Transfer

I leave for BMQ for infantry in a few weeks and I was just wondering how often do infantry soldiers get moved from one posting to another once trained? Is it mainly via request or does it happen every fairly frequently?

Realistically for the Infantry until you reach the rank of MCpl there is not a lot of postings. Once you have leadership training and can be employed as an instructor you are fairly safe to stay in a BN.  That is not to say you can't get posted as a Cpl, but those postings are usually reserved for senior Cpls (and almost always people that want to be posted).
