Well there have been a few changes in recruiting recently so that could be one of the reasons. What did you apply for? Best of luck.

How about... THE LIBERAL?!  ;D

Make sure you post your final draft once it's all said and done. I would be, after reading through this thread, very interested to read it. Good luck on your speech.

I thought the guy in the USMC ad was gong to lose his arm and turn to the camera to say "I can put my arm back on - you can't... you're not a marine"

The fact that he uses the death of soldiers for his twisted political agenda is disgusting. Support the troops? Jack Layton, you know nothing about support. You know nothing about anything which says something about everything about you. You are not in charge, you have nothing to do with any...

I think that's one of those regretted "Gotcha!" moments where it totally fails...  :blotto:

As a future gunner myself, what were your least and most favourite experiences serving with the Artillery? Beautiful photographs. I have some from Alberta that you may enjoy being a photography enthusiast. PM me and I will send the links. Cheers, :cheers: Patrick

I hear that often as well. They say it like I've no idea what joining the military means and somehow always revolves around only "killing people and being brainwashed". It's truly a sad state. They also have that right and as a soldier it is your duty to defend that.  :salute: :cdn:

Snaggletooth..  ;D

When Warriors Weep Brave young warrior where have you gone Into the hills to mourn your song The breaking heart knows no ache like that of the warrior when it breaks The raging waters know not how deep the tears of the warrior when he weeps From umber hills the plaintive yell the heart of...

:rofl:

May angels lead them in. RIP  :salute:

It's been said elsewhere in the forum but 'the military makes weak relationships weaker and strong relationships stronger'. Life and love is a heavy load. You can only do your best to carry the weight. Good luck, be safe. Cheers, Patrick

So how are we going to copy a system that funds their military in the trillions? Sure we'll have the bodies but what about the training, equipment, payment and everything else that goes into a soldier's career. Maybe David Blane can pull a dozen LAVs out from behind a picnic table for us...

It's a lot easier to recruit people when there's hundreds of millions more of them...  ::) United States — Population: 295,734,134 Canada --- Population:  - 2006 est. 32,623,490 

Too true. There is a far greater amount of new users that contribute consistantly that should not punished for the poor actions of others.

What about a time limit? Say, a new user cannot create a topic, or even post if you wanted to be really serious, for a variable of days (1-7) after registration.

I believe that was the "Life in the Canadian Forces" video. It was quite sad to watch as he was one of the primary recruits being interviewed during the video.

I just got the call this morning for my medical and interview on the 23rd. My CFAT and Security Check are completed so these are my final processes and I'm almost there.  ;D
