Do you think Irish people will be allowed join the British military after Brexit?

“Irish people” this would include the “Irish people” who are already British citizens, or who can apply for a British passport, and “become” a British citizen that way without being naturalised.That means EVERYONE born in the United Kingdom, which includes Northern Ireland, with at least one parent who was born in the United Kingdom.It also includes people born before 1983 with at least one parent born in either the United Kingdom or the Irish Republic.It does not include anyone born outside the United Kingdom after 1983, unless one of the parents is a British citizen.It can also include any “Irish person” who becomes a British citizen by naturalisation. There are three ways this can be done.Marry someone from an EEA country, get an “indefinite leave to remain” stamp in your passport, and live continuously in the UK for 5 years. Then you can get to be naturalised.Already have an EEA passport, immigrate to the UK, and then apply for permanent residency. After 5 years of residency you can apply to be naturalised. Residency for EEA nationals has now become more difficult to get accepted, presumably because of all the EEA nationals already living in the UK, who now suddenly realise they “wanted to be British”.Get an appropriate 2 or 3 year work visa, get it extended at least once, live continuously in the UK for five years, and then apply for naturalisation.So there are five parts of my answer to your question.Anyone naturalised as a UK citizen can join the British military.Anyone having dual nationality with a Commonwealth country, like Canada, can join right away.Anyone already a legal resident of the UK MAY be able join.A US citizen can join, but can expect to have problems keeping his US citizenship, if he is promoted to “command” rank.Irish Republic nationals can join right away, and have always done so, ever since the Irish Republic declared independence.Irish in the British Armed Forces - WikipediaThe reason I have given more than just “yes” and the above link in my answer, is because I always smell the stink of nationalism and racism, whenever “Irish People” and “British” are used in the same sentence.And because “Brexit” has NOTHING whatsoever to do with it.Irish people have been able to be “British soldiers” just as long as “English” and “Scottish” people have been.The British military has no problem with either “colonials” or “former enemies” taking the “kings shilling”.

Joining Army with illegal parents.?

I have been in the process of joining the Army. The process has currently stopped because my parents are illegal and my recruiter didn't want to input that into a government computer. He said that they can probably be deported. I was just wondering if anyone has enlisted or knows anyone who enlisted with illegal parents. I also would like to know what could be done. Serious Answers ONLY. Thank you all in advance.

Can someone join in his father's service if he passed away on duty in the army? Will he not be excluded from the training center if he fails in any activity?

After father service u r given the opportunity or u can say a post is assigned for the son or same blood relative but that post is defined only after having the eligibility required for the post i.e educational qualification and physical qualification. If you have higher qualifications then u r assigned with higher post if less then lower.So if anyone is not having eligibility for the job then no one can achieve it.

Should you join the Royal Marines at 16?

I didn't join the RM, but joined the RN at 16 so hopefully I can raise a few things to think about based on my experience:I thought of myself as very mature and in most respects I was however my lack of life experience meant that in some instances I didn't have comparable life experience, such as the concept of a boss. Weird as it sounds the closest I had to a boss was a teacher. Also I hadn't enjoyed an adult social life so banter was a new thing, because of this I got very easily offended and had to learn how to tell the difference between banter and actual piss taking.My relationship with my parents. To this day my relationship with my parents has been impacted by joining the Navy at 16. Up until that point all my interactions were based on a parent child relationship. I didn't grow to full maturity under their care. That has always left a bit of a gap. When you join the forces that young you are in effect brought up by your comrades. I was lucky in that a few people took me under their wing but I've seen other young lads go under in this environment. In some respects it can be a bit like the Spartan system!As others have stated if you join at 16 you miss out on further education. I hated school so was glad to have put education behind me, however when I left at age 22 I didn't have any qualifications which could get me a decent job. I ended up doing a lot of unskilled labour before taking the decision to go to college in the evening's.My advice would be to go to college and study a subject or subjects you enjoy for 2 years. Get a part time job for extra spends and to learn about the world of work. Look to join the armed forces at 18. Being more mature will definitely help your focus. You can also use the addition 2 years to improve your fitness as your body isn't fully grown at 16.Hope this helps.

I want to join Infantry in the Army, but a lot of people tell me I shouldn't, because I could get shot. But, I want to be in combat. What should I do?

Fun fact: the majority of infantrymen don’t die in combat. In fact, a lot of them don’t even come home with Purple Hearts.If you join the military, there is a slight chance that you might get shot or blown up, no matter your branch or MOS (Military Occupational Specialty).Becoming an Infantryman, means that when and if you do get shot at, you’ll have some idea of what to do, and you will be surrounded by other soldiers who also know what to do. I went on missions a few times where most of the people were service support (cooks, refuelers, a chaplains assistant, 42As). They were all decent soldiers, had spent plenty of time outside the wire, but there times they made mistakes that could’ve easily got someone killed. Mistakes no infantry soldier would ever make.Example: I was on one mission with some service support guys, (I was gunner on an LMTV) a truck got hit at night and lost a tire. The driver in the following truck turned on his headlights to light up the damaged truck, so “they can see to fix the tire…” In the meantime, there is distant SA fire popping in from both sides of the road. And by golly, we sure as hell could see the tire, and the two soldiers trying to jack up the truck, and the squad leader standing alongside telling them to hurry, and the soldiers pulling security (who could no longer use their NODs in the headlight beams). Thankfully there was no one on the other side who could shoot worth a damn, and all’s well that ends well. But, the likelihood of it ending well decreased by a significant margin, thanks to both a lack of training, and a lack of the combat mindset (the knowledge, deep in your soul, that the other side dearly wants you dead, but there are things you can do about it).Finally, if you are thinking about going 11B, DO IT! If you don’t, you will always wish you had. For the rest of your life. You go another MOS, and you meet an infantryman, even long after you’re out of the military, you’ll find yourself explaining to him about how, “you ALMOST went infantry, but…”, followed by whatever excuse you use.My suggestion is to sign up for three years Active Duty as an 11B - if you don’t like the infantry, re-enlist for another MOS. Best of luck to you!
