Welcome to War and Tactics!    War and Tactics Forum is currently undergoing some modifications that might disable features you are used to. This is unabvoidable as we have to update the forum engine to a new structure that is incompatible with many of the features we had used so far. The good news: WaT will be more secure and stable, and most of the features we uninstalled will be a natural part of the new structure anyway. For the rest we will be looking for solutions.

yo Mike,

welkom/welcome..damn...mixing English and Dutch...

English: welcome aboard
Dutch: goed om nog ne Vlaming erbij te hebben! Stoffel is Nederlander maar geboren in Sint-Niklaas dus hij mocht er ook bij...ik ben Koen, 39, en ex-luchtmacht onderofficier

English: what are your military plans? the Belgian forces are getting very limited in the future....there won't be many options left....lots of bases are getting closed...
Dutch:wat wil je doen in het leger? de huidige CEO wil serieus knippen in het leger...

Dank u Koen.

Dutch: Het plan was om bij de medische dienst te gaan, zoals m'n vader. Maar die raad dat ook af, gezien de huidige situatie. Mss zoek ik mijn heil wel in het buitenland. Met mijn diploma verpleegkunde dat ik binnen 3jaar heb (met geluk) kan ik in heel wat landen "vlug" binnen. Ondertussen ben ik aan het kijken naar Amerika of Australie. Maar het kan evengoed zijn dat ik mijn jeugddromen opberg en er vrede mee neem dat het niet zal uitkomen.

English: Joining the belgian forces isnt going to happen i think Smiley so i'm looking to other countries.

With a nursing degree and going for medical I think you can get in whatever army as young as you are, ever thought of the French Legion if Belgium is out of question?

From what I heard you might find yourself family there.

I looked into the legion, but the life style is too much for me. i want dicipline and real army stuff, but also still be able to go home and contact my family and all. and i want to use my nursing degree, wich i would not get to do in the legion. I am looking into the USA or Australia, but its pretty far from here so i'll see how that goes. Maybe The netherlands are another option, i always liked their Korps Mariniers (marine corps)

I applied for the Dutch forces before this summer but was rejected.
Not of my age, 39, but because I didn't have the Dutch nationality. So in your case Mike you should have a double nationality.
