Misleading. To join as a Soldier you have to be 16 years old but you go to Army Foundation College, as a Junior Solider, before starting Standard Entry training when 18. If you're under 18, you need parental consent to join, even though you won't go into a hostile theater. [Link]

Nn, training at AFC(H) lasts either six or twelve months, so most start Phase 2 training long before they are 18 years old. Many will join their regiments whilst under 18, but cannot deploy until their birthday, [Link]
