My flight leaves on Sunday. I'll be meeting one of my buddies down in Toronto and then were heading to Valcartier. What about you?

Looks like I'm attending RMC next year as a Reservist. I got accepted a couple of days ago. Good luck to the guys going ROTP/RETP.

Perfect, thanks.

Hi everyone, I was hoping someone on here could answer a couple of my questions regarding some of the kit that I've received and some more kit that I would like. Today, I went to the base supply store to pick up my DEU's and I was actually given a lot more than I thought (socks, shirts, pants...

Did you finish all of your online learning?

Hopefully you can get in. I spoke to one of the reservists at my unit and she said it took her 2 and a half days to complete her online learning. So, if you can get in, just grind away at it. No pun intended, but I'm literally in the same boat as you. I just got set up with my DL a day or two...

It's not for sure yet, but I'm shooting for June 20th. I have to get all my online learning done first and I'm told it takes a long time.

All I know is my Summer training starts sometime in June and goes up until August. As for the possible destinations, they are Quebec City, Borden, Victoria, or Halifax. I'm not sure if I'll be able to choose. Best of luck to you with your training!

Thanks J.J.Y I was offered a position as a Boatswain at HMCS Cataraqui. What Unit are you at? Did they say when you start your Summer BMQ.

My enrollment is on March 21; and my pre-BMQ training starts on 23 (Reserves). This whole process took too long, but I'm very anxious to get going.

I figured I'd post a question(s) on this topic than start a new one. I was looking over this medical requirements sheet for NCM's and Officers: http://www.forces.gc.ca/en/about-policies-standards-medical-occupations/officer-ncm-minimum-medical-standards.page Does NBP fall under 'Combat...

Oh, I see. It was still a pretty funny story.

I couldn't contain myself after reading that story!I knew there were people like this, but I wouldn't expect them to make it into the military. I know you mentioned he was dismissed, but how long was he in the military?

1. Make sure that before you hit 16 that you have basic grade 10 math locked down. You will encounter the CFAT and it will be very tough if you don't have at least the basics; and if you don't happen to take the CFAT by this time continue to challenge yourself by taking more Math oriented...

The other day I wrote my CFAT and there was another guy who they sent home because he didn't study and he claimed he didn't have a birth certificate (they later found a photocopied version, but still sent him home). His Transcripts were MIA as well. He came and sat next to me and I asked him...

The courses that are listed as "Common" under "MOC POP" does that mean that they're open to all Army trades (including support) or just the combat arms trades?

I got back from my CFAT. I felt good about my test (better than the first time), hopefully I did well. I'll be notified how well I've done within 10 business days. I guess now I should take up a religion and start praying  ;)

Just got the call to re-write my CFAT! I was surprised because I was told it would be December or early January. I could've written it next week, but I scheduled it for October 29th. Can't wait!

That was very informative. I especially liked #8. Mr. Glass, that one cracked me up. :nod:

I think it would be a good idea. I've been trying to find someone who's a Weapons Technician-Land, and hopefully pick their brain about life in that trade.
