    Hi Summer, PAX insurance is available via payroll for serving personnel. Also kit insurance is sold via Pax Insurance (part of Aon, one of the big brokers). Also Forces First might be worth a call
  • Just to say he doesn't HAVE to have anything. Insurance in the army is up to the individual.

    If he is involved in EOD then PAX is an essential and will cover him against sustaining serious physical injury. There is optional life cover available as well with PAX but remember the basic cover includes accidental death already, the optional life just covers death by natural causes
