    Canadian Forces videos at the CFRC

    You are correct. CFRC Toronto plays Truth, Duty, Valour. Sometimes they will have extra copies. Try asking for the set. If they have any you may get one.

    Battle of the Atlantic

    Holy cow you have quite the Navy background. Your family fought in almost every theatre the Navy was in. Must be some terrific memorabilia in your house. I won't say terrific memories. Can't say I've heard about too many of them come out of the war.

    ROTP after High School Questions

    Direct Entry Officer (DEO) and ROTP are two different entry programs and have two different numbers of available openings. If your friends applied DEO then I can see the trades being closed. ROTP has a different set of numbers they go by so don't be worried about openings. Look in the yellow...

    ROTP after High School Questions

    As a retired Recruiter my advice to you is two fold here. First, there are many threads on this topic here have a look. Second go into your local Recruiting Centre and ask a Recruiter. They have all the information on what you need, what will make you competitive and what courses the CF will...

    If you want to improve your math or english you can try either going to Chapters and getting a book on Aptitude Tests or talk to your teachers in High School or look at night school. You have 3 months to wait for the next write us it to your advantage. As for drugs the CF has a zero tolerance...

    If he is doing BMOQ it will be 14 weeks. If he is doing some trades training it will be from the time school is out in April until school is back in September, minus any annual leave he wants to take.

    Re-enrollemnt: Sea Time?

    If you haven't been out very long, couple of years, the RC will be able to pull up your MPRR. You no longer need your whole pers file to re-enrol. Also they will have to see what your release item was to make sure you can re-enrol.

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    If you have already written the CFAT twice you will have to have a waiver for the third write. This must be submitted to and approved by CFRG Hq in Borden. This can only be done if it's been more than 1 year since your last write and you have SIGNIFICANTLY up graded your education since the last...

    New Program for Veterans

    Yep I read it as many do not WANT help. I have a feeling that some of the old stigmas are still in play in some people. "If I ask for help then I'm weak" I know it's not as bad as it was but we still have it out there. The programs we have today are outstanding and the support we get from not...

    New Governor General Service Medal?

    Why issue a medal to someone who can't wear it. If you didn't do 12 to get the CD then exactly when do you plan to display this award and how? If you want recognition then apply for the Veteran's Plates for your car. I think (but don't quote me) quite a few of the provinces have this now. You...

    thinking about changing trades

    A couple of years ago we had a meeting with CFLRS staff and the CO he told us he would NOT entertain any requests for VOT. So unless you can find away around that your pretty much going to finish BMQ as you started. Once your done and in your next unit look up VOTP in either CFAOs or DOADs. It...

    Where would I go for basic training?

    Better to ask the Regimental Recruiter. They would know better about Reserve training than the Recruiting Centre.

    Toronto Reserve Forces April 1st

    Contact the Regimental Recruiter they will have all the info. RCs don't always get all the info from the different units.

    Conditions under which an offer to RMC can be revoked?

    Having given any false information on your application or at anytime during the process will get you "yanked". I watched 2 NCMSEP students walk. One after first semester one 3 weeks after he was enrolled. Make sure that if you have any changes in your health, financial status or marital status...
