    New Forums & Sub-Forums? The Evolution of Army.ca

    I typed up a reply but it seems to have disappeared... ill type what I remember: IMHO I agree with Bruce Monkhouse, we have too many sub-forums.  People do not know where to look or post.  Just curious, how many topics have had to be moved recently due to people posting in the wrong sub-forum? ...

    Asthma & the CF (merged thread)

    Unless they say that you cant apply for x amount of months/years in the letter you got then you can re-apply when you get the letter from your respective specialist who says you are good to go or whatever.  You will have to start from scratch and submit an entirely new application form.

    Flat Feet

    Unless you have had problems arise from them, (i.e. when you are running) it shouldn't be an issue.  I am on the flat footed side myself and I had no problem whatsoever with them and neither did the CF.

    ADHD, ADD, and why we can't get in rants......

    I wouldn't get your hopes up, they won't like the fact that you are on medication at all.  It wont really help your chances having ADD, my advice to you is that you wait till you are able to get off your meds, wait 6 months then apply if you still desire.  This is probably what you will be told...

    question about going down to recruitment center

    You go inside, they give you an application booklet with everything you will need inside it, you go home fill it out and come back with it filled out.  Don't bother to dress up, the recruiters arent gonna chew you out just because you arent in a suit and tie.  Sure, bring your friend, the more...

    convincing parents

    Thanks for all the replies, I will most certainly try to use those suggestions. Da_man I don't think she hates the army, she just is very uneducated and thinks that as soon as I join I'll get sent to Afghanistan and get killed, this is the main part of her worries.  I know it could happen but...

    convincing parents

    She was raised by hippies, that might explain a thing or too.  I dont think its a matter of convinceing her that its a good army but rather that im not going to get killed as soon as i join which is what she seems to think.
