    Anyone else joining the Rhileys from Hamilton?

    I'll be seeing you there bud....I called and spoke to the Cpl. and he told me I will be enrolled as well, however I have yet to receive the email [he said he'd send it out this week or next]. According to the Cpl. we start in October though, and we'll be training all the weekends in Oct except...

    Promotion & education problem

    Last time I checked my tuition was $5000 a year...a simple bachelor's degree in most all cases is a 3 year program [honours is 4 years], which takes your $50000 evaluation down quite a notch [$50000-$15000 =$35000 saved]. You can argue that you were including all costs [transportation, food...

    Haha noted. I'm not going to start a big argument here though, it's a conservative majority, got to celebrate!

    Osama Bin Laden Dead

    Sorry if this is off topic, but it kind of irks me when people just instantly think that the people who are saying that Osama Bin Laden could not be dead are instantly the one's with tinfoil hats. I mean literally all of the information we have right now is a presidential statement and word of...

    MilPoint Betting Feature?

    Yeah I thought about that but the limit some people have on MilPoints sending is kinda low [for myself I can only bet max 60...hopefully the betting feature if added would allow people to bet all their MP]. Its definetly something doable for now though.

    MilPoint Betting Feature?

    Hey all, I ran a quick search and couldn't find anything on this... Anyways, with all the hype over the Stanley Cup Playoffs I have been caught up in a few bets with my buddies over Vancouver vs. Chicago. I was wondering if there could be a feature on this website that would allow users to bet...

    If I was a betting man I'd go with the statistics, but damn has Chicago been looking good!

    Only three NHL teams have ever came back from a 3-0 deficit in the playoffs...one was last year though  :-\

    The Vancouver Canucks Rule Thread! ha ha

    You don't understand, they're just trying to make things interesting.... But yeah, I am starting to get really rattled....basically it's all up to Vancouver's goalie for game 7... I am probably looking too far into it, but do you think that the backup goalie could have been embellishing his...

    Helpful [maybe] Advice

    I really am not the qualified person to be telling you much of anything regarding your situation as I just applied in person yesterday. This was my situation...I emailed the recruiting officer for the unit I wanted to join, and through that they told me to come in with all the required...

    Helpful [maybe] Advice

    I am just trying to give some advice to those who plan on applying to the reserve or regular force. I was just at my local armoury today to hand in my application for Pres infantry. There were 4 other people with me, and 3 of them were 16-17 year olds who all seemed to be close friends. This...

    To get back to the armour aspect of this thread, what personal weapons does an Armour Officer/Crewman carry into their AFV's?

    General questions

    Why? The US could do it right now if they wanted to. Also, what if an attacking country simply set up positions in Greenland and used it as a base to fly bombing runs into Canada? Wouldn't be too hard. Anyways, I agree with N. McKay...I mean in the 1900s there have been two world wars where...

    Recruiting Posters, Slogans and Commercials [Merged]

    Clearly I did not realize this as my post specifically states "[But this argument is assuming they were tasked to KAF, and they did not volunteer...not being a member of the CF I am not sure how it works for them]." My post was not clear about what I meant about awareness though. I just meant...

    Recruiting Posters, Slogans and Commercials [Merged]

    I agree. I mean obviously the infantry has a more dangerous time than the Tim Horton's worker at KAF [mentioned previously], but this is what the infantryman signed up for. I mean the whole infantry job entails an inherent hazard when it comes to fighting a war/in general. The same can be said...

    Help! Confused! Recruiting Woes...Can Someone Please Explain this to Me??

    I checked the www.forces.ca website for both INF and ARMD and they do not state what degree is "ideal". I am assuming by your above post that you are somewhat in the know, so could you please elaborate as to which degrees are ideal for INF and ARMD Officers?

    RMC After a University Degree

    The Naval Combat System Engineer Officer is a trade that is Navy only. If you wanted this trade, first you would have to improve your English skills. Second, you would have to join a Navy reserve [assuming you meet all qualifications and they are hiring]. So yes, I think there is a big...
