G'day
Thank you for excepting me
I have recently discovered this forum and decided its the best place to ask questions [I hope]
I'm a 19-year-old bloke from Australia and I plan on trying to join the legion next year. I have tried in the past to join the Aussie army but due to some minor issues I had with the law at 16 I was told I can apply again in 6 years, all my life I've only ever wanted to be a soldier and fully understand that it's extremely hard work and very mentally challenging but for me that is what I want to do I can't fully explain the feeling but its all I can see myself being I need to do hard work I want that 30km hike up a mountain with pack and weapon with mates. I was raised mostly by my grandparents due to the fact my old man was a not nice man when he was drinking and I copped the brunt of it. it did give me an opportunity to get a good worth ethic though as my grandparents owned a farm and I was up every morning working and came home from school to work till past dark. I was lucky enough to hear my pops war stories and how he told me of a friend of his who joined the legion after the war. My main question is will the legion even bother to take me due to the fact that I come from a not financially bad background and a very well-off country as my research has led me to believe they are quite wary of westerners these days due to the desertion rates? hope I haven't asked a question that has been asked a million times before thankyou for your time
