Seriosuly, what on earth are you talking about? If your section cmdr, plt cmdr, plt 2/ic ANYONE in some sort of leadership says "run to that tree" in battle,whether someone is "watching you" or not, your sure as hell running to that tree becasue there is obviously a reason they want you there. ...

Well that's some good news for us students! :)

I was in their for a while. We went in, waited for the whole section to get in, and then did some PT to simulate how working in a NBC suit affects the body.  So we did some running on the spot and running in circles and stuff.  It was probably around a good 15 minutes.

Ya, but we sure "decrease training costs" and add another number to the Reg Force.

During BMQ this summer I think it might have been joked to us by the staff to eat a lot before the gas hut but it was in now way a suggestion, it was obviously a joke said in sarcasm and I'm posative no one even thought about loading up on food or milk before the gas hut. If however...

Ok, it was touched upon breifly, but does anybody know what the specific cause for the long wait on CT's? I mean, If i was considering goign regs and needed a CT, from people on this board and from what i've heard, it could take almost 8 months or even longer.  I don't know the process, but it...

I took 3 in the head this year at SG. Didn't feel a thing.  Probably because of my darthvador mask.  I also got a ricochet onto my hand but it was just splattered paint, no real feeling.  I DID however hear my buddy beside me scream as he took 4 in the ass as the Reg force guys ran by and smoked...

A cadet Mcpl after a year in cadets....I had no idea they promote THAT fast.

NO.  I think it would take away from the mess experience.  Why sit and watch Tv when you can drink and complain? >:D

Haha, actually Sgt, I had an ex. British Para tell me that they used to piss on their feet all the time.  I met him while I was skydiving for my first time, and he was comming outta the porto potty.  I forget how the conversation started but thats what he told me.  Plus,  I had a guy on my...

Although eating a lot of sugary foods or dirnking a lot of pop may, and i stress MAY be a cause of Diabetes, so are many other things.  With my sister and my cousin being Diabetic, I was asked to enter a study because apparently by comparing blood samples they can actually tell if yuo will...

aha i hate that game, but I heard a little twist to it this past summer, it went sort of like Lt said "Goddammit i swear to god, if you troops tip this fucking bus over those of you who can stand will march the rest of the way back to the alpha range with me!!!!"  Silly troops were rcoking...

I don't know if you saw the program on Tv, but they actually had some people fromthe school board film a TV show in my moms school (library to be exact) talking about this exact subject.  I can't see vending machines being the reason for someone being fat and I find that just as an excuse.  A...

Just becase a Corporal is or isn't in a specifically designated leadership spot doesn't mean they can't contribute or be a leader. In fact, as a new pte, who do I look to for leadership while im at the regiment?  Obviously Mcpl and Sgts but the guys I see most and hang around with most are the...

You could do BMQ on weekends and thus, it would then be spread out.  SQ will be straight through in the summer and your engineer training will also be straight through during the summer since MOC training isn't done on weekends.

BMQ 20 training days SQ same thing so it'll equal 8 weeks in total.  Your actual MOC training time I have no idea about.

Oh lord, I think I wrote 4 of them on my BMQ. The intial one. Then a neater version. Then another one which are Sec. Cmdr specifically asked to be a story, somethign interesting that actually "gripped" the reader.  Ex. One of my buddies started off by writing about the car accident he was in...

I don't know abouting setting them up, but they sure were a bitch to take down.  Man.  My platoon had the job of taking one down after SG and then, right after we had them in a nice pile, someone came along and told us to change the piles into something like 10 walls, 1 in window and 1...

What training can you do in CADPAPT that you can't do in normal clothes?  Why would "when i start in the CF next year"  be an intention to get the uniform..considering they'll give it to you, you dont exactly need it in advance do you?  Sorry if I seem hostile, but your "i need it for training...

Ha, well it looks like you've pretty much described what I do, the thing is, I don't mind it at all.  Physical fitness is almost a way to tell apart those who want to be soldiers in the reserves and those who just want the LCF. Unforunitly, there isn't enough training time in the reserves to...
