I do not see the urgency, young Jedi.

QPs,
since I didn't want to enter phony information in the contact form, I decided to give the Special Forces Recruiting Team Europe a call on their civilian number. After three calls I managed to get someone on the line, though I was told that the person "who would know that kind of stuff" wasn't there at the moment. I was also made aware of the fact that they are the recruiting station for active members of the military.
Should I call back, or adjust fire and try somewhere else?

ahh how time looks to a 19 year old.
"3 MONTHS? That's FOREVER"
I was 19 once . . . a long, long, long time ago. 
Pace yourself Padiwan, a 20-30 year career is a long time.

Sir,
thank you for addressing my post. I believe you misread it, however. To clarify, I am not the OP. I am also not 19, but rather 23 - not that it would make much of a difference to the members of this board. I am not sure what relevance the "3 months" referenced in your post has to my question, but your comment about pacing oneself is definitely well taken. Young people like us have a habit of putting the horse before the cart. In that respect, this site has definitely done well in the way of stressing the importance of the 25m target, hence my question regarding whom to contact with my question about initial entry into the army.

From a purely logical standpoint...if you're looking to get information about initial entry...your best bet is with a recruiter.
