However, he found that being settled in one place was not for him, so at the age of sixteen he joined the British army and again traveled the world as a dog trainer, training Army war dogs.One of the countries he served in as a soldier was the troubled land of Northern Ireland, with which he fell in love. He left the Army to join the Royal Ulster Constabulary, where he served for fourteen years before being medically discharged for injuries received in a terrorist incident.
