    REMUSTERING/NCM-SEP

    I still haven't received word on my application. I did however just accept an offer from Camosun for a seat in the 2012 program! I was 11'th on the waitlist and managed to get in. If you are still waiting for a call there is a pretty good chance it may come sooner rather than later. The...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    I don't remember there being any calculus on the test. I wrote it when I was in gr. 11 and joining the reserves and still managed to qualify for everything. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Review long division and fractions. If there was calculus on it then there are certainly tricks you...

    REMUSTERING/NCM-SEP

    I handed my application in this morning. I hope to be on a January BMQ. Good luck to everyone still slogging away at Camosun!

    Perception of a quitter

    It is interesting that you say that because I have been under the impression that a 4c release poses no problems if you decide to re-enlist. I personally completed my reserve BMQ before 4c'ing and plan on enlisting this fall under the NCM-SEP program now that I have finished school. What release...

    Search for New Canadian Ranger Rifle (merged)

    I would be willing to pay a premium if I knew I was getting 'original' quality. I have done the bolt action rifle search in the surplus market and it would be a godsend if I could just buy an old design but newly manufactured.

    What happened to all our Hornets?

    You know if the Left was elected, well, they would replace fusion with solar panels!

    Paul Gross to produce a film about Afghanistan

    "Gross will play the role of the intelligence officer" I really appreciate the fact he makes movies featuring our Forces. I just wish he would stop starring in them.

    How scientifically literate are you? Take the quiz

    Thanks! That is kind of you to say. The two innermost planets (Mercury and Venus) don't have moons because their gravity wells can't retain any satellites so close to the sun.

    How scientifically literate are you? Take the quiz

    You answered 46 of 50 questions correctly for a total score of 92%. Hurrah! Of course, currently taking science in college full time may have influenced the results somewhat  :nod: -Edited for spelling. Ironic.

    Hundreds of soldiers parachute over Britain in massive training exercise

    Pastonia and Dragonia Sounds like the Falklands to me.
  13. Q

    WW3 en route?

    You would be hard pressed to convince the West of starting another ground war in the Middle East over civil rights. If WW3 starts in the next few years, I think it will be because of some crisis in the EU. If history has taught us anything, you can't have a world war without Europe and North...
