    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    Yes there is time for the finer things in life at RMC including: drinking at the mess, drinking downtown, drinking at mess dinners, drinking at monthly parties, as well as general drinking. Theres also the breakfast beer at the Toucan on sundays (one of my favourites when I was there). But...

    Types of Ammuniation

    You'll learn all of this stuff on BMQ. There is no point to fill your head with useless insignificant information before you go there. In the grand scheme of things this has little importance.

    Driver Licensing

    Millitary vehicles aren't only for officers. They are for OFFICIAL use only. You can't go joyriding in them on the weekends (only on timmie runs during the week)

    Pilot Selection

    Yeah what zoomie said. As well there is a 36 year old 2Lt with me on OJT waiting for his moose jaw course that isn't supposed to start until august i believe. So you're not alone in wanting to join at an older age.  Also, last summer I did a course with a guy who had spent 30 years with the...

    How important is bilingualism when applying for ROTP?

    yeah he completed ROTP and now he is a 2lt in Bagotville. French isn't a big deal when you go to civi U, only when you go to RMC cause it distinguishes between an "RMC" degree and a "CMC" degree. I don't know anything about the pharmacy trade so I can't really help you out there. Good luck with...

    How important is bilingualism when applying for ROTP?

    its actually not the same if you're not at RMC. At Rmc you take french courses every single day, however, at civi U you do not have that benefit. You will spend an entire summer at St.jean doing Second Language Training (SLT). Its not that big of a deal. I'm here in Bagotville and one of my...

    With laser eye surgery you CANNOT be a pilot in the miliatary. You have to pick another MOC or just fly for the civvies. and yes...we have to have perfect everything ::)

    RMC or NCM?

    You can go into any career that doesn't require an engineering degree. I know guys with MSS degrees who are everything from Int to Infantry to Pilot so it really does not matter. However, the majority of the people who do go MSS end up going combat arms.

    released as an officer - can I go ncm?

    I don't think the commission is retired because we have always been told to salute retired officers (i.e. ex-cadets from rmc). I'm really not too sure on this subject if you can re-enrol as an NCM but I would have to say yes you can....best bet is to call the local CFRC.

    RMC or NCM?

    I would suggest finishing at least your first year. Some education is better than none and it would be eaiser for you to finish your degree later on if you have at least one year under your belt. Finish up the year and then think about it again. If you want to continue on with your education, go...

    RMC or NCM?

    Based on your last post it seems to me that the best option for you is infantry. Take it from someone whos been to RMC, if you don`t like having your nose in the books, DON`T go to RMC. Thats all you do there cause you do so many more classes at RMC than you do at regular university. By the time...
