    WEPS TECH OJT IN PET?

    Wherever you go will most likely be second line.  Ask around and see if you can find out what unit it will be.  Haven't worked in Pet in years but 2 Svc Bn weapons shop is excellent, well laid out, large and not in some falling down building.

    Mail and care packages sent to BMQ / BMOQ

    I have to concur with sending handwritten letters.   It doesn't really matter what you say in it, just that you sent it.   Just tell him what you've been doing, mundane stuff, etc.   When I was first on course fresh out of school my mom sent me so many letters some of the others on my course...

    Question about Cap Badges

    Normally the EME capbadge is put up after EME common is completed which is usually just prior to QL3.   At least when I was there that was the practice.   You wore a cornflake or your old capbadge until then. Definitely calling the school for clarification is a good idea. Edit:  I stand...

    graduation?

    Bull, I have no idea where your SQ will be, you will find out very close to the end of your course, for sure.  Its a good thing to continue your training right away, don't knock it.  Delays are no fun and its much better to get all your training done in a row rather than sitting in some PAT...

    Illegal to trap cats?

    I have, many times... to the vet I work for.  We've taken numerous xrays of dogs and cats for completely different reasons and found pellets in various places which seemed to be doing no harm to the animal.  By no means am I advocating shooting them with pellets and its obviously painful for the...

    WEAPONS TECHNICIAN - LAND

    You should inquire about EME Common which is usually required prior to your QL3 course.  They usually run them in the summertime so you may have time to do both SQ and EME common this year.

    Auto Insurance In Ontario

    when I moved from BC to NS my auto insurance was almost cut in half.  I'm not a big fan of provincially regulated insurance simply from my experience with ICBC.

    Illegal to trap cats?

    Joe McSweeney, Usually pellets are not harmful but I've seen them abscess quite badly and cause a raging infection that's life threatening to the cat.    I think we all agree that cats shouldn't be out roaming around if the owner is a responsible pet owner. Unfortunately, many aren't or the...

    Illegal to trap cats?

    Ghost, You should definitely call animal control and explain your predicament.  They may or may not have the power to help you out depending on if the cats are owned (and can be proven to be such) and if they are being legally cared for by the owners.  Also, check with the town and see if...

    graduation?

    Bojangles, It depends on when the military has arranged for you to go to your next base.  It may be several days before you leave or it may be the next day.  As the end of the course nears you will get more info as to when the transport has been arranged.  If it is several days you can request...

    Bojangles, The bike I moved is LONG gone.  I have a Kawasaki 454 LTD right now which is dead and needs much work to make her live again.  Planning on starting this spring when things warm up a bit.  What do you have?

    New guys in our unit have had it broken up.  You do the courses you can when you can.  If you can't do SQ right after Basic there is often an SQ offered on weekends during the winter.
