That's actually what I'm considering...

*looks over at "Overseas Potential Soldier Application Form" yet to be filled out*

I'm in the Canadian Argylls and seriously looking into joining the "real" Argylls after College. It's either that or Reg Force here... would prefer British Army though.

I was on BMQ/SQ with Sansalone and O'Brien :D

I seriously thought about doing that as well. I still am seriouysly thinking about it. My dad was born in Sheffield so all i have to do is go to the British COnsulate/Embassy and ask for a passport. I have tons of family over there as well so if i did decide on it, it wouldnt be too hard. Maybe i will. If the liberals keep winning the elections i will. And if the NDP ever wins, i definately will.

I don't think you'd need a UK Passport, your Canadian one will suffice as it's a commonwealth country p-)

I am hoping to get Dual Citizenship. So i will need a UK passport to prove citizenship when travelling on it.
