Hmm.  Well, it's possible that they may have.  I just don't recall.

Everyone had ugly glasses and cheesy moustaches. Were skinny leather ties part of the uniform back then?  >:D

I don't believe that you are asked to disclose drug use during your medical.  At least, they didn't when I was joining. They do, however, during your interview. I was in the same boat about 10 years ago, when I was joining the Army Reserves Co-op Program.  It was September, and I had...

They gave me mine yesterday.  Bronze. I didn't expect them to just unceremoniously hand it to me like they did, though. I figured they would hand them out at a hands fall in or something like that.

Lots of MARS Officers were pushed through the grades with the bare minimum required control time.  This resulted in several Alpha SACs who lacked the experience required for the position. (IMHO)

*LOL* That's awesome.

You should report right away to Atlantic Block Accommodations.  Most cabs will be able to take you directly there.  Just ask for A-Block in Stadacona.  I would have tried to get my flight for the tenth.  I like to enjoy a night on the town before I start my courses.  And the extra time couldn't...

Nice!  I always hoped that they'd press this guy into service.

Yeah, that sounds about right.  But it's going to be hard for them to calculate every little sail that you do. SOVPAT, Sea Trials, Salty Dips, etc.  Based on that, it would probably just include major exercises and deployments; stuff that gets written into your UER.

Does anyone know when this will take effect?  Is this operational sea time, or just time posted to a ship?

How old are you currently?  What are you thinking of doing when you join?

I visited the museum earlier this evening, and it was amazing.  I was very impressed by all the artifacts.  It was one of the best military museums I've ever visited, actually.  I was hoping, at best, to find my grandfather's name in the unit's nominal role.  I found that and much, MUCH, more...

Thank you very much.  The site says the Museum is open Mondays.  I may drop by this evening or next week.  Are Monday evenings parade nights then?  Are there any members of this site who belong to the regiment? I'd love to see the mess...  :)

Hi there.  I'm currently in the city of Winnipeg on a namesake city visit with members of my ship, HMCS Winnipeg. My Grandfather was in Fort Garry Horse during World War II.  I would like to come by and check see the Regiment/Armoury sometime.  Is there a Regimental Museum or something that I...

Have you checked the recruiting site? http://www.forces.ca/html/signaloperator_reg_en.aspx This should tell you all you need to know.

For accommodations, I reccommend the Executive House Hotel.  They're reasonably priced, and they offer a good Military discount. http://www.executivehouse.com/ You may want to check out the Blethering in Oak Bay.  It's a great place to go for tea, and it's about as traditional as you can get! ...

I just got back off leave yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised to learn about the run this morning.  This is exactly what the Navy needs, a fleet-wide fitness initiative. Overall, I had a great time.  I got some PT in, saw some people I haven't seen in ages, and had fun.  It was a welcome...

That's true.  To be honest, I'm worried about making the cut at UVIC or a more prestigious University.  I didn't finish High School with the best grades.  I passed, but I was a different person ten years ago with different priorities.  I'm sure kicking myself in the ass for it now though. I'm...
