I'm in on the 12th as well, MARS.  There's 35 or so of us, if I remember correctly, going to that BOTC.  Oh, and for those interested, there are a total of 67 DEO positions available for MARS, so if you make the fall NOAB, they're still looking pretty hard.  :) T

Thanks, Che.  I found that church, it was impressive.  I couldn't believe the graveyards, they were pretty fantastic as well. And holy shit, those frigates kick ass...  The day sail sure improved my knowledge of our (my?) Navy's capability.  :D T

Well, off to the NOAB tomorrow morning.  I'll have all of Sunday to putter around, are there any "must visits" in Halifax?  Not the Brass Rail type a la Toronto, but I'm looking more for architectural excellence, churches, etc.  T

I'd be more willing to handcuff the mother.  I'm sorry, but if a child acts like this at *5* years old, you have to look to the parents. T

The apparent propensity for "parents" to allow their children to run amok seems to be increasing at an alarming rate.  Spend 1 hour in the emergency room at any children's hospital for a demonstration of piss poor parenting.  Don't get me wrong, I don't think kids should be hit, spanked...

Spooky...  I emailed them, `cause I know the select is in there...  ???  It also gave me full weapons..  (Well, that three way weapon, anyway...)  Remember when Nintendo released the Nintendo MAX?  8 way control pad?  What advances in technology!!  ;) T

Er, up up down down left right left right b a select start.  I just tried it.  :D  God Bless Contra. T

No.  And stop wasting bandwidth.  READ The recruiting requirements, or do a search on drugs.  You obviously have a severe lack of judgement, not something that bodes well for a military future.

I haven't the foggiest, to tell you the truth...  kincanucks? T

Were  you merit listed from a previous board?  i didn't think the Sept BOTC wass decided until the June selection board... T

I wasn't debating that...  M&C's a movie about, well, the Royal Navy...  :) 

Um, the historical navy salute isn't really a salute at all.  The "old" one you are talking about has the hand in almost a loose fist, and touching the brow with the side of that hand...  (Horrible description, but if you want the true historical salute, watch Master and Commander) T

Almost fell over laughing...  Yeah, we (blushing) went their first...  Thank god the Rail knocked that taste out of our mouths (NOT a euphamism)  >:D T

Wow...  You're sure selling the MARS MOC.  ;)  I'm looking forward to the challenge, to be honest.  I know it has one of (if not the) highest failure rate in the CF, but I'm willing to take that challange.  The rewards would be worth it, IMO. T

Well, so much for a plethora of responses...  Er, so much for A response.  :)  Anyway, if there are other potentla MARS wannabes out there, I just go the call from the recruiting centre, I'm going to the NOAB!  If there's any MARS officers herethat wouldn't mind me picking their brains over a...

Hmm... I've noticed that to since I started running firefox...

It's apparent from your posts that you've missed one vital source.  Believe it or not, the Canadian Forces have their own website!  (shocking, but true).  Check out http://www.recruiting.forces.gc.ca/engraph/home/index_e.aspx , and once you've done that, researched a few MOC's you might like...

Sure it was...  Like I said, nice "story".  ::) T

Shoe in for Survivor: Canada or Fear Factor...  T

How do you figure?  Come on, it's Britney!!  2 husbands, one of them a drunken fling, and now she's knocked up by someone who apparently doesn't know what a condom is.  She'll be single in no time... Keep those hopes up.  Reminds me of something I once heard about Brit.  I mean, she slept her...
