Hi Everyone
I posted a topic on here a few months ago saying I was considering re-enlisting into the Royal Marines Band Service and wondered if anyone knew whether my pension would mean I couldn't.
Well it turns out that it is all ok and so I can go ahead and apply...however....
It has been 10 years since I left the band service and in that time I have been a student (5 year degree course) and become a mum. I have put on some weight which I am now working very hard to shift but my question to you all is - what is the maximum weight I can be on application?
I want to apply ASAP in order to secure a place on the May or July audition but I know if I go in now and start the application process the chances are I'll be sent for my medical before I am at a weight thats acceptable. It would be handy for me to know what that parameters are so I can work towards.
I realise I am being ambiguous but I hope someone can help.
Thanks all
