    What Testing Decides Top Athlete in BMQ?

    When I went through BMQ earlier this year Top Athlete was decided by your CF Express test results. Sorry, I can't tell you how they decide how much each test is rated against the others.

    I damaged DND vehicle, need advice

    Just a thought.....but if drivers are charged the whole cost of repairs for genuine accidents (and I think the idiots should pay for wanton destruction due to pure negligence, by the way) who would ever volunteer to drive a vehicle. If the CF doesn't take a considered view and 'effectively'...

    I need some encouragement... or advice... Or both!

    My story is similar to yours. Left school at 16 because I knew all I needed to and wanted to earn money. Thought I was much smarter than I was. Drifted through a vast array of jobs with no career structure and spent the last 5 years in manual labour. I'm a new Canadian and had the honour of...

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    Same here as with MMSS - unfortunately we all might need to hang on to what we have right now! Usually there's a facebook page for each BMQ so people can join once they know they're in. Hopefully we'll all be signing up for that very soon. Good luck all.
