Congrats! That's the first I've heard of anyone getting an offer for a DEO combat trade in the more than a year I've been on here...Still waiting for Inf. Officer here :(

You should call your LRC and get in contact with the Med. Officer. If you're taking certain prescriptions they'll tell you whether you can bring them to BMQ or not. I was on Ritalin for a while and they told me I needed to be off of it for close to a year before I started course and I assume...

Yeah, if you have been merit listed the earliest you're going to hear any offers is in April/May (Except of course in demand trades like pilot), and on top of that I don't think you'd be on course until August/September :( That will make it short of a two year wait for me...minimum. The ONLY...

I don't believe anyone has talked about this here but stop me if I'm wrong. I was wondering what people's opinions of CANSOFCOM and the media are. In particular I mean compared to American special forces units like Navy Seals and Rangers and the willingness of the American media/ government to...

I'm really excited to see this. I've been digging Whalberg's last few movies so I'm sure this one won't disappoint either. Has anyone read the book that Luttrell wrote?

That escalated quickly...lol Congrats tho.

I hit 495 on the deadlift last week but I gave up squats because it takes away from my running too much I find.

Squats and deadlifts in the same workout? do you have a death wish lol?

That's amazing! Congrats! I hope to see you there!

I THINK that you would have had to been merit listed prior to July 25th for you to be considered...not 100% sure though.

I thought I'd share this stupid a$$ story that a guy who I grew up with told EVERYONE when he did basic a few years ago- this is 100% true, I couldn't make this crap up lol. So He went off to basic when he was 18-19 as a reservist in the infantry. He came back and when anyone would complain...

I've been working as a bouncer here in Halifax for a little while now and most of the guys who show their Navy ID's tend to be quite "plump".  I've never worked in the navy so I'm not sure of the physical fitness required to do their job but it would seem like it isn't that high...at least in...

I called my LRC today just for S&G....of course there wasn't any update since Thursday but I couldn't resist lol. I think realistically none of us will hear anything before next week. Just out of curiosity what are people looking at occupation wise? I'm Inf. Off.

I COULD be wrong here but I'm pretty sure that for you to be considered at selection you must be merit listed first...So if your interview/med are August 12th I'd say you probably won't be merit listed until at least September. Maybe one of the senior members could chime in here.

I would probably say I identify as a Nova Scotian. But like cupper said if I lived abroad I'd identify as Canadian.

Does anybody know what kind of time frame we're looking at here to hear something back ( given you were selected). Like 1-3 weeks maybe?

What occupation are you applying for. I'm Inf Off.

Selection is today :) Let operation "check my phone every two minutes" begin. Lol

I'm sure that's fine for someone who has a full time job or a pension but when I received one as a student and it being like $400+ it was a pretty hefty financial burden. I think it has little to do with ones manhood/womanhood. Plus maybe he's innocent and that's why he's taking it to court...
