In this episode, I break down what’s actually going on with Infantry recruitment in the Australian Army — yep, it’s currently on pause, even though there are still positions to fill. I unpack why Infantry is considered a lower priority right now, and what this means if your ultimate goal is to go Special Forces. Should you wait 6–12 months for Infantry to open up, or join another corps and get started now? I give you my take, based on experience, and the pros and cons of both options. Plus, I’ll cover how you can still get physically and mentally conditioned for selection, even if you go in via a different role, and whether bringing other skill sets to SF might actually give you an edge. If you’re serious about SF and want clarity on your best path forward, make sure you give this one a listen.
