I just left St. Jean and my experience was that we did morning PT maybe 5 times the entire course. There's PSP (Basically gym class) about once a week most weeks. And as commented prior I probably sweated the most during drill....MARK TIME!

Does the caf have info like this posted somewhere (on the internet or some intranet). I'm going to be graduating BMOQ soon and it'd be nice to know what I have in store for the future.

Something I should have mentioned at the beginning is that I'm an Infantry Officer. I don't know if there is a difference between what happens between officers and NCM's?

Thanks! Since there is such a large gap between courses would I be doing OJT? Do I have a choice where I do OJT if that is the case or is it only in Gagetown?

Does anyone know when the next Common Army Phase course is in Gagetown. One of the other candidates in my platoon heard it started Aug. 11. We graduate basic on Aug 8 and so the army people were hoping we'd have at least a week leave after that but it sounds like we won't. Can anyone confirm or...

The Forces filmed this video series a few years ago and uploaded them to Youtube. Check them out..a real insight into basic! Here's the first one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeWNsyZqOm8

I'll be there May 5th. Infantry Officer. I haven't received any information besides that yet so I'm not sure what my serial is.

If you consider a 560 day wait short, then yeah lol. Good luck to everyone else!

Halifax.

I just got the call. Holy crap. I swear in on May 1st and fly out May 3rd. Infantry Officer.

When I wrote my CFAT I was told I scored almost perfect...I did not pass ACS. And I can think of at least a few people from when I went to ACS that said they didn't do amazing on CFAT, who subsequently passed ACS. Also keep in mind that passing ACS and having a competitive ACS score are two...

No it wasn't that, that was the first thing I asked actually.

I just thought I'd share this phone call I made today. I called up and asked for an update as I do about once a month. My file manager asks me to hold on a second like usual while she looks at my file. This time is taking a lot longer than usual however, after about 3-4 minutes she asks me to...

Where did you get that number from (441 for infantry)? You're file manager? My recruiting centre won't tell me anything. I was there yesterday and one person told me when I asked about selection "You know just as much as I do about selection..." FML

Apperently my references are being called (one of them called me after he got a call). Seems a little odd, I've been merit listed for Infantry Officer since May and am not yet Merit Listed for Pilot. So I'm guessing it's pertaining to Inf. since as far as I know my references have never been...
