Hi,
I'll be completing my Dip in Electronic Engineering in 2013 and want to know what do you all think about me wanting to enlist into Navy. A lot of my friends so far have told me its crazy. But I was seeing the new Navy TV ad and thought it seemed to be a cool life.
Please advise.
There's nothing cool, but nothing terribly bad about signing on with RSN.
It simply depends on how much of the life you like.
you are asking the obvious obviously...
what's shown on TV ad is for show/ act act action only...
really is very a little bit bit glam factor only, but most of the time is filled with many shit work, corks and bulls...
all those like us, who have had been thru and already done with their NS know the big full picture of what're actually going on within this military organisation...
well it is good. Sign on blah, when you like the Sun, Sand and Sea.
Do not be suckered in by the ad.
If you let one single TV ad make your decision towards signing on, then yes, you deserve to be laughed at.
Best I can tell you is to go through BMT first before making any decision to sign on.
No, seriously. Regardless of whatever stories people tell you, you will never know what it is like in the SAF until you actually experience it for yourself.
