Does anyone know of any go to countries to secure Military English jobs? I enjoy the discipline of the students and I'm gaining a decent knowledge of army and navy lexis.
I applied for a job quite recently with the Royal Omani Air force, but I dropped out of the interview process due to incredibly drawn-out process which included an interview in London.
I'd rather avoid Iraq or Afghanistan. |

See Defense Language Institute- U.S. Air Force. They provide similar English instruction in the Mid East as well.
Also head to the Saudi forum for discussions on Vinnell, Raytheon, and Chenega - defense contractors that staff instructors for the Saudi National Guard (SANG) and Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF). That said, you'll likely not find posts touting the "discipline" of Saudi military students.
Be aware that some positions target specific nationalities and may require security clearances. |

Thanks for that. Alas, I'm not a Brit or an American. |

Good book that one. I'm currently using it a supplementary resource. |
