vermin.
if you want any more info on the engineers let me know
all the best
Danny
