It’s #ReservesDay23 and we thought we’d give you all a quick glimpse of some of the experiences on offer as a Reservist in the British Army. Paid to train, alongside your regular job, we’re always looking for people to join our #team. Why not you..?

We have a very diverse work force, which makes for a team with lots of different skills. LCpl A has two company cars! #FireFighter #ArmyReserve #Recce #LightCav #opportunities #ArmedForcesWeek
