  Yah man I know what you mean I just went through that. I got my call though and trust me, when you get your call the wait will have seemed worth it. What are you signed up for?

  So after basic I'll be training in Meaford if my information is correct. You're saying that I should call up Meaford to find out when the next SQ course is starting up? And how does one do that?

  I'm just wondering if during basic there will be any access to computers for personal use. I pay all my bills online and I'm wondering if it'll be possible to do this in Borden. If not I'll have to make other arrangements. Any insight will be very helpful.  :salute: :cdn:

LOL Don't be hatin'! I'm just trying to develop the sense of humour that one must possess in the army. And being the "impertinent little twot" that I am could you please tell me how I would go about getting in touch with my unit orderly room?

Or maybe in order to be a part of this trip I have to book in advance so it'd be nice to know. And trust me I'm worrying about finishing the course. But thanks for your enlightenment. I can now tell my family I'll be attending this trip.  ::) :cdn:

When I was going through the recruiting process I called probably about 15  imes over a 3 month period. If you have a question that isn't being answered on these forums than call and ask your recruiter. Like Fry said, it's their job. As long as you're not asking questions like, "when do we get...

  Speaking of vacation times, does anyone know for sure how long Christmas leave is? My BMQ finishes December 16th and I am wondering when we'd return to work. The reason I ask is that my family is planning a trip and they need to know if I'll be able to attend or not. I talked to my recruiter...

   Judging by how long it took for me to get "the call" I think you'll be waiting until at least the beginning of October. I made the July 18th selection board and got my call on August 31st. So I waited 1 1/2 months before I got the call. Once the results are out it still takes a couple of...

  HAHA.... how does he plan to radio in coordinates to his artillery or air defence if he can't even do simple math? " Echo Tango, this is Lima Oscar. I need close air support at (insert coordinates). Drop fifty!" "Ohh god run boys run!!!" It burns, it burns!!!"

 It's good to be motivated like you are but like someone else said, you need to pay the consequences of your previous lifestyle. You're not doing any favours for yourself or the army by lying to them about your past drug use. Why not just be honest, wait the required amount of time, and then...

  Thanks Kincanucks.  :salute: :cdn:

   What'd you do? Ram a tuba up your ass? Hope I never share a barracks with you..... if so then "soap on a rope" is in order.   :salute: :cdn:

Although you may not have flashbacks from smoking a "doob", I'd love to see your response when a Sgt. gets in your face and the only thing you can say to him is "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wha? huh huh."   As for the alcohol, DT's are not a funny thing...... but your career in the military will be!!! ...

For those of you who are even pondering the idea of lying to your recruiter about past drug use, I have this to say to you. Sit down and take awhile to think about what you are doing. The recruiters refuse applications of recent drug users not because they don't like "druggies", but because they...

Damn man! and I thought running 3 km twice a day was going to be an asset. Stupid, stupid me!  :P

Whats up boys.... I had a change of plans today. I was originally going to St Jean for my BMQ but today I found out that I'm actually going to Borden. I'm a little disappointed but I am greatful that I've been accepted and can live with this rearrangement. I'm lookin forward to going and hope to...

I live 2 hours from CFB Borden and I'm being sent to St. Jean, Quebec for my BMQ. I'm going 031 Infantry. I've talked to guys on these forums who have been accepted for the same trade and are being sent to Borden. You go where they send you. They won't take into consideration what base is closer...

  Hey guys. Does anyone know why they are sending Infantry recruits to Borden, Ontario and St. Jean, Quebec for the same BMQ dates? I'm from Ontario and not that far from Borden and I'm being shipped to St. Jean, Quebec for the October 3rd BMQ. I'm not complaining as I'd much rather go to...

  I'm goin Infantry. I read that you're doing your BMQ in Borden. Are you sure about that? What are your dates for Basic?
