I'm flying out Feb 1rst from Saint John, NB.... glad to hear from another Maritimer. Has anyone found out which platoon they're going to be on? I know there are two going in, I just haven't got any of my paper work to find which I'm in yet.

Congrats! I'm going Feb 3rd too for AVS!

Congrats! It's exciting... I'm glad to hear of someone else who is going the same time I am. I wonder if we're going to be in the same platoon? I know there are 2 platoons starting on Feb 3rd. Where are you from? I'm from Saint John, New Brunswick.

Thanks!

Hey all! Just got the call today!! Going in for AVS Tech. Figured I'd start this and hopefully meet up with some fellow recruits going in on the same day.

They must still be doing selections for some trades, because I just got the call for AVS today!! My BMQ is Feb 3rd! So excited!!!

Well... I didn't make it for Jan, but I did for Feb 3rd!! Got the call today! So I guess I'll see ya's all there at some point or another. Good luck, I can't wait!

Just got "THE CALL"!!! Recruiting centre: Fredericton Regular/ Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: NCM Trade choice 1: Med Tech............changed to Avionic's System Tech (Oct 03,2013) Trade choice 2: Supply Tech.........changed to Medical Tech (Oct 03,2013) Tade Choice 3: Construction...

Yeah, definitely not how I wanted to spend my holidays. I've never had anything like pneumonia before, so I'm a bit vague on how long till I can get back to training or how long this is supposed to affect me... The last thing I want to do is be unprepared because I got sick.

CONGRATS!! That's awesome!

Here's hoping for both of us Hattie, although at this point I wouldn't mind a later start date. I managed to catch pneumonia over the New Year and am still in recovery mode, so at this point... if they don't call till the end of Jan, I'm okay by that. The last thing I want to do is go to St...

Yeah, I didn't hear anything this week... so, at least I can rest a bit easy and not have my phone glued to my hand for the next two weeks.  So, I guess we'll wait until after the break and hopefully have a bunch of calls in the New Year! Good luck everyone, and have a great holiday! ...

Here's to us both getting calls.  ;D

Thanks for the advice. I've been steadily increasing my push ups doing that exact same workout, plus a few extras. My cardio is coming up too, I've been working on that like crazy. I'm determined to get awesome at all the exercise required for the expres test and bmq before I go.  :threat: lol

Wow... yup, that was a mix up. Thanks for letting me know. Thanks, I'm hoping that I get in for the 20th or 27th. A bit on the nervous side, I'm not the most in shape person and despite busting my butt at the gym... I'm still only getting 2.5 on the shuttle run and only 5 push ups (thankfully...

So, had my interview and was merit listed.... Now just to wait for the call. Here's hoping AVS has some more selections soon. :)

I feel incredibly lucky... I have a feeling though, it was more to do with the fact that I applied for a very in demand trade then anything else. Maybe give them a call and see if they forgot something or whatever... just to find out what's going on.

Just got word on my medical from Ottawa (cleared!!) and my interview! Interview is next Wednesday. So fingers crossed for a Jan 27th BMQ! Ahh! It's going so fast, gotta hit the gym!

Congrats!!!! I just got my credit snafu cleared up, so now I'm just waiting for my file to be cleared medically in Ottawa and then interview!!

Thank you so much for your insight DAA, it's been a big help. I'm applying for AVS, had a bit of a snafu with extra medical forms and a credit issue that has to be figured out, but that should be taken care of this week. Just have my interview to do after that and then hopefully I'll get...
