| 781707 | 2009-06-12 06:22:00 | Friend of mine tells me that your experience as a rifleman would probably count against you joining the Armed Offender Squad. Two different worlds. As previously mentioned, two or three years as a foot soldier can be a lot of fun but it prepares you for exactly nothing when you leave. Where would your partner live if you were posted to Waiouru - or similar. | Scouse (83) | ||

Two different worlds. how is this ?? :O. well obviously where she is ?? dont you only really change camps for training purposes?? so i would obviously come back. and dont mind being away from each other for a little while but for me to go down and stay ther all year around is a different story. like i said still thinking about it would like this to work for me. |

| 781709 | 2009-06-12 06:54:00 | I guess to join police AOS you would have to unlearn everything about being a good sensible soldier all about snotting the enemy without getting snotted yourself . Then in the police AOS learn how to do dumb things with a firearm like the police do here. I think the AOS in NZ are a bunch of Rambo wannabes who like dressing in black Ninja clothing to look cool. Every time I see them on TV I think w*****s. |

| 781711 | 2009-06-12 07:28:00 | sounds good then cause my partner also wants to go back to uni i believe, and palmy is where most the animal stuff is done :) If you go to Linton after basic youll be fine. But the army will test your loyalty to one another. Jump on in though, you wont regret it. |

Waiouru isnt really used any more, if he goes to be a grunt he'd more than likely end up down south. |
