im looking for a career within the armed forces and by career i mean something like a trade i can continue on into civvy street. i also want to see and experience the action of being in the military i have done alot of research and have decided to join either the RAF regt or the royal navy.

The RAF Regt have the soldiering skills i am looking for and also offer some skills to be carried on in future life.

The Royal Navy have the trades and careers i am looking for but im not sure if they actually patrol or even get to go on land except shore leave.

undecided but any info or advice would be much appreciated.
when i say action i don't mean being in a firefight but the experience of being on a tour and living in different conditions to barracks and all the experiences that come with it. i should have made it clear that i'm not looking for a fight or glory life is not a video game.
