    BMQ / SQ

    Yes I am in agreement with the knowledge part but at the same time it can freak one out when they find information.  Like myself I thought we would be apart for three months tops and well now I am looking at about two years.  YIKES!!  Oh well happy trodding right.  :salute:

    BMQ / SQ

    lol.  Funny you should say that.  A few weeks ago there was a discussion about PAT Platoon and the omittance of this information during the recruiting process.  lol.  Maybe at recruiting they just generally didn't know that some people would be on PAT for 14 months but I think that it would be a...

    BMQ / SQ

    It does all depend.  They are traisl in the works for a combined BMQ/SQ.  You minght get on one of those or you might not which would mean that if your trade reequires you to take SQ that you will have to do that seperatly. As for a break between the two course that depends as well.  My DH...

    Nova Scotia Thread- Merged

    I also live in Cole Harbour and have to agree with pretty much everything that was already said here. Our unemployment rate is at 5.3% right now and like Springroll said sometimes the wages aren't the best but if you are willing to look and be patient for the right job I am sure that you would...

    I would just like to say that I was meerly trying to enlighten you of the details of things that may come.  Not once did I bring out my "claws". I honestly feel sorry that both are unable to read and can not understand english and would just like you to know that I will not partake in this BS...

    Sersiously because you have a strong realtionship with your DH you will get to listen to him talk about what perversions go on during BMQ and the miltary life there after and you will have to deal with the heart ache of knowing that your DH has no friends becuase everyone is out messing around...

    Leave Policy – Weekends (time off) Merged]

    Not once did i say that I agree with it.  In fact if my DH was to ever do that to me, that I knew about, I would kick him to the curb without a second thought or glance.  It would be very disgraceful to me and to what I thought our relationship was about. The hard facts are that alot of...

    Yes I do know you from somewhere else. TML. I think that you may have taken my comment the wrong way.  I do not put myself on a pedestal at all.  There are going to be so many emotions that you will go through you once he is gone and you have no control of them and you can not prepare for...

    Leave Policy – Weekends (time off) Merged]

    I really hate to say this but I honestly think that drinking and partying is a big part of the BMQ.  Not that it is a bad thing but it adds to the closeness and bonding that is necessary for the men and woman to do when they are away.  They also will be very very stressed out and will need to...

    SQ, dates and courses, HELP!

    He will have to stay there.  In order to get a leave they have to do up a leave request which takes a few days and unfortuantley can't be done until he gets there. I am in Halifax too.  There are quite a few of us that are in the same position right now and we get together every once in awhile...
