RAO receives two batches of young officers

Muscat: Acting in coordination with the Ministry of Labour, the Royal Army of Oman (RAO) today received two batches of officer cadets nominated for military training. The step was in pursuance of efforts to employ Omani youth and help them join the fields of national duty.

This followed the candidates’ passing the stages of acceptance, evaluation, tests, medical and physical examinations. Those who meet the conditions will undergo the basic military training programme in preparation for joining the RAO.

The RAO harnessed its human, administrative and health expertise and capabilities—including transport requirements and the appropriate environment—to expedite practical procedures for accelerating the process whereby the two batches join the military service, within the framework of the Sultan’s Armed Forces (SAF) plans that aim to make optimum use of the potential of qualified national competencies, support their wings and the departments of the Ministry of Defence, in serving dear Oman and its beloved leader.
