At the moment I am serving with the TA but I am very interested in the RAF reserve, at first I was interested in the RAF reg but this is not possible due to them only recruiting from a local area and I don't live in mainland Britain. But I have been told there might be a possibility with the RAF reserve police as they recruit from all over, so that's the first thing I need to find out.

If you send a PM to member "bitter and twisted" he'll be able to help. He's on TPW so he's best placed to advise.

Thanks for the info Bitter&Twisted I will try giving them a ring, would you know what kind of training they get up to and what kind of role they are used in most.

Training obviously includes the military police skills and drills but they also do a lot of basic infantry type fieldcraft which as a member of the TA I'm sure you would have no problem with.
The sqn hasn't really been utilised a lot mainly because thay have had to wait for everybody to finish their training and 'pass out' as RAF coppers.
In the past they have mainly been used to supplement the regulars, covering policing duties at airshows etc (RIAT at Fairford is usually a fave). However as mentioned in my previous post, they are now ready to deploy, however they are only covering the Air Transport Security dets in Iraq and Afghanistan whilst the regulars covert to BOWMAN.

You then proceeded to call yourselves "rockcops" if I remember. (Bloody wannabe's)

Well if you're looking for some bites mate, quite honestly, do one.
It's not the fight club, it's a Police forum.
I don't post fishing threads in the Regiment forum.
Mods, can we keep an eye on this please? Thanks.

This was supposed to be a bit of light hearted banter, I read the post by "Bitter and Twisted" and it caused me a bit of a smile.
Please tell me if I am incorrect in regards to the fieldcraft statements.
It was supposed to be banter, that is why the smilies are there.
Best regards.

Welcome. The trade specific forums are designed to hekp people who have questions and also for members of the trade to chat about trade issues. We all enjoy a bit of banter but the trade specific forums are not the place for it we need to keep them solely for the purpose they were designed for, as you can imagine at one time this forum came in for quite some abuse and we dont want it descending into that again
Cheers

chiprafp,
Thanks for the reply, I take it then that other trades are not allowed to inject comments in other trade specific forums - Please read some of the comments left by your trade in the rockapes forum, may I say good and truthfull comments, but intermixed with banter about how many gunners you all have nicked. Some other trades have not.
Now I have no problems with that, and have always enjoyed a good laugh with the Feds. (Apart from the time of my arrest(I wasn't guilty, I may add))
but my point about the fieldcraft was a truthful light hearted comment.
I will however take your point.
But, I may add that as I once served on TPW (now thats got some people thinking) and I thought I had a right to comment on it.
Many Thanks
