Well, I am finally old enough to join the reserves, tomorrow night I am filling out the application so that by the time June comes, I will have 16 credits and don‘t have to wait until January 2003 until i attend Basic Training. Are there any tips you guys have about the very start? As in...

"Regs are better because they do it full time" The Argylls (reserve unit) won a Bronze Medal in the International Cambrian Patrol competiton in Wales (Brecon Beacons) this year, beating the Canadian regs, American Delta Force, Green Berets, 82nd Airborne, and even Rangers. That proves that...

Thanks everyone for the advice! I will take all your replies into consideration. It‘s good to have the opinions of infantrymen. If I have a college or university degree, do I have to be an officer?

I want to jon the infantry as a career, but all my relatives are telling me to go to university. I just tell them that my job won‘t require it, so I won‘t. My step-uncle went to RMC and is a retired Lt. Col, so he is trying to convince me above all. I just don‘t want to be an officer. I want...

I read an article in the Hamilton Spectator a while ago that the Argylls won a bronze medal in the Cambrian Patrol. They were the first Ontario Reserve unit to win a medal and finish (or something like that). Can anyone tell me more about it or if you were in it. I kind of want to create a...

patriot - On January 1st, 2003 I am going to join the Argylls. Until then I will check e-bay. Thanks

An CI at my corps had the book "The Warrior". Where can I get a copy??? That book is my unseen bible. I only saw a couple pages before almost fainting because of it‘s information. Can someone maybe sell me a copy? Or tell me where to get it? thanks

Don‘t they realize that you are in the ARMY? Probably the "gangs" that they are probably worried about think that every soldier could be like Rambo. I would never attack a soldier even if I was bigger than them (I‘m not though). I think that the air force should worry. The Navy not so much...

The order cancelled? That‘s what I heard from my Dad when he watched the morning news in Saskatoon. I called my RSM and he told me that we are now can wear uniforms in public.

My corps isn‘t even wearing our uniforms at our armoury! I‘m going to bring up about changing into them once we get there.

Since NATO said that the war would conducted by them, what would Canada‘s commitment be? Would we send all reg force regiments and possibly reserves or would they pull a Gulf War?

Then I am joining 2RCR. I wanted to join RCR, but didn‘t know which Battalion. Does 2RCR have good Recce?

NEVER COMISSO! Go look at the Argyll‘s cap brass, I could get alot of money for it unlike your‘s (for those wondering, I recruited another member of Kilo Coy, CL PLatoon, Steve Comisso from up north) By the way Irish, let‘s keep the arguements at camp, that isn‘t what this message board is for.

Is there a regular regiment that has a pipe band. I heard that RCR did, but I don‘t know if they still do.

I thought I had met you SOF! I ran into this guy from Hotel who was in the same corps as this girl i was talking to in Golf. She is from 2310 Sault Ste. Marie. The guy in her corps was known as Kyle. right now I am on M&XD for an either torn or badly pulled muscle on my left side.

Don‘t bring civvies! The staff will probably take them away when you have your kit inspection. Another tip - SLEEP WHENEVER YOU CAN!!! I am really exhausted right now and its only 2100! Avoid the MIR, only if you want to wait a loooong time or want to miss half your training day. If you...

I would want Army Cadets to become actually ARMY. Cadets would learn tactics from their affiliated unit and use them on joint FTXs. By the way, my affiliated unit is the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada (Princess Louise‘s).

By any chance, does anyone have any sounds of the C7, C9, and C6 firing on their computers? If you do, plz let me know and I will give you my new e-mail.

Have any cadets here ever been on an exercise with their affiliated unit? My CO promised me that we will be going, but in September. I trust him, but I have heard about that it is against the rules, and I have heard it is not. Also, what do the reserves/reg force guys think about cadets...
