I heard my alarm at 5:30 today, which is rare! However I went back to bed since I'm coming down with something. I've heard all the tricks for training, can't wait to put them to use! ;) have a good week Private.

Well maybe I'll warn my platoon before hand, better safe than sorry. I've been getting the hang of 6:30, so I'm almost there! Lol

Forced? Sounds.. Intimidating.

What would a pod be? Just an open room for everybody? As long as someone can see my sleepy a** and 'motivate' me if I sleep in! ;) I'm working on it though...Hard transition from working the night shifts.

Oh the good ol airport.. Should have kept that stuff in your checked luggage! Enjoy your first flight. I almost crapped my pants the first time I flew. ;D

Ah the obstacle course! I'm excited for my first shot at it. Well enjoy it for me, and stay healthy!

More than 60? That's the number I've always guessed!

I could match a good chunk of those to skills used in the army.. It could also depend on your trade choice. (I imagine Military Police would give you a bonus, where as say Vehicle Tech may not be as relevant)

How's week 2 going? Hope you're making lots of friends! ;P

Yes, a big chunk of people are put on hold at some point. How long depends on your trade and CFAT results. Remember, infantry is a very popular trade so your competing against hundreds of others. Good luck!

Yea, I doubt he'll get on for the same date. Just a hope! And I couldn't believe it when I read your post, I'm panicking with a good month of notice! I just hope some people get offers soon for the 2nd so I know who I have to put up with! ;p

I know they're behind schedule, but does anyone know when they will start selecting/calling for March 2? I have a feeling my brother will be called soon ;)

I went through this, and got to know 3 nice gentlemen while we all swapped the odd colours out! Nothing looks to weird or suspicious if you're in Walmart.

You should receive a confirmation email within 24 hours, with a follow up email sometime after that. Could be a few days, could be a few months. It all depends on the needs of the CF and which trades you applied for.

From the preview, this looks like a promising piece of work if they can get it out to the world. http://youtu.be/JAOeNNyk1cc Even the 5 minute trailer puts it in contention with Armadillo and Restrepo/Korengal, IMO.

Yep, I'm glad I called to check up on things or I'd be in that boat. Lucky me got a good months notice. Just need someone to call me with the details now >.<

Ah I see. I have heard some of the housing is very run down,  so I don't expect anything spectacular for the cheaper units. Either way I only plan on it for my first posting. Thanks for the insight. :)

Why would that be? Last I checked the cost of renting on base was much cheaper than the economy.. Are there hidden fees not shown on here or do you mean in terms of cost for size? (Petawawa as example) http://www.cfha.forces.gc.ca/hl-el/petawawagi-petawawaig-eng.aspx I too was hoping to keep...

Ah, very behind if they're only giving 2 weeks notice. Thanks!

Does anybody know if calls have started going out for March 2? I accepted my offer already, just waiting for a call with the finer details! Supposed to come when everyone else gets the offers...
