    Officer Selection Board

    Thanks... and good luck to you too.. I am sure I am driving my wife nuts as well... but not as crazy as other people asking "Have you heard yet?" It was almost as bad as the week before our baby was born.. ugh. Ah well... 1-2 weeks ain‘t so bad... 3-6 (while not ideal) is still passable.. I...

    How many push-up do you have to do?

    I had something of a similar problem with my wrsit. Got an X-ray, but nothing was wrong. They gave me an NSAID drug to take for 10 days (Vioxx was the brand), which cleared up the joint pain within 24 hours. After I went off the drug, I went back to my normal routine. After a couple of...

    Questions regarding the recruiting process

    I am going in DEO and the procedure for me was teh same as the last 2 posts. After they accepted my app., they booked me for a time to do my tests, et. al. There were about 6 of us, we all wrote the CFAT, and one of them was asked politely to leave, as she did poorly on the test. After that...

    They gave me no indication of what time frame for BOTP. I was told that they were even selecting candidates for the July BOTP, but I am unsure how true that is. What occ are you applying for?

    How many push-up do you have to do?

    I thought the 90 degree thing was your knees... not your feet being right to your bum. shows what I know.. :-) When you did your push-ups... did you have to do nose to the ground or did you just have to make a 90 degree angle with your elbows?

    Signaller‘s - Training, Promotion, Retention, Employment

    Good day all, I have been searching my arse off, and I still can‘t find an answer. I was hoping you all would be able to help. Besides Kingston, where could a potential Signals Officer hope to end up in Canada? And what regiments are attached to the locations? I have been able to find out a...

    Micro Armour

    I was into miniature wargaming for a few years (Warhammer 40,000), and it is a lot of fun... I got out of it when my daughter was born. Didn‘t want her chewing, or even being near pewter and plastic toys that are easily swallowed and very pointy.. :-) It‘s a time consumibng hobby, and can get...

    Dates for Basic -> Public availability?

    Well... I got the impression that this was for the summer BOTP... waiting until September *would* be killer... (although a little cooler)... But, hard to say.. As for MOC, I am going in as a CELE officer.. Apparently this is a "distressed occupation", so that may be the difference, but who‘s...
