I have served 7 years within the armoured infantry (1RRW/Royal Welsh ) where I became adept at a number of disciplines such as warrior driver, gunner, & commander to jungle warfare to becoming a sniper. I have served in a total of 3 operational tours of Iraq and led numerous training exercises and expeditions worldwide in a wide variety of environments.

"As an Instructor I pride myself as being a role model for all those under my instruction. Watching a person develop all the skills they require in life to pursuer their chosen career path and watching the increase in confidence and fitness with the added bonus of that person thanking you at the end of the course is the greatest reward. I honestly believe I have the best job out there."
