Roles similar to the American SARC

Hello,

The other day I made a post about specialist sort of signals units and the EWSI role. Since then I've sort of made my choice to go down the route of going down the army route into Royal Sigs and going for EWSI as my trade. However it has been brought to my attention that I should have a second and maybe third choice in case I can't do it for whatever reason.

It was suggested to me by my recruiter that I should maybe look at some sort of medical role because of my experience doing first aid both in cadets and as a volunteer and because I got fairly good grades in biology at school. Anyway to get to the point, I still really want to do more of the sort of green army stuff and get the opportunities to go out on patrols and as part of recce units. A mate of mine had mentioned he knew some yanks who were SARCs attached to their Marine recce battalions but I can't really find an equivalent role that isn't getting onto SF and becoming a patrol medic which isn't exactly something you can pick as a second choice on your initial application.

Any sort of advice on where to go on this would be very much appreciated, thank you very much.
