    Medical Rejection: How to Appeal? [Merged]

    Before this topic (likely) gets locked, a few points for you: - Search the forum, all of these questions are answered, and there are plenty of application process examples. - Background check will probably take at least a couple of weeks, or more. But there is no one right answer to this. It...

    Missing and Defective Kit

    Mosullivan15, you just started in the fall, correct (from your other posts)? By "missing kit", do you mean kit you've lost, or kit that wasn't issued to you from the beginning, whether by mistake or due to low stock? If it's kit that wasn't issued yet, you can just go in with no paperwork...

    Missing and Defective Kit

    Yes, go to Denison to obtain/exchange kit. If there's a lot and it will take over 30 min, call ahead to make an appointment. Otherwise just go in. Denison Clothing Stores info: Phone: (416) 633-6200 ext 3846 Hours (call to confirm before you go): Tue, Wed: 0900-1500 (closed 1200-1300) Thu...

    What element to pick

    Army! But I'm biased... ;D But I'm sure it would depend on many factors, not the least of which would be potential posting locations. Presumably, you would try your best to get posted near your husband. So I would talk to Recruiting about that, to see how realistic this would be.

    Questions about joining the Reserves

    Application process normally takes quite a bit of time. If this is something you want, get in touch with the Reserve unit you want to join, and then go talk to the recruiter at the unit to get information on all requirements and to find out when the BMQ courses are. Then go through the (lengthy)...

    Combat Engineers

    Hey guys, as things change over time, I'm looking for the latest info on combat engineers, PRes in particular. - To achieve the rank of Private-Trained (or Sapper), a candidate requires successful completion of BMQ, BMQ-Land, and DP1 course. Correct? - To achieve the rank of Corporal, are there...

    Combat Pants Shortage?

    Yeah I'm sort of similar to that. I'm around 31 waist, so 30 and 34 are not great but no way around it other than losing a few pounds maybe. When pants are too long though, it creates that excess bagginess below the crotch and looks sloppy. Anyway, no biggy, will just wait until my size is...

    Combat Pants Shortage?

    I'm too new to comment on staff pro/de-motions. :) But yes, it's frustrating. I was told there has been a shortage for a while. As for military surplus stores, I haven't seen them sell work uniforms. Not sure if it's because it's illegal, or they're sold out because they too are experiencing a...

    On that note, get a car charger. Useful for life, not just medical appointments. ;)

    Combat Pants Shortage?

    So I couldn't get the right size combat pants at my local unit in Nov/Dec last year. And again couldn't today. Low stock. Is there a Canada-wide pants shortage right now? Are there any other ways/places to get the pants that fit? Thanks.

    It will be fine. Just call to rebook, as you were instructed. Good luck.

    Packing for Basic [MERGED]

    In addition to what was said above, show up in jeans, white tshirt, and running shoes. I'm not sure if that's a universal rule, but that was our instruction when we started. Although I don't think it's terribly important, especially if you haven't received specific instructions to do so. Also...

    Interesting point, but it's still anonymous, so no assassination yet.
