Can I join the Russian Armed Forces?

Could i join any part of the British Armed Forces with my criminal record?

• I have a criminal record, and i always have been interested in joning the Forces, but i have quite a bad previous history. I am currently 19, 20 next week. My criminal convictions are ; common assault 2 times in 2006, Theft in 2005, Common assault in 2007, and drink driving at the start of 2009... I feel i have learned from my mistakes and want to make a fresh start and to also prove to myself that i have grown up , and i feel the armed forces would suit me great and would be ideal.

• Answer:

  It is good of you to try to make up for your past. But, your best bet is to talk to a recruiter.. They don't usually like that kind of thing in the Military. Go to a recruiter and ask him to be sure.
