Does anyone have any dates for battleschool in 2015? (RCR & PPCLI)

Are you kidding me? Oh how BMQ has changed.... :facepalm:

Definitely using this as a platform to gain votes ahead of next years election, surprise surprise.

I agree, I have also found that self defense training like Krav Maga also stresses techniques on how to avoid fighting first. I can't speak to other martial arts but I can imagine that they would teach the same values. "Train as you would fight" as they say. If you don't put in that 100% then...

Thank you, I am aware I posted in a thread that was a bit older. Hence my explanation: I also posted in this thread because I share a similar interest on the subject of this thread, please stay on topic. Feel free to start a new thread on the subject of how many fights people have been in.

I don't see how this question relates to the OP

Not sure if you are still researching or not but perhaps someone else has a similar interest in the original question. I have a couple years experience in Krav Maga, it is a great workout and I find it is very realistic when adapting it to "real world" scenarios. It is great for self defence and...

Your position on the merit list is decided from all four aspects of the process (CFAT, Medical, TSD and interview), as well as the details in your file itself. No one here can tell you how your personal situation has directly affected your position on the merit list. I suggest you wait and see...

I was contacted by my local RC today, I was told my file would be closed and I would have to wait 1 year because I started a debt management program. I could re apply online once the year was up. This concerns me because I originally joined on 2008 with debt, I did not start a DMP but showed my...

Thanks for the info, I was looking more for Infantry (NCM) selection but I clearly did not specify. I am assuming the selection dates for officer and NCM are different.

Thought I would start a topic on any upcoming information about Infantry selection dates for this year, as well as any forecast in respect to the number of available spots.
