The Pilbara Regiment
List of units that might help ya Spoonman. Yea theres been talk of forming a new regiment for ages....but theres alwayz been talk. The reserves pay was done with a level system. e.g period 0f 11th-19th Pvt Joe bloggs spent 3 days on base (gets x amount of dollars) and 5 days in the bush eating ration packs ( substandard conditions so gets a higher rate).
Officer of Engineers, Is it a rewarding career that I would recommend 2 somone? Well.. like the canadian, the aus army has been downsized substantially over the last 2 decades and periods between promotion increased. Although, for the individual, its still a good career to have. Its a shame we dont have the ready reserve scheme still for the army (1 yr fulltime 4 yrs part-time with paid education and service bonus). But.. the pay is still above average and alot of living costs are paid for. Most the infantry reservists that went to timor were 'ready reservists' serving the last yrs of there part-time commitment so they were already trained up b4 they started their deployment training.
Biggest problem in the adf would be the retention rate and a lack of funds for new weapon systems. Biggest problem in the army is the lack of infantry regiments and often being last on the list for new toys (maintaining the air/sea gap gets priority) whilst having both homeland and os deployment responsibilities. It's great for the young guys who want to make extra money with all the deployments but tough on the guys with families to care for. If your young and want to learn a trade then its worth it for the general rank entry. For officers, after the rank of Major, availability of commands and promotion is low. Personally, I left coz because of the office politics that go on with the lack of advancement options available.
But that seems the trend of the australian, canadian, british and new zealand defence forces unfortunately.
