I'm not having any luck with finding the instructions on wearing the 'hooker boots'. I could find instructions for wearing civilian cold weather boots to/from work and then changing into issued shoes/boots. I am trying to find out whether I can wear the boots during working hours with my skirt...

My information may be out of date as I left PRETC in January but at that time you were told that you could not submit an EWAT application for a certain amount of time after being cleared in. I think it was one month.

PAT in St. Jean was the worst experience ever. You are treated like the lowest life form just for being there regardless of why you are there nor how you behave while there. You bear the scarlet letter "A" so that all may be witness to your disgrace. ("F" for those Francophones out there.) I...

I am in the application process currently. I was told that I would not be given a PT test until I am already at BMQ. I'm not suggesting that I am going to fail but as devil's advocate here, I wasn't given the option of finding out if the training I've declared on my application is actually going...

I spoke to my friend who is the new recruiter and he said to tell you to call the number you have between Tuesday and Friday and leave your contact info on the answering machine and he'll get back to you.

I have a friend who I believe is in a position to help you there. I'll mention your post to him.

There is now a Vancouver branch of SoF for those who may be interested. I know I am.

Thanks for the replies. :D You've been helpful.

I tend towards enjoying gifts that are frivolous and that I would never spend my money on because there are always more important things. With that in mind you could arrange for her to have some sort of service performed for her. You could have molly maids come or arrange for catering or give...
