I often reflect on my time in the military and the parallels between it and software development. To mark the event I thought I'd share a few thoughts on the subject. author: dogle +image: "/uploads/What%20I%20learnt%20about%20software%20development%20from%20the%20RAF.png" --- On the 12th of November 2003 I joined the Royal Air Force and it's safe to say I had no idea what lay in store for me. I left my home in North Wales and headed south to undertake recruit basic training at RAF Halton in Buckinghamshire. Nine years later I left the air force, headed for university to study for a career in software development. Today I'm a lead software developer here at Scott Logic and a lot of things are very different as I'm sure you can imagine, but not everything, there are still a few things I learnt early on in life which are as valuable today in my current role as they ever were. diff --git a/_uploads/What I learnt about software development from the RAF.png b/_uploads/What I learnt about software development from the RAF.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..30c3bee718 Binary files /dev/null and b/_uploads/What I learnt about software development from the RAF.png differ
