I attested 15 Oct.  Some elements took a little longer than I thought but the deed is done. I am glad to be able to say I am again a member of the CF.  Sounds korny but I am proud.

I had a great fundraising idea for our cadet corps that looks like it has borne fruit and I am looking for a good military charity that could use some funding, potentially tens of thousands of dollars, seriously, no BS.  I was thinking along the lines of Wounded Warriors but am looking for some...

Well, I went through the physical today and I guess I can hear thunder and see lightning so I will be attesting and coming aboard as a CIC officer cadet in the next couple of weeks.  In summation, my total time from application to attesting was less than 1 yr (9 months) and I am former...

I'm not sure if it's good form to discuss topics of this nature or not but thought that some would not mind sharing their stories. For myself it started last year.  I work in the oilpatch here in Alberta.  I make a pretty good living off of it, but for the first time in a number of years the...

We are a small rural corps and have 22 on paper, we usually parade 20.  I'm hoping to get that number up to around 35 this year.  I've had a number of enquiries so far this summer and 35 seems an attainable number.

Already on it.  I have three applications ongoing and maybe one more coming in.  I realize that it is very nearly impossible to run a cadet unit with one officer, at least run one successfully.  I am hoping that by this time next year they will have gone thru the recruiting process or at least...

What happens after your interview and physical?  How long after that do you usually attest?  How long after you attest are you in uniform?  I have my physical late in August and our last CIC officer leaves our corps in October.  What are the odds I'd be in uniform by then.  Oh, passed my...

Any ideas on what other changes this may initiate in the CIC?  Bigger budgets for example.  What roles NCMs may take in the CCOs?

We have some documents, photographs and some other things we would like to donate to the C Scot r museum or archives.  My wife's great uncle died during the fighting near Calais in WW2 and we have a few things we feel should be with the regiment if they want it.  If anyone could help us out we...

I am going thru the process myself, so far my CI paperwork has gone through all right and I have an interview in three weeks at my local CFRC.  Five months to get this far.  That is not not real bad, and I think the others are right.  CIC enlistment is at the bottom of the priority list and...
