if they allowed someone to do pushups on their knees I will love my next fitness test, after all 19 push ups are so many for someone who has to do like 100-200 a day on course. but ya.. thats rediculas.

Nothing can be done to speed up the application process, Sometimes it takes months.. sometimes it takes years.. I know people who waited three years to get their call to join the reg force.. so.. Count yourself lucky you have gotten this far, and wait a bit longer.

I got my work done in a bout 4 months.. .and from what everyone told me. .from day of tests to day stepping into Saint Jean.. four months is expediated.. It was because I am a Sig Op. They are highly needed right now, so they rushed things.. some people wait years.. so I suggest you dont get...

if you change your unit I suspect they will redo the entire application process making you wait even longer.. I dont know I am not a res Im a reg force.. But I can only see it taking you even longer to get your unit.. The entire No PT thing.. that has to seriously be a joke.. I mean.. really? I...

we had some good times in wainwright for SQ. did some crazy things.. Im sure every Soldier has those stories though.

I thought borden only does Res BMQ? though I could be wrong.. I saw a bunch of recruits running around while I was on PAT. Just never had the time to talk to any of them.

well ya, though if i do plan on drinking I do it in my apartment. :P though I hear stages in kingston is nice.

they dont exist in borden anymore. sadly  we do have like 4 dollar nights though . i got pleanty drunk in borden.  those times are gone though, im on the ql3s so until I top that.. no partying.

good advice hugo. I have gone through all of the basic stuff.. I even did SQ i was one of the last courses to ever get that privilage, anyway. dont stress it.. just do what you can 300-500 pushups a day.. man are you crazy i STILL dont do that many.. and i do 25 to enter a building or leave a...

my sq was 7 weeks long.. I did it in wainwright, ab. it was fun.. but ya i spent alot of time in borden. the problem is.. its all bout time for courses.. sometimes they get loaded right away. other times they dont. .its a hit or miss sorta thing really.. sometimes its perfect sometimes you wait...

My roommate in borden was released from the forces due to having sleep apnea. his problem was he requires a ventilating machine in order to sleep ( apparently developed the problem after getting into the forces.. i have doubts but..still) anyway he was sent to sq where he was given a medical...

I think its everywhere that sorta problem.  i just wish people would grow up..

kingston is fun. except when you have idiots on course with you that cause you to do extras because they like to go out drinking on a thursday night and get so drunk they cant make timings friday morning. then.. its not so fun.

thanks lots:)

Alright I have a few questions but they are more opinions. I am currently in my Signal Operator App course, and soon it will be time to choose where i would like to get posted. It seems the likely choices are kingston, pet , edmonton. now i would like to have the opinions of people, which base...

Alright to answer alot of questions. I am a sig Op.. Currently in kingston on my QL3s, and to answer the question NO you do NOT need a civilian drivers licence to be a signal operator, you do however need a 404 that enables you to drive the LSVW that is all, which you can get without having a...

I have been in the forces for just over a year now. I have taken many courses, from LS training to The beginings of my Signal Operator Appren course. So natually I have seen many many power points, and many OHPs. I think power point works much better, though some content can never be made to be...

armored do not do pat in borden. they go to gagetown i believe.. and as for unarmed combat. yes we get an unarmed combat instructor to teach it.. though I admit its not judo or anything like that its more self defence. good to know. .may save your life some time. but nothing youd see on tv really...

thanks.  I just dont like the negitive attitude everyone has here.. they PAY us money to climb walls, and exercise.. where else can you get a sweet deal like that?

for those who dont think pretc does anything.. C coy just got finished a 4 day 34 k hike from collingwood to Meaford... we do a ton of things like climb rock walls, and unarmed combat. sure it can get repetitive. but to say we dont do anything is just wrong and the NCMs are not bad if you have a...
