if your face fits......
Serving with a couple of aussies in a forlorn and sandy place at present, I expressed an interest in Lateral Transfer as I am nearing an option point and was told that it is trade and experience specific. Spoke direct with the recruiters in Canberra and they are still recruiting but it is very specific. At present they are also after operations officers as well as ATC and fighter controllers - or whatever they call themselves at the moment (ABM's - All About Me's)
Mrs SLC and I are considering it and for the golden handshake, new life etc it makes alot of sense for a minimum ROS of 5 yrs and Aussie citizenship without having to commit a crime and be sent on a prison ship............
My suggestion is press to test, keep pressing and see what happens. Without Harrier and with just Afghanistan life is going to be a little torrid on the CAS train to Glasgow.

Recruitment has died down due to economic slowdown and locals coming back/not leaving all caused by Labo(u)r government, bring back Johnny!
Coming up to 7 years in the colonies and getting well looked after, grass is not greener just different grass. Specific trades will always be looked at in all arms of the ADF. They got a little burnt with too many AD Fcs and no aircraft yet but it is coming - honest. Any help I can be just Pm.

If you want to share!
What was you previous experience and what are you currently doing (Base/SQN)? What kind of future are you willing to reach in the RAAF or planning one day maybe to get out and join a similar job in an other enviroment?

Questions
can anyone offer me help. I'm in the us navy and looking at the lateral recruitment to the ADF. Need some help in getting in touch with them. Already been to the website but was hoping to call them or talk to a recruiter directly. Currently an e5 air traffic controller. Any help would be appreciated.
