I was hoping to find who I would need to contact, as a budding photographer, in order to ask permission to accompany allied troops out on to the front line in order to record their work (I know a lot has to be censored).
Would a regimental Officer be best? Base commander...who?
Thanks!

Most militaries have a public affairs or a section that works with the media. I would start there at the highest level working down to base level.

Dont ask the military, they are doing a hard and dangerous job, and photographers are a pain to them. Its really a political thing. Start with your local MP, they will point you in the right direction. Good luck. Wear brown underpants!

places like military starting place college Harrogate for 16-17.9 year olds, Welbeck Defence sixth type college on your A-degrees, Royal military Academy Sandhurst for after A-degrees/Uni, etc. the element is is that ours are not like those interior the US, once you graduate from them, you want to serve interior the military. it really is, with the exception of Welbeck. At Welbeck, you could pass in as a private student and characteristic no military criminal responsibility. yet you should pay the completed practise prices (round £7k in line with time period).

You would need to contact the Ministry of Defence:
MOD Main Building
Whitehall
London SW1

If you did get permission to do this work, you must know that you have to sign a declaration for the MOD which absolves them from any responsibility for you in a theatre of war. In other words...your on your own.

I would suggest that the military themselves are not the ones to contact. The MoD would be the ones who would grant permission.

WRITE TO MOD AS ADDRESS ALREADY GIVEN BY OTHERS.
I VERY MUCH DOUBT THAT YOU WILL BE ACCEPTED AS YOU WILL BE SEEN AS A WAR TOURIST WHO WOULD PUT OUR BOYS LIVES AT RISK SO THAT YOU CAN GET YOUR THRILL.
IF YOU ARE SERIOUS THEN APPROACH A NATIONAL NEWSPAPER AND SEE WHAT THE CRACK IS OR IF YOU REALLY DO HAVE A DEATH WISH THEN GO TO IRAQ AS FREELANCE - HIRE BODY GUARDS - TAKE PICURES OF PEOPLE SUFFERING AND SELL THEM TO ARAB PAPERS AS EURO PAPERS WILL NOT PRINT THEM .
