For some reason I thought of this scene from Star Wars: "Yoda: Why wish you become Jedi? Luke: Well, mostly because of my father, I guess. Yoda: Ahh, father. Powerful Jedi was he. Powerful Jedi. Luke: How could you know my father? You don't even know who I am. Oh, I don't even know what I'm...

One more resource. Here's the Navyseal.com (Unofficial Navy Seals. Made up of former Seals from what I gather) WOD: http://www.navyseals.com/crossfit-workout-day Why did I post this? Because running is integrated into it. It runs Monday-Saturday with Sundays off and the authour recommends...

Here are some resources for those who like reading about PT (My background is in Kine so that's me. :) ). NSCA's Tactical Athlete Strength & Conditoning: http://www.nsca-lift.org/tsac/ This one comes from the National Strength & Conditioning Association, a credible, science-based organization...

The good thing is the CF won't reduce it's quality control. By this I mean sure, they could have huge numbers going through St Jean but quality would be sacrificed for quantity. I put in for my CT back in 2 Jan 08 and I'll find out what BMOQ I'm on in a week. Yes, it gets annoying at times...

Somehow this seems appropriate here (obviously made by a marine but the message is still good):

As far as I know, it's the CDA (Canadian Defence Academy) that loads people on these courses not CFRC. I'm in the midst of a CT w/OT and got this email back on 6 Feb 08: "First, you have now completed all phase, now in the process with CDA BTL to load you on your BOMQ. ( will know apprx end of...

I didn't catch that. I got it right when I listed my present unit however. I think the locations are all pretty accurate although I am open to corrections.

I can't believe 25 (Toronto) Field Ambulance was left out. Anywho here's a comprehensive list: "Canadian Forces (CF) Health Services Reserve units are located in the following areas:     * Nova Scotia: 33 Medical Company - Halifax and 35 Medical Company - Sydney     * Quebec: 51 Ambulance de...

Probably around the end of Feb. I know I am going but just awaiting when. Here's a snippet from an email: <paste> First, you have now completed all phase, now in the process with CDA BTL to load you on your BOMQ. ( will know apprx end of Feb) </paste> I was giddy when I got that. Got that bad...

How else does BMOQ differ from Basic Up (BMQ)? Getting my official word at the end of the month, just awaiting my official date from CDA BTL. So likely I'll be doing BMOQ sometime in May from what I've been hearing around here. PS. I'm doing a CT. Did QL2/3 Infantry WAYYYY back in '98. So I...
