I agree. I would definitely use sports as a good team building activity. And its fun! Who can say no to a good game of basketball/hockey/whatever?

But the whole point is trying to maintain unit cohesion. Although winter camping might not be a substitute for real training, at least it can give you a little taste of what would actually happen, just without as much equipment. And hey, its better than nothing! Just my  :2c:

Have you perhaps considered a local reserve regiment? It might benefit you more because they take things a bit slower (doing weekend training and such). Plus you won't need to be separated from your wife nearly as much.

Hey Jake, I feel for you man. I got all my kit on Thursday and was supposed to leave on BMOQ yesterday when I received a phone call saying it was canceled. I guess there's nothing we can really do except make the best of it. At least there's still the one night a week (in my case) where the...

Haha well I guess I have just been hearing more about now since the change in government.

I would have guessed with all the anti-US sentiment in Japan right now the last thing they would be doing is buying American planes.

Currently infantry is closed until April, so you can either wait or apply for a different trade. If you use the search function I'm sure most of your questions can be answered, as they have been asked many times here.

Well I'm pretty sure (feel free anyone to correct me if I'm wrong) that you won't be able to do every single course possible. You have to realize that some courses, like sniper, are a specialization. That is to say you train to be that specific role. There are plenty of options to choose from...

Hey come on, he's just nervous haha. Then again who wouldn't be for BMQ.

I was actually also curious about this as I have shin splints and was wondering if they did running everyday. Mind you I'm going for the Reserve's so I assume its a bit different.

My dear ol'mum works in that building. Poor guy, what a way to go

I had my CFAT on a different day and just wore jeans/t-shirt to that. I did have my medical and interview on the same day, I just wore t-shirt and shorts to the medical then changed into buisness casual (dress pants/shoes/shirt) Good luck!
