Look after yourself AbdullahD and push yourself, but stay within the limits of health. I had a cold that developed into bronchitis, but I still did hard workouts--and it turned into walking pneumonia because I was pushing my lungs too hard.  Avoid that stress fracture by giving yourself time to...

I too have been following along Deskjockey 43!  Having worked the civilian side of the bureaucracy for about 7 years, I am now experiencing it again on the military side, and so its good to hear from others that share my frustration with the fuzzy wall.  I really hope that you get through all...

Finally was merit listed.  My recruiting centre said I should be good for the December 12th selection board and that I should hopefully be able to go in January or February 2017 for BMOQ.

Yes, Sgt. Lean posted in another forum that Jan 20, 2017 is almost filled and they are starting to fill February 20ths now.  I wonder if there will be one in March, or if I have to wait for another fiscal year to start.  Oh well, keep waiting, working, and working out :).  I want to serve more...

Good afternoon, Does anyone know when the 2017 BMOQs are?  I know there is one January 16th, 2017.  Have the dates for February to April 2017 been released yet? Thanks for any assistance provided :)

Thanks for the advice, Guy.  Though it will be a bit yet in regards to Cornwall, I think by that point she'll be good for just coming on weekends (we live in Belleville, so it's only a three hour drive away).    Take care!

Good morning, I'm just waiting to be merit listed and was reading through some of the topics in this section and just have a few general questions.  When I started my application process back in July 2015, I was divorced and single.  Since then, I've gotten into a serious relationship, and my...

Thanks Sgt. Lean.  I am a DEO applicant, so that (hopefully) bodes well.

Thank-you for the response Sgt. Lean.  Do you know if the following trades are still open for the year? 1) AEC 2) MARS 3) Intelligence Officer Thanks very much, Brian

Hello, I googled army.ca merit listing timings and came up with a lot of information about the timings between being put on the merit list and getting a call for the job offer.  However, my question is basically one step before this stage. I called into Kingston yesterday and was told that my...

I was out for my morning run on the south side of CFB Trenton and watched the latest batch of ACS candidates enter for training.  Good luck everyone who is testing today/tomorrow :)

Grew up in Trenton.  Most of my friends parents were Air Force.  I've wanted to serve in the military since I was a kid.  Went to university with the plan of going DEO afterwards.  However, in university, I met my now ex-wife.  She had no desire to be married to a military man, so I went the...

Sadly, this type of attitude is becoming more prevalent in universities across Canada--instead of bringing everyone together, everyone is being classified according to groups.  I had the privilege of teaching part time at a university in Ontario while working at my job, but couldn't handle the...

Yes, I am.  I was never given the forms though, and I did my AEC testing two months ago.  I would have had this done if I had had the forms.  Oh well.  I'll pick them up next Wednesday and get it all squared away :)

Thanks DAA!  Yes, the Cpl. at CFRC Kingston I talked to was surprised the paperwork wasn't given to me before I did my ASC course.  I'm off to Kingston next week to pick up the paperwork, then off to see my doctor to get everything done.  I was so excited to have hit the end of the long...

Does anyone have any idea how long it takes to get an Air Factor?  I received a call from my CFRC telling me that I passed my medical, except the med tech didn't give me the paperwork to complete my Air Factor back in March when I did the medical.  I have to go next week to get the paperwork and...

Good morrow Loachman, Thy post has brought great mirth upon thy spirit this fair morn.  I thank thee for the laugh!

Had the day off yesterday so stopped into the Kingston CFRC office to check on my file.  I've cleared the medical, just waiting on the final stages of my reliability screening to be done, then I can be merit listed!  Hoping to get in for October 24th.  ;D

Good morning, Just wanted to write to say that I have completed my ACS testing and passed (just barely).  What a brutal experience! Anyways, if there is anyone from the 2016061A (06-08 June 2016) serial that is on here, please feel free to PM me. I'd like to keep in touch.  Sincerely...
