    Divining the right role, capabilities, structure, and Regimental System for Canada's Army Reserves

    I had 10 years in the regs as a Wpns Tech. I took the FRP in 95. A few years later I tried to get back in to the same trade, they told me it would take a year. I gave up.

    Adam earl Asks The Same Question Over and Over

    You really don't seem to get the message that this is NOT the place where you will get answers to these questions. ONLY a recruiter will be able to answer this depending on the severity of your problems. And learn how to write properly, it is a rule of this site, and very annoying to have to read.

    Army Reserve taking the budget hit? - National Post

    I think more interest should be looked at the "...news that DND’s budget for professional services, which includes consultants and contractors, is up by $475-million while the army’s budget over all has been slashed by 22%." Thats where the money should be cut!

    Is it time for gendered hair standards to go?

    I personally dont think males should have long hair, If you want to join the military then make the commitment to have short hair. I dont care if the ladies want to have long hair as long as they keep it in a bun or similar but when it comes to corn rows and other stuff I dont think that is too...

    Is it time for gendered hair standards to go?

    He did not say he wanted to have long hair or anything. He is stating that there are different standards for both sexes and , I am assuming, that he dosnt think the ladies should have so many choices when males do not. I just dont think he wrote it down to well. I think we need more detail in this.

    Walts, posers & wannabes (merged)

    I agree, they make me want to vomit. I bet I made more sweat on one day in Pet than they have in their entire lives. They shouldnt wear the uniform (and rank) let alone the maroon beret. What a bunch of geeks.

    My Application HORROR story ! someone please chime in

    Back when I joined in 1983 it took a year, that was when not a lot of people were joining. It takes time, get used to it. "Hurry up and wait" is what you will be doing for your career, if you get in.
