RNR on Youtube and myspace

[forever_a_subby]

Bored at work today and came across these while suring the magic inter thingy. Could do with a national version of this.

Much better than the dross CMR puts out. Reminds me why I joined up in the first place!!!

Only been able to watch the one on MySpace - but this is the sort of thing that will get younger people to join - rather than a couple of people saying how good it is and why their employers should support them.

Being a member of the reserve forces is more than just being a better employee for our civvie employer - we should make a thing of the Adventurus training, It's a knockout, Football @ Eaglet etc. maybe we should use part of our recruitment budget on putting together films like this one and posting on the web.

Should defintely have wider coverage - these would be fantastic for recruitment eveings.

That's very good. I like how they let the pictures speak for themselves without any background dialogue.

BZ! Well after seeing that thing Dunkers spotted, supposedly professionally produced, I know which I'd rather have a DVD of to show off to potential recruits. This was excellent! Ooooh I was impressed!

 

[andym]

wish i wasnt too old to join!!!!!

Andy, the way things are going, they may raise the joining age to 50 and then we can both join up. In the meantime I propose that we set up the RN's first RNR Cyber Unit: HMS Virtual. Any volunteers.. apart from me and Andy? :lol:

If its any consolation, I am aware of an RNR CPO in the CIS specialisation who is at least 56 who last I heard was still in (although to be fair, he joined a long time ago when Noah was still a ship-builder!)
