"2. To join the Royal Air Force you must at all times since birth have been
a citizen of the UK, the Commonwealth or the Republic of Ireland. "


Does that mean no naturalized British citizen can join the RAF?

In the US it is possible for foriegners to join the military services and
that speeds up the process of becoming a naturalized citizen.

Yes foreigners can join, but they can not recieve a commission until they are
US citiizens.

I think military service will speed up the time for citizenship.

Apparently, yes. The wording seems fairly specifically meant to convey
this.
