Truth! And I would like to see some pictures as well.  I'm training for the Iron Man and have recently purchased a frame from the CPGear cats.  I had planned to pay one of the local guys (local as in Pet of course) to rig it up but if one of you fine folks would like to break out the TOETS on...

Don't be nervous. They can't touch you, they can't even swear at you.  You are there to demonstrate strength of character and the ability to follow instruction under adversity.  What you see here is an impressive application of a character building situation.  Piece of cake. you go girl ;) now...

Just a thought guys, but why don't you go for the Military experience and leave the junk food at home. Learning to live off the IMPs (for a week or two) is no biggie.  You might even lose a couple pounds and feel great like I did. If you're in minus temps, make sure you bring hot paws.  If...

Well this is something, nearly two years after I started this thread, it is so entertaining to go back and read it all.  One guy that responded ended up being my fire team partner in SQ.  whiney baby who couldn't stand the cold, I had to laugh when shell casings from my C9 at 3 in the morning...

Hey, I want a mechanical hoe too! they should be army issue :)

As a former member of the media with related post secondary education I was intrigued by a recent presentation by the PAO's office and inquired as to the chances of joining that office.  Per usual I was given two answers.  OC said there are possiblities, pass up a memo, NCM chain said first step...

"Demonstartion position...Change!"  that one always made feel like it was....just wrong  especially if you were in the front row :)

oh yeah, trying to keep that nozzle on the shaving cream from getting foamy was impossible.  I used a cheat from this here thread, I went with the shaving cream tub with the brush.  nice and clean, never used it, so nice....

OMG, if you were told to bring two pair.  bring two pair. bless you all.  have one pair for running and one pair for inspections. (that way it doesn't matter what they issue you, you're good to go!) Oe pair of running shoes will be more than enuff for the two (MAX 3) runs that you will go on...

hey Baudseed, Once the ball starts rolling on your application and you find yourself at basic training, you can rely on two very simple pieces of advice, 1) Do what you are told, (especially when no one is looking) 2) The universal law of reciprocation- (watch your buddy's back, and he'll watch...

"THIS COURSE ISN"T OVER YET!!!"  I think we heard that line nearly twenty times on our last day at SQ training.  Now we are nearing the end of our QL3 course and we're all listening for it.  We know now that when you hear it, you're almost there :)

Seen! and hey, when I said no Tequila, I meant it. look at the mess they made me make  :)

No such luck for my crew just coming out of Kingston, we're all looking at HQ and Sigs.    No RCR for us, at least, not yet anyway.

i couldn't help but notice your name, "rmc wanna be", does this mean you're going to RMC?  or will you be joining us lowly non com types at the top of the hill in Kingston?

One step closer to the big "A-stan" I'll be showing my ugly mug in Pet at HQ and Sigs as of late September. Anyone know what a newbie does there?

PUSH UPS my good man, start now  :)

I am currently on my Sig Op MOC appren training in Kingston.  After rereading this thread and having come to know and work with many of the peopel that have responded to this thread over the past year, I must say, this is a very cool experience.  Last September I was sitting in my kitchen...

I'd rather be doing spinnergy than listening to a certain PTE desperatelly trying to modify VP with his own good manners.  "Sorry, please repeat your last???" s'all good though, at least I'm not humpin the c9 with snow shoes at 4am with the ammo box draggin behind me.

Just try to keep in mind that a mere 12 weeks after you start, you'll be laughing about the whole thing and glad as hell that you stuck it out. I made some new friends and came away with some new found pride in both myself and my country.  I am working through my MOC training in Kingston right...

Hey Armychic, It sounds like that was your MK test.  Stay calm, go over your rank structure, I wrote it before christmas and it's mostly common sense. Having been past that stage I can say that even if you have to do things over again (as painful as it might seem) the extra time there can only...
