I don't even see how this is democratic. Canada voted for the conservatives to be in power, yet the parties can form a coalition and get the tories out of power. Who are we, Russia?

Another interesting note, FGH engineers are the only combat engineers in Canada with black berets (armour). An interesting point. Hopefully the recruiting process moves a bit faster for you. Looking forward to seeing you at the armoury.

I haven't heard anything about the 31st since I've joined, but I have only been in for a few months. We are part of the Fort Garry Horse, epaulette (rank slip) say "FGH", called FGH engineers. Now when that will change if ever I'm not sure, like I said I'm just starting out.

Nice. Welcome to FGH.

Nope I didn't, if I make a mistake I say no excuse, I'm not going to try and get out of it.

Haha, well maybe you are correct. From what I saw you get yelled at for making a mistake in drill or when in inspection and you get yelled at you try to make a legitimate explanation you get yelled at more. Either way, take the yelling and get through it.

I started mine, its been okay. Going to my unit is better, you don't get yelled at but all well. Keep your eyes and ears open and pay attention in class. Bring a pen and paper! And a felt pen! Very important. Drill isn't fun, expect to get yelled at lots. Fun times. And remember, don't quit...

Some members of my unit gave me their numbers to call if my course instructors gave me permission to go on parade nights. I start BMQ this weekend so I will find a appropriate time to ask. I hope so, I visited my unit and want to get right in there and learn more!

Anyone ever do this? I'm hoping I can attend parade nights while on my BMQ course. I was just curious if anyone here has. Thanks!

I was sworn in on September 9th and start BMQ on the 12th. I would rather do it all at once but I guess weekends will have to do. Met my unit and it looks awesome. Seems like a great bunch of soldiers.
