Cool. I wasn't sure if the just the family was able to go to PMQs while the member was training. What you said makes sense. And yea, I feel for you buddy. That has to be tough. Thanks again.

Yea, I am not sure which MOC's were in the percentile i put up earlier. As mentioned, I would call your recruiter and verify if the trade you are hoping for falls into that category. This advise should also be applied to you stabmasterarson. Since you and your family are from the west coast...

Thanks AJP, good site. I called the CFHA and they said that those who are married with children go to the top of the list with the other family goers. I also have found out that I won't be heading out to Esquimalt right away after all. I have to head back to the concrete fortress. New rules...

Haha. Spot on.

Hey Rob, just FYI, I am in the process right now and I was told by several recruiters, both NCM and Officers, that for the next little while at least, depending on how hiring goes, the west coast will take around 90% of the Navy recruits, in certain fields. I would ask your local recruiting...

Figured that was the case.... :(

Oh, I was also wondering if there are going to be any Chinook variations that will require AESops.

Hey Crow, I am just wondering what the Math 1030 is equal to in the civi world. Grade 11, 12? Also, as I was asking in my last post about the CFAT, could this course be used to satisfy the educational requirements of the CF?

I would say that this explanation makes more sense. This just raises another question for me to take to the recruiting office however. Perhaps one of you fine members could grace me with the answer first. Can the CFAT results be used to determine a candidates suitability in lieu of the education...

They do, but the basic requirements for entry to NESop do not require the same level of math that AESop does. I was told that this is due to the fact that there are so few people applying for NESop vs. AESop, so in order to attract more applicants, they dropped the standard. And my mathematic...

This is sickening. I am a Correctional Officer in BC and I know that there is no reasonable excuse to deploy the taser in this instance, unless there was a reasonable threat to the officers life. The use of force circle goes as such. Presence, Verbal instruction, physical instruction, chemical...

I am waiting for a job offer right now. During a conversation with my friend over the internet, when informed about my decision to re-join the CF, this was his response. " Yeah, the freedom of civi life really sucks... I hate being able to do what I want to do, when I want to do it without...

Sweet! Thats even better. Looking forward to watching.

Hey folks. Thanks for the feed back! I have been made aware that AESop is now offered for direct entry, however, I do not have the math skills to be considered at this time. I don't want to say that I am settling for NESop, because I am not. I truly believe that for the bare minimum, I will be...

Not to burst any bubbles but BMQ does not make you combat ready. I am thinking that the show will follow SQ and BIQ. Both of these intense courses are for combat training. To me, this sounds like a great doc, as prior, there have been none to my knowledge for the infantry recruits. Not to many...

Hey everyone. I am looking for some intel on the PMQ process for Esquimalt. I am currently merit listed and want to get my ducks in a row before I ship out. I am will be joining under the Recruit school by-pass plan. Also, I have been told that my initial posting will most likely be to MARPAC...

Hey all. I hope someday, I will be able to say, I am a AESop! I am currently on the Merit list for NESop, and am very excited to get back in to the forces. Oh, and I have made my desire to re-muster after I am 5s' qualified clear to the recruitment section. I was wondering if anyone knew what...

Hey Jamie, I just found out today that I am merit listed for NES OP. I was just wondering how the training is going/went, and also if you happen to know or could find out when the next few courses are expected to start. I am entering via Recruit school by-pass as I left the Army in 2003. I...

Thanks so much. That is the info that I was looking for. Hope that I can avoid Saint Jean, but what ever, more important to get in asap. Again, thanks!

Icic. I talked to the CFRC Victoria and they said that 10 years was the limit. I got out in 03 so who knows. Just outta curiosity, where did you hear this.
