    Guys I really need some advice about my life.... joining the army is an option

    For what it is worth, I think the Reserves is one of those things that depends on how much you put into it and how much you want to take out of it.  A lot of my friends are in University right now, and it's a good way for them to work 2 or 3 times a week and have a steady job come summer time to...

    Enrollment / Swearing In Ceremony [MERGED]

    a button up shirt and khakis would probably be fine. I went in today to get sworn in and I just wore a buttoned up plaid shirt with carpenter pants.  The other guy there was wearing a T-Shirt and jeans.

    BMQ Nov 2010

    Well it went from "I'm going to BMQ in November" to people discussing their nerves, asking questions they have to others going, getting information, and generally trying to fit in and get to know one another. It might be derailment in some sense, but I don't think it's detracting from the thread.

    Such a good follow up to the story.  I like feel good stories.  I wish her all the best.

    I want you to ask yourself this:  "Am I truly bothered by this?" Anyway, RabbitSwiftness:  Definitely ask them about it, but it could be a number of things.  I've heard of people getting that information at the swearing in ceremony.  I got mine about two weeks ago and my swearing in is in one...

    I wouldn't worry too much.  It also makes sense.  I know I got accepted in May, but I remember hearing from people at the CFRC that numbers were getting close to "max" for many trades.  I assume that you're merit listed though?  That's a very good thing.

    Medal of Honor (the game) Controversy

    I don't think it matters at all.  It's just a video game.  World has bigger issues then how politically correct a video game is.

    Common Enrollment Medical

    Hmm, maybe you didn't read his posts completely or maybe my post came off too broad...  In any case, this is what he said: "He said a medic was even going to be there the end of the month that I could talk with if I wanted." I meant he should ask this person. If that fails, he could go...

    Common Enrollment Medical

    Ever think of contacting the CF Medical Person and simply asking, "If the first test was incorrect, what is the procedure I have to undertake in order to have my medical cleared?"

    No Kit for BMQ start

    Did you not get a checklist of all the stuff (other then your kit) you will need?  My understanding is that they usually give you some sort of a list with said information on it. Like: 1 X Running Shoes 3 X White T-Shirts 2 X Gym Shorts 1 X Toothbrush and so on and so forth (note:  that was...

    Common Enrollment Medical

    If the medical person is doing their job, they will take all information into account and likely have a recommendation for you in terms of how best to go about continuing the application process.  It would be unlikely that they stick completely with, "Well, we found something and that means...

    Common Enrollment Medical

    I'm pretty sure this is common practice. It'd be like if you had this reversed, and it first said you were fine but on the second try it said you were afflicted.  It's best to have a complete history (or as close to it as possible) readily available when looking at a document like that.  I'm...

    Swearing in

    Even though it's short I think my Mom and Girlfriend want to be there for the swearing in ceremony, so all the more power to them.  Hopefully that's not too odd haha.

    Swearing in

    I just got my swearing in date, and I noted two things that might be useful to someone: 1.  They asked me on the phone if I was going to want the religious one or if I'll want to do an oath of affirmation instead (none religious). 2.  They also gave me some quick follow up questions such as...
