Cut your hair before you go, that way you will be prepared.  Instead of some members of my platoon who had to grab electric beard shavers and mutilate their hair :P. since we werent given a chance to go to a barber shop untill our first weekend off, which was after 2nd week.

Im switching to the reg force, and I have to redo all the tests, plus a military background check.

I don't think it's just a job.... I think it's a part time job. AND thats why Im going reg force lol.

You might also want to pick up some brochures and have a chat with the recruiter about the trades , because it will help with the interview. At the end of my interview, the guy that was interviewing me (forget his name and rank) told me to go and read up on infantry , he said something about me...

Give the recruiting center a call, ask them if it poses a problem....

Good now I know what to ask him to put down when I handed him a 20. Worst part is , if I could have just stayed in shape from doing BMQ this summer, it would have made this test a piece of cake, seeing as how i did 60 push ups, 55 sit-ups and ran 2.4k  in 9:50 lol. god, I fell out of shape so...

Thats more formal then mine was... I got sworn in by myself on a bible in a back room.

ok, thanks

You should have asked if she wanted to come over to your house, cook some button stew and watch a movie.

That movie clip reminded me of one of my roomates from BMQ.  He tried to convince us all that we were being brainwashed by the government, and that the truth was actually all in a nice pamphlet he had.  I told him I didn't care, and proceeded to fall asleep for a good hour while he tried to...

Ill be heading to the surplus store and trying to find a cheap half-shelter because mine went missing on the last ex.  Worst part is I know the sergeant that picked it up, He just hasn't shown up in over a month, and now i have to get a new half-shelter before this comming ex.  Come to think of...

Its now November and I have my papers all filled out and ready to hand in... only took 2 days to get my references and everything together, but it took 2 months for my memo to get through.  Only problem now is that I keep getting told I am not allowed into the Orderly room, and I have to give my...

It would probally be easier to just join the regs after highschool, which I'm assuming is what you have planned.  In the reserves you will gain some good experience and learn about whatever you plan to pursue, the only problem is that the paperwork to transfer can sometimes take much longer then...

I hope I can get to st.jeans by january... but my file is going to take forever since im transfering from reserves to regs . luckily for me , while Im waiting I still get to play with the guns, just like when i go in tomorow  :P

I got given a piece of paper with everything I needed to include.  So hopefully that happens everywhere.

Im in the reserves, and i got "sworn in" in a back room, nothing special.... of course, a buddy from BMQ got sworn in by the CO and it was special, so just phone and ask in the morning and hope someones around.

One thing that I noticed in some of the pictures  is that the guys arent wearing their combat shirts under their vests, just their t-shirts. They should get it on before they catch a cold...
