Not that I did a great deal of it when in the military (before Plans123 jumps in
) you will find that most companies
prefer ex-mil because they're familiar with the basic conditions, but they will provide their own pre-deployment training of a fashion that has a paramilitary flavour (what a landmine looks like, what to do if an air raid warning sounds etc). Health and safety don't you know.
A lot of the type of work you're talking about is well paid, generally not dangerous other than on the way in/out and except for the occasional freak attack like was seen at Bastion recently, but otherwise fairly groundhog dull with a monotonous routine. So forget any images of magging-up with Ross Kemp and think more of working and sleeping in a variety of portacabins with little more than a/c.
First time it will be an experience; third time you'll have bought all the fob penlights from the BX and will be able to predict the menu at the DFAC (eating place) days in advance. If you've got a mentality that can cope with cabin fever/groundhog day - and some people can - waiting for the bucks at the end of the month then it can be lucrative, but it's more of an open prison scenario than a Michael Palin adventure.
Not that any of this answers your question.
I'll try and find some names.
