The Forum is correct. Surveillance within all three of the services is limited to a select few special groups. SRR and SF have been mentioned as have the Int Corp & RMP. But this type of work is special to those groups and you would have to apply once on the inside and attend special qualification courses. But remember this work is in addition to your normal everyday work as a soldier and you do not do this work all the time.
If you want to work in surveillance then look no further than the security services websites. Mi5/6, who are always recruiting suitable candidates. No they are not the "007" Spys of the world, you only get that when your in and undertaken special selection, but there is a whole world of "Counter Terrorist" work being undertaken by Mi5 and they need staff.
Check it out, if that is your bag. Personally I can't think of a more mind numbing profession than sitting in a hide for hours on end, just waiting for 60 seconds of excitement. (You must get through a lot of books!)
