Nah, That‘s very true though. The whole ‘hurry up and wait‘ thing. But I did a military co-op course in high school and did the bmq for it. So I have a file open and all that admin stuff ready. He told me that I would have to wait a long, long time but in the mean time get in shape, then I...

Hi, Signed up yesterday at the recruiting office in Hamilton Ontario. Just wondering who the lucky souls are, who are also going where I‘m going. The recruting told me I WILL be going around May for basic; interview in April. I‘m going PPCLI, didn‘t think I had the option. Not going to pretend...

Hi, Yesterday I went to the Recruting Office yesterday in Hamilton Ontario. I talked to a recruiter about joining full time for Army - Infantry. He told me I have until around May. I should have my interview in April and until then, run my balls off, work out and get ready. I will be joining...

Oh I‘m very sorry I haven‘t memorized all the ‘badges‘ and medal systems. lol. I just love how guys that are in the forces refuse to let people make mistakes. ;)

Very inspiring words. I mean that. Don‘t look back. I don‘t think I ever will. I have always wanted to do something and not be forgotten and be remembered. You look at how many people just die every day and nobody remembers because they are just another face sitting behind a desk or working at...

I think we need to up our medal system. I think the states do have wayyy too many awards and medals for stupid stuff too. Like when you go to basic, you get a medal after you are done your m16 course..That‘s pretty dumb. I think we should have some sort of medal that shows what we have done and...

Ya, I understand totally about it‘s not about how much people like you or not, it‘s not a popularity contest, and I know and understand that everywhere you go in this life, there will be people that like and dislike you equally. It‘s just stressful, 20 years old..haven‘t been out on my own ever...

Thanks, that did help. You are right, wanting to is enough. I want to make a career out of this, so I would keep signing 3 year contracts? Like keep extending my contract? That‘s better I guess. I know you are right too though, worst case scenario part, even when I did a few months on that BMQ...

Hi, I‘ve just turned 20, finished high school and looking towards a full-time, until retirement career in the military. Army - Infantry. Thing is..I don‘t know if I am really wanting this or not, as if I am brainwashed maybe into thinking it‘s the only option for me or whatever. To be honest, I...

Are you applying for reg force ninja? or reserves?

Greg, You sound brainwashed like me haha. I am 20, done high school too, and always have wanted to be infantry. I got a small taste of Army life when I took a military co-op course in high school. BMQ. It was pretty fun, I loved every second of it. I too am going to reg force, Army - Infantry if...

Thanks, haha, I think I will try to push the car around for a few months. Good ideas...How long after my application is in should it take to get me in? I have read tons of complaints on this site about how long it takes for reserves, but never heard anything about reg force..Does reg force take...

Hi, I am 20, done high school and soon to be joining up full time, Army. I was wondering, after my application, how long does it take and in the mean time, what is a good PT routine I should get into every day? Any ideas at this time will be great. I was thinking run 1.5 hour in the am. early...
