A Raptor, eh? I might take a look into the show, only problem for me would be getting there.

Turns out I'll be at Meaford for the 26th of June as well for PRes SQ/BIQ. Hope to see some of you there!

I cried laughing a few times. The yelling will be the worst of your problems, by the middle of the course, when the yelling is at it's peak, it'll just run off you like water.

Just git'er done, it's that simple. Keep calm, and help out all you can. Make sure your section works as a team all the time. If you give 110%, the course will be a breeze.

I was unaware that army cadets get "trigger time" in the field...

I consider myself lucky that I have a father that would beat the living snot out of me, literally, if he caught me smoking. I will admit I have gone behind his back and tried smoking, but I just didn't like it too much. Also, seeing smokers on my BMQ puking their guts out after a 200 meter jog...

I haven't read the book, but I found the movie to be a bit rushed at times. It was good, not great.

Would it be a good idea for a "wish-list" thread or page to be created, so people can get an idea of what articles are the most wanted?

I'm on my PRes BMQ right now. From what I've seen, there are usually 2 BMQ serials done approx. every other weekend during the year, one during the fall/winter, one during the late winter/spring. There is usually a serial done during the summer as well. The course is 20 training days long...

The wikipedia article on Fred Phelps (the leader of the church) is a good read - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Phelps I think this is another one of his scams, the church (mostly his family, who almost are all lawyers) picks two totally controversial topics, gays and the war and Iraq, and...

More stories like that would be nice.. That reminds me of one of the people in the special class in my high school last year, who tried out for our school version of Canadian Idol. Not only is this guy one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet, he could actually sing, and play guitar up to...

No, fortunatley for me, I got my kit issue the Thursday after my full first weekend of training. I didn't get a tac-vest though.  >:(

I finished my 3rd weekend of BMQ, and at least 3-4 people still don't have kit. Don't sweat it, if your instructors ask you why you don't have kit, just tell them you haven't been issued it yet, and tell them when it will be issued, and that'll be that. Just make sure you pay attention when...

The Sikhs I know are responsible, level headed people, and I wouldn't even know if they were wearing a kirpan. Personally, I'm okay with it as long as it's not like 3 feet long. But what I do have a problem with, is if some dumbass "converts" and sticks a knife in his pants and walks into...

If this new CADETPAT jazz wasn't so damn expensive, it might be a good idea. When I was in cadets, we did maybe only 1 excercise per year which called for some type of concealment, those were the 48 hour capture the flag games we called patrolling. Is that worth spending over 100$ on the uniform...

Well, I see you're pretty involved. I would highly suggest joining the reserves when you become of age, and get some insight on not only the CF, but the duties of officers in general. Last year, when I was in grade 10 and not in the reserves, I was thinking the same thing you are, how great it'd...

- People who drive slow in the fast lane, and vice-versa - People who can't say my last name right after I've told them +3 times - Hippies - People who yap on their cellphones at the show, on the bus, etc - Guys with shag cuts - People who use WAY too much cologne, aftershave, perfume, etc -...

Guess she graduated from here. ;D

During my SHARP training last weekend, the instructor refered to colored people as "people with a different skin pigmentation", because he said during a previous session, a person got offended by using the term "colored". ???
