    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    we had a kid on our DP1 , it was his 5Th attempt at the DP1 ..... not 2ND .... 5Th .... Don't get me wrong , things can happen in you can fail , or get hurt , but 5Th time back in.... sometimes as a unit , you have to be able to tell someone that he might just not be cut up for it ! And even if...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    yeah I know that , and I get the reason behind it , my point is more about , why is it "easier" to become a member , if the course is "smaller" in length ??? Even if they remove some stuff out of it ( Because they don't have as much time ).  The course should actually be harder because like I...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    yeah that was how I saw that also ... usually if you need to give the training in 2 weeks other than the usual months.  Shouldn't it be harder and simply faster ?  Now on my SQ they haven't qualified me on grenade / Carlo / m72 / c6 .... the only thing I saw was C9 and radio .... The point was...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    to be honest that's what I was expecting also .... seems like it's not something that happened in my case .... neither on my BMQ / SQ / DP1 ... does it have something to do with the classes being shortened ? ( usually we had 1 month SQ , 1 month DP1 ) now we only had 2 weeks for each.  Maybe...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    the thing is , we had previous classes on the whole thing.  Then the day of the exam, we had a "revision period" which is the whole thing I'm referring to.  Then we did the test. It's not like if we never spoke of those things before.  People weren't even bothering to study or anything since...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    exact reason why I said I somehow felt ashamed of this.  I mean I always held the forces to a high standard ( maybe foolishly ).  This is one of the main reason why I applied for a CT as soon as I could ( straight out of DP1 ).  I felt like this was really not what I was looking for out of the...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    I guess that's a way to put it.  I do believe I have sometype of basic knowledge but never know I might be totally wrong. What my point was, I understand the need to not loose to much people on a class.  The need to keep the recruits up and make them stay in the army for the long run.  To what...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    we had different test in our BMQ , weapon handling , drills , etc. etc. etc. let's say the Weapon Handling.  20 minutes before the exam, 1 staff member would gather all of us in a room, Hold the test + answers in his hand , and go through all of them 1 by 1.  Giving away the answers. As soon...

    "Training to the test?" (split fm Res Hand to hand)

    I don't know how the Reg force is.  But as I saw during my BMQ + DQ + DP1 , they basically give you an answer written on a paper sheet , tell you the copy that on the test , then if you somehow didn't do it properly , they give you back a new test, give you 20 minutes to redo and act like if...

    Air Combat Systems Officer ( ACSO )

    wondering something , how close is this related to AWS Tech ( if any relation at all ). Would someone who's AWS Tech be somewhat familiar with some stuff as an ACSO ? or that is 2 completely different trades?

    Component Transfer ( CT ) - Reserve to Regular

    he's to busy to read , he posted 3-4 questions in one post ( saying he didn't have TIME to search the site ). Someone told him that some of his answers could be answered here , so he basically copy/pasted some of his questions without bothering about anything.  reason why I don't bother...

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    so since you have NO TIME to search, I have NO TIME to answer you. You are looking into an officer trade yet you come up like we are here to spoon feed every move you do ? If you have no time to even search for answers , you have NO TIME to join the army , simple as that

    PMQ's Basement

    PMQ's are cheaper than most apartments , if I can afford an apartment , yes I can afford a PMQ. As far as the need goes, we could spend days arguing if someone really needs something in order to get it.  I always took a 2ND room, for personal issue ( if my family comes visit , friends needs a...

    How many LG-1s are in service with the reserves? And where?

    here is what I hear from my PRes Arty unit. And remember I'm only a small Gunner ... so What do I really know ? More and more people are going to the mortar side of things.  From what I've heard from different SGT and MBDR , we are going to become some small mortar unit. The C3 is still...
