    Basic?

    I read somewhere on army.ca that BMQ is the easiest military course you will ever get.  Having completed SQ, I must agree.  The only real shocker is getting used to the etiquette of military life.  Marching everywhere, learning the rank structure, and each of the courses is all simple stuff. ...

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    Regrettably it's true. It is not uncommon to be set loose upon the gym and told, "pt on your own time it's now 8:30am, be formed up in the hall at 10:45am." I have then seen the platoon marched off for lunch, then formed up again at 1pm and marched back to the gym.  Not often mind you, but it...

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    Week 6 completed on SQ.  We have only four days to go with all major testing behind us.  OMFG the field portion was tuff.  I nearly lost sight of my long term goals while I was going through it.  On the otherside,.....I'm glad I didn't give up. Bring on PRETC,  we're all looking forward to a...

    BMQ and seperation anxiety

    So far I've completed BMQ and am currently in my last week of SQ.  All is "rollin" well.  Easily, the most difficult part of both courses has been being away from my wife and three children.  I have been VERY fortunate in that, being from Ontario, I've been home almost every weekend that I've...

    Tee Shirt Mottos

    Our Seargent would tell us in basic that when we swet it was "the evil coming out" The front of our platoon shirt simply read..."Getting the Evil Out". we thought it was very "to the point'. ...but i love the previous "we learn arabic so you don't have to"........most excellent.

    C9 ammo box problems

    Just finished my last week in the field for SQ in Meaford.  I enjoyed the priviledge of the C9 for the last three weeks.  The ammo box fell off on me repeatedly.  One day I counted seven different times.  I know I've got much less experience with the C9 than you guys but, I have to add that...

    Need somone to hold my hand on this one.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb for a moment here and say, if you're the kinda guy likes to work harder than everyone else, be trained harder than everyone else, and work longer than everyone else, and then at the end of the day want to do it all over again, go Infantry. If you like to be somewhere...

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    I started this thread in November back when I was in week 5 at St.Jean.  Back then it seemed like the course would never end.  But a funny thing happened,  it did.  We made it through all eleven weeks and moved on.  For those who are reading this and are going to BMQ soon or are working your...

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    Weekends are priviledges that must be earned, however I would say it is likely you would be free.  Having said that, your performance through the week certianly does play a factor in just what kind of freedom you are permitted. But to answer your question, in my experience, it is "likely".

    Too Easy "The Mega" week 5

    for those who don't know, the previous post is just a tiny sample of the jargon you can look forward to as subtle forms of motivation.  Often preceded or followed by opportunities to improve your physical condition.  And when you're done don't forget to say "Permission to recover Master...

    About the running part

    If it's proving difficult, walk the distance first and time yourself, then just make sure you beat your time each time you come back (and always complete the distance).  You will improve.
