hey guys,
Doing my research I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the main differences would be in being a member of the British Army (specifically the Royal Irish Regiment) and the Royal Marines. Ive been discussing about joining up with my parents and my Dad suggested the Royal Irish Regiment mainly becuase they’re closer to home I’m guessing. To be fair it would make it far easier to visit home when on leave if I was in the RIR ( I live in Southern Ireland ) than if I was in England with the Marines.
Anybody able to tell me the main differences between Army life and the Marine life ? I don’t want to make any decisions based solely on geography
Cheers
