I want to encourage my step daughter to join the army. Okay she is only 13, but she has always wanted to be a surgeon. Along with track cycling, national youth choir, playing several musical instruments and being trilingual, we both feel that she can go a long way academically and hopefully apply at officer level.
Studying medicine and surgery in the armed forces would also expose her to real conflict circumstances, okay it would be a tough life, but the experience would, I believe be priceless.
I have had two fathers go through military careers, one royal engineer one royal marine, both decorated during active service.
