I would bring both, reason being, that if you use one, then you can submit it to get cleaned while using the other, but I am a bit of a neat freak!

You are right, my bad on the spelling of "just", ya sometimes people get mad at spelling of thier towns, who would have thought.

I guess it all depends on if you are staying the same trade, or like me going to a diffeent branch all together. I did have doughnuts with the SNCO's but thats just our usual Friday morning routine. To me it's no big deal, as getting OCDT is not a promotion, it's an appointment, so I don't need...

I received my offer on 4 April ish, and on my message it said Appointment to OCDT April 30th. So today was my first official day as an OCDT, you don't get your commission until after your BOTP, because you are a MCpl you should bypass IAP, I was a Sgt and I all I got out of was IAP, and as I...

Having seen (prob like most of you) the BMP 2 Fire, I like it! They treat it as... well a machine gun (I know a novel idea). I like the 1 round ranging, and then the volley of 30 to 40 rounds, yes the chance of hitting the same spot twice is low, but it (like our 25mm) is a big machine gun! Now...

It is Called St Jean, not St Jeans, although I am sure the Quebecers would love to hear you call it that! Maybe people are going, they jsut don't want to reply!

"why do you need a razor in the field" are you for real, just because you are in the field does not mean you will not shave or wash! IT"S CALLED HYGENE PEOPLE!!! You stand more chance to get disease in the field than in Garrison. Bring a small picture in a frame of your family, it shows you have...

I am sure I have heard of this before...oh yes a few years ago they were throwing around the idea of a UN peacekeeping force. it might work as a peacekeeping type force, but as others pointed out it wouldn't work as a defence force! Think of this, look how Canadians already view the deaths in...

I had no previous flight experience. I do have 4 tours, including Afghanistan. I am in an operational Regiment that is doing back to back to back to back Tank Sqn rotos, and maybe even a Recce roto thrown in next year. I wish I had time to do some Flight schooling! I was picked up! Now that I am...

Yes we are all in the CF, I have been in quite a long time, and am currently a Snr NCM, if this little jest hurt your feelings, maybe a career in the Forces is not for you as you will do a lot more hurtful things than a few little comments!!!

Ya I did mine in 99, in Wainwright. I too really don't care what courses I have to do, as its all for the greater good, you Avro and myself will meet up for drinks sometime soon!!

Congrats patrol man, I also did most of the tracking down in regards to my CEOTP. You should check the dates on the original message, because mine said I had to sign and send in the acceptance by 15 April, and there would be no extensions! I hope you don't get screwed because of a technicality...

WOW way under, I am about 160 - 162ish and I think I am very short and very close to the line! Mind you I did sit in a Griffon the other day, moved the seat as far ahead as it goes and had to move it back, so I wonder how short that person was! I also heard they measure your body parts and even...

ya why not show up too early, you might get to do cool things like "cut the grass with scissors and a ruler" or get to "hang out with your instructors in Montreal!" They already have your room sorted, and if you show too early it could throw a wrench into the plans and then you stay in transient...

ya right, because you did put INFANTRY in there I wouldn't be surprised by that offer first, but weirder things happen!

The only way you can "bypass" IAP is if they (Ottawa, Borden whoever) has asked to see proof that you have done a JLC or PLQ or whatever you crazy kids are calling it today!

Yes aircrew selection is what I was asking about. thanks.

Does anyone know when the dates are for the next ACS? I was wondering if there is a website with any info like that or if anyone is going on it, etc that would be great.

well Kincanucks, you and I totally disagree. I think it is kinda pompous to thank me for saluting your commission! If I do an extremely well job at something than fine thank me, but would you thank me for showing up for work? really it's one in the same. I showed up I saluted, no need for a...

Hey AL, Are you coming back to the Regiment this APS? If so you will be happy to know that all Us SNCO's do pt with the RSM everyday except Thurs(for Obvious reasons). We do Crossfit with the psp staff on Mon, Tues, Wed, and a ruck march on Friday. The reason being that the base commander has...
