wow, I remember worrying about the little things like this. bring an alarm clock. take care of yourself then, look after the others.

Typical CTV or CBC left leaning article. I am amazed that they didnt give a carbon count on the fuel burned by the jets also.

I am a reservist Sig Officer  who is half way through CAP at the young age of 47. My career objectives are probably not the same as yours but, I would say you are not to old. - Physically, trust me, if i can do it, most others can,, just got to be determined - Pension, you will be retired by...

I finished BMQ and BMOQ (reservists do them as two courses) at 45 I did half my phase 2 training at Gagetown at 46 On BMQ, there was another guy who was 49 (an ex reg forces guy who came back as a reservist). We fit in fine. There was the odd joke but, I usually felt like part of the crowd...

I also would like any info I can get regarding the last two weeks of BMOQ. All I have been told is "you will be told when you need to know" but my civilian employer isn't as understanding as I should be and my wife even less so.

The Canadian Forces latest and oldest "Officer Cadet" here. Did my enrollment tonight (thank you very much). Very proud and looking forward to (reserve) BMOQ starting this month in Ottawa. Cheers, Class-Senior.

Anyone else doing weekend BMQ (BMOQ part 1) in Ottawa this Sept?

What is the "School of Cool" and "BMOQ-L" ? I think my training is - BMQ - BMOQ - CAP - Trades training ?
