In this A01 I am going to describe briefly the range of jobs available in two contrasting public services and then outline the main roles and responsibilities of two from each service. And I am doing my A01 on the British army and the police force. This is a list of all of jobs available for both public services.

In the British army the jobs I am going to explain in detail are infantry and bomb squad. And in the police force I will look at a dog handler and the bomb squad in detail. Army- infantry The British army infantry forms a highly flexible organization, taking on a variety of roles including armored, mechanized, air assault and lighting and technical support. The British Army is the land warfare branch of Her Majesty's Armed Forces in the

United Kingdom and in 2001 the United Kingdom, as a part of Operation Enduring Freedom with the United States, invaded Afghanistan to topple the Taliban. Approximately 9,000 British troops (including marines, airmen and sailors) are currently in Afghanistan, making it the second largest force after the US. Around 500 extra British troops were deployed in 2009, bringing the British Army deployment total up to 9,500 (excluding Special Forces). Army bomb squad Many shells, bombs and munitions fail to explode; leaving them around the battlefield after the fighting is over. Bomb Disposal Engineers are expert in the vital task of safely disposing of unexploded ordnance. In peacetime, they provide the essential expertise necessary to clear areas, often to permit the civilian population to return home. They are also expert in counter-terrorist search - uncovering illegal arms and explosives EOD Bomb Disposal Engineers are experts in the safe disposal of unexploded ordnance, such as mines, shells and bombs that may be left on the battlefield after a conflict. In peacetime, they apply their expertise to clear and make safe civilian areas. Before you can become a Bomb Disposal specialist, you must first complete soldier or officer training, Combat Engineer training and then trade training (soldiers only). You should then ask to specialize in Bomb Disposal Once selected for EOD Bomb Disposal training, you will undertake a four-week course, which will teach you to recognize various types of bomb and ammunition make them safe and then dispose of them.
