Its possible all of us may end up on the same course for 27 July. If so we can create a Facebook page but lets wait it out

I think for every one of us there are like five people who aren't on this website, or at least aren't registered but just guests.

Good for you. I have my medical and interview next Thursday which is making me feel like I'm on Cloud 9; not many people, especially Infantry Reg Force, have heard anything so we're all incredibly lucky. That being said, our hard work and dedication has paid off and will continue to pay off come...

I'd recommend searching and readin the topics in the "Armour" sub section of "Combat Arms". Also, contact a recruiting center or show up in person for inquiries about the Infantry and Armoured trades

I'm not sure. You may want to ask that question in the "Ask a CAF Recruiter" section or check out the CAF's website and look into Armour

Would you guys say morale is dependent on which branch you are in now?

You're right and I apologize. I am speaking out of school with regards to what the CAF teaches and doesn't.

The nuclear bomb as a deterrent is ever present and will have a new chapter when Middle Eastern countries acquire them but the likelihood of them being used as weapons is unlikely. Several of the posters here have written about their time in the CAF during the Cold War where tactics, equipment...

My goal is make it my career till retirement but I'm not sure how my body will be in ten years as I want to be in Infantry

You guys may be onto something as Obama was once asked what country keeps him up at night and he responded: "Pakistan". I think for many like myself who didn't grow up during the Cold War the idea of WMD's are like a relic. I think many people nowadays are so used to the idea of "lone wolves" or...

If any country were to allow WMD's to fall into the hands of terrorists' the entire world would want their head on a platter. I'm certain if it were to happen it would have already. I like to think the FSB, CIA, MI6, and all the other intelligence agencies in the world have a uniform interest in...

How much of it is "I've devoted so much of myself, both in time and blood, that I can't see myself starting over"?

True but double dealing with the Taliban and facilitating WMD's are two very different things.

Not if Jack Bauer can help it... But seriously advertising that they can acquire weapon's from the Pakistani smells like BS to me. Like I stated earlier no nation wants to be the one whom allowed a WMD to detonate on another nation's soil via terrorists. WMD's are our boogieman that's...

I was under the impression Pakistan's nuclear arsenal was under the command of an authority other than the conventional military. I think the threat of CBRN attacks is over exaggerated but always a possibility. No nation wants to be responsible, whether it be allowing one of their scientists' to...

It is the time spent for your rose that makes your rose so important, right? I didn't use Google to translate that as I am brushing up on my French

The past few years have not been kind to the CAF with reports of sexual misconduct, low morale, old equipment with no replacements in sight etc. On top of that with the mission in Afghanistan over and recent missions leaning towards the Air Force and Special Operations what keeps you in the CAF...

I think one of the most interesting questions about the USSR and Stalin is if even if Hitler had not initiated a Second World War would a comparable conflict have taken place between Communism and Fascism in Europe?I think a Cold War was inevitable between the dominating ideologies in the West...
