    This may seem like a pretty stupid question, but I presume you must be under 25 opposed to25 and under to join the infintary? I'm 25 in October so I presume I'm fairly fecked with recruitment for the infintary?

    Unless you're in before your 25th birthday, you're fecked. You could apply for a Cadetship as the max age is 27 (under 28 on 01 Nov of the competition year) to be a commissioned officer or enlist in the NS for general service (max age 26). Once in the NS, you can theoretically apply for transfer to Army but it's not at all guaranteed that you will get permission or end up in an Inf. Bn.

    Hey i was thinking of joining the defence forces when I finish my law degree in two years, I wanted to know, would I still be able to do a masters aswell and perhaps persue further legal training? Any insight appreciated.
