Each episode tackles common myths head-on, using real stories and humour to show that Army life is more diverse, supportive, and rewarding than many expect.

Whether you're curious about career options, wondering what daily life looks like, or unsure if you’re “Army material” – this series is for you.

In Episode 2, we dive into the career opportunities and qualifications available in the Army, showing how you can shape your own path, gain new skills, and even earn a degree while you serve. You’ll hear from soldiers who’ve taken unexpected routes, embraced professional development, and discovered that the Army offers far more flexibility than most people realise.
