@fork_n_spoon If you do a little research, as far back as WW2, recruits for air forces are selected from the better educated lads and lasses. So no I didn't go into the army for that reason. The average reading age of recruits at Harrogate AFC is stated to be about 11-14yrs. Yes I've been to AFC and seen the classrooms. You wouldn't even get considered for the RAF with that reading ability.

@fork_n_spoon No, why would I think that? Note you don't challenge my earlier comment about the educational requirements for joining the army. Maybe because its true and the various academic and historical reports are easy to track down.
