If it makes you feel better the deficit is back. This sounds like fraud. Maybe we should throw some of these civil servants in jail.

I am interested, but that is the first night of the BMQ I am hoping to get into.

I think he mentioned earlier that he didn't score quite high enough on the CFAT to qualify for that trade.

Ufm101 : From your previous post you have already applied. Did you not talk these trades over with a recruiter?

Park, I am applying as a NCM. I am not sure if I could fit in the trades training for officer.

There is a chance it might be longer than 5 weeks. I submitted my papers in late June and I am still waiting. Hopefully it doesn't take too long.
