That does sound pretty neat! ... even if it means you don't actually engineer sandwiches. I've tried to do that, it usually involved the kitchen becoming a biohazard for weeks.

In all seriousness, best of luck with it! Have as much fun as you can, to the extent that studying and working can be fun. :P

Well as much as doing nothing but work for a year would be a break from studies, I still have to to do assignments, apparently it includes a 10,000 word dissertation as well so I'm not fully free.

Free military training? Sounds good to me.
