Nephew is 18, has a degree and has asked if we can meet up as he is looking to join the RAF. He wants to know about basic/trade training etc.
I'm 17 odd years in and to be honest, not that genned up about basic anymore! (he mentioned that after basic he will be doing IT and his course will be in Wolverhampton). He also wants to join up as an Airman as oppose to our officer type people.
I've advised looking on e-goat and posting questions, i've printed off pay scales and i have arranged a trip to my unit for him - see different trades, check out accommodation/messing etc.
What advise would you offer?!?
