This is probably the only TV show that I watch religiously. I have both Seasons on the computer, and watch them all the time. It's about time they brought in a military show with an actually storyline that you can follow from season to season.

I can just see the sonar operator on one of those now; PING-- "Ice." PING-- "Ice." PING-- "Whale." PING-- "Ice" PING--"U-boat......hey wait a minute...." ;D

Wow, talk about the robbing the wrong place at the wrong time. I would have paid good money to have seen that!

I can't say that it's 100%, but it's most likely in the 90's.

Hey, on top of the excellent idea of using a .22 for honing your accuracy, you may also want to think about doing some skeet/trap shooting to practice hitting moving targets. You can get a real decent 20 gauge secondhand from your local gunshop at really reasonable prices, and 20 gauge birdshot...

Trust me Rajan, you will still have the butterflies AFTER your interview, but then it will be cause you're waiting for "The Call". Hell, I check for messages every time I take the damn dog out for a leak!!!

***DIRECTING STAFF*** If I am outside my own lane here, please feel free to delete this post, and PM me if there's a problem. I've gone back and read over "Sig"s posts, and took a peek at his almost non existant profile, and I'm sorry but I gotta call bullshit on him even being in the CF. Just...

Good point. They will ask you about the Pro's/Con's of your choices. I had Artillery (Regs) as my third option because the recruiter said to put a third one on my application on the off chance that my first two (1-Inf/2-Armour) fell through. Because I hadn't really thought much about going for...

QUOTE “Students of history will know that all major conflicts are resolved, ultimately, through peace-oriented discussions. . . . And that's what needs to happen here.” UNQUOTE Mark, while I agree that at some point we will need to discuss treaties, agreements, etc. now is not yet the time to...

Not to mention helo extractions.

Congrats Testify, mine said it could be as early as 3 weeks and probably no later than 6 for me to get the call!!! Now I just gotta slug out this security job for a few more weeks......

I just posted this to another "pre-interview jitters" type question. "I just had my interview last week, and really, you have nothing to worry about. Mine was conducted by a Navy Lieutenant, really laid back kind of guy with a good sense of humour. A lot of people on here describe it as one of...

I just had my interview last week, and really, you have nothing to worry about. Mine was conducted by a Navy Lieutenant, really laid back kind of guy with a good sense of humour. A lot of people on here describe it as one of the easiest job interviews they ever had. I was skeptical of this...

I just had my medical the other day, and was asked to have my family doctor double check my blood pressure (had to much coffee before my medical, damn you Tim Hortons), and to sign off on the reasons for a medication I was on a few years ago because it has several different uses. The person...
