No, I wasn't much good at fixin' up sick animals.
Seriously, my grandfather who served in WWI, my Grandmother who was in the USO, my uncles who served in WWII and Korea and my Dad who was in SE Asia for that mess, advised me not to join. They witnessed a more violent place leaving this world than when the entered it and figured they didn't see much sense in me becoming cannon fodder for some political issue.
So I guess that's a "no" to your question. But I was in some gang fights up in Cayo as a youth and still have the bullet holes in me to prove it.
The BDF doesn't really need outside training. It's a "defense force" and not really into cleansing the World of evil. We have the anglo-american world power for that and bless em' for it.
