That's exactly correct. They had no problem wanting me to sign on to the regular forces.
And for the record as a Canuck getting into the British Regulars is pretty easy. The rules don't apply as strictly when you want to serve king and country. Heck they even give you a pension after 2 years. Commonwealth has its advantages. While nowhere near the same as they were 50-100 years ago there are still perks to the whole deal.
I'm more investigating at this point.
