I had already found both of those links but thank you for your help.

What are you talking about? Yes, the conversation I found was about should it be open to the public or not. Did you think that is the only criteria for the selection process? 

Hello Everybody, What is life like for an Airborne Electronic Sensor Operator (AESO)? I tried searching but I only found a conversation regarding if it should be open to the public. I would love to hear about the selection process, the training process and the daily life of a AESO. What are...

To an outsider, looking like you know what you are doing is often related to how you look and how confident you are. I thought the idea of have consistent hair cuts was to remove the individuality and make them one coherent team of canadian solders.

It's been a long road but I cleared my final hurdle before the holidays. I sent them gave them my career list so they should receive the career list tomorrow. What is the turn around time between when they make an offer and when you have to be packed up and ready to go to BMQ? Hypothetically, if...

I love my wife but I know that without the limited contact I would find BMQ very difficult (She will complain and I will feel bad). We both need the time apart to get prepared for the change. The separation will force my wife to become less dependent on me so in the future I won't be getting...

Kat has a good point, if you are a man you are going to go bald anyway so just shave it now. :) I was never a big fan of having short hair but I clipped it awhile ago and never looked back. It was the greatest thing ever.  As far as I am concerned, the system is perfect the way it is.

All grants have stipulations that state what you can and can't use the money for. Someone messed up and they should be reprimanded. It's been a while since I read a Canadian grant application but from what I remember violence was highly frowned upon. In any case why is art protected and how do...

I just watched the video and man does it look interesting. I have to crank up the weight during my training.

Hey, I was looking at the shuffle run and checking out the details on the website. Is it possible to do 36 25m shuffle runs in 60 seconds? I don't think I have a good frame of reference for 25m. Thanks

Hey Everybody, It looks like I might be to late for basic this summer so I might as well train for a marathon while I wait. This is a little off topic but I read lots of posts regarding running on this site so I know there are some hardcore runners here.  I did some research and searched the...

Thanks for having the patients to work with me while I figured out what I was trying to say. It helped and answered all of my questions. Over the last 15 years I have been debating joining but I had to work out a lot of character flaws first (quit smoking, drinking, etc). After signing up last...

I should point out that my uncle designed tanks and my grandfather fought in WWII but was forced to return to England to be an engineer. IMHO they both served their country.

Hey PPCLI, Sorry for the confusion. I am an IT person, volunteer fire fighter and mfr. I was also at one point was a national life and surf guard and I hope to take hazmat training in the not so distant future. Leading solders hasn't changed (hence the title) and I would love comms research...

Hey, First thanks for your response. When I say I don't want to command I mean I don't want to command solders in battle. I don't think I am aggressive enough for that task but maybe that's because I haven't been trained to do it. I would follow and in an emergency I would step up but my focus...

Hello Everybody, I don't really consider myself to be officer material or at least I am not a type A personality. I don't tend to make quick decisive decisions. I don't want to lead but I can and I have step up in emergencies. I am more of a strategic planner, I enjoy researching and...

Hey, I searched for something funny but this is all I could really find: Merry Christmas

Thanks for the info. So nothing in atlantic canada.. hmm  >:D

Hello Everybody, I am in the process of applying for a position in Comms Research or CIST depending. Are all the Comms Research positions in Kingston? My soon to be wife has kids from a former marriage and we would like to stay within driving distance for joint custody . Anywhere in Atlantic...

Hey, I was running in regular running shoes for about 4-5k 3 days and had shin splints and other problems. I switched to these and I am now doing about 5k a day and 10k on the weekend on pavement. Start slow, I did 13k the first week I had them since they are so fun to run in and I was hurting...
