    andré Arthur parle de l'exercise de thetford, grrrrrrrr

    Avec ce qui est arrivé à Jeff Filion, je trouve ça surprenant qu'il continue à chier sur le monde comme ça. Il a pas peur que le CRTC le ferme?? Ou bien qu'il se fasse virer après une pour$uite en diffamation?? En tk, c'est vrai qu'à Montréal on ne tient pas ça des bouffons comme lui...

    Went to my testing and interview on May 5th

    This happened to me too. When I did my medical exam, my BP was about 145/85 so the med tech made me rest for about 15 minutes and took the pressure again. It was still high so he gave me a sheet to be filled by a doctor. To have this filled, I had to give a blood and urine sample and get my BP...

    Vision Questions Megathread, Categories, Problems etc.

    When I did the vision test, I only had to be able to read the first line on the chart to be V3. ie. the big E on top... not very hard. If you can't read that, you are V4. And if your prescription is worse than +-7, it's V5 and that means no enrollment...

    Vision Questions Megathread, Categories, Problems etc.

    No, V5 is not legally blind although it's not good at all... To give an example, I have a myopia of -5.5 and I qualified barely for V3. V5 is given when the candidate does not qualify for V3 AND the refractive error is worse than 7.0 dioptres spherical equivalent in the better eye. So -8 would...

    what career options are available after you complete an Arts degree

    used to be egs, I'm myself a "young person looking to join the CF" and to become an officer so I did a bit of research into the different entry plans and required degrees for the different trades. What I posted is the different MOC that I'm sure you can join with an arts degree. Your comment...

    what career options are available after you complete an Arts degree

    With an arts degree in the army element, I think you're limited to the combat arms; armoured, artillery and infantry officer. In the air force, there is pilot, air navigator and aerospace controller and in the navy MARS. All the other occupations require engineering, computer science, medical...

    Academic transcripts - Questions [MERGED]

    I'm dealing with CFRC Montreal and they want high school, cegep and university transcripts but photocopies of the originals are accepted. And they wanted a photocopy of the degree too. A good thing I kept those old high school papers...

    Vision Questions Megathread, Categories, Problems etc.

    You can't be legally blind in the combat arms! Of course not... You just said that legal blindness is when someone has a corrected vision of 6/60 or worse. Even with glasses, this person can just read the big E of the chart. This doesn't meet the 6/6 and 6/9 standards of corrected vision for...

    Recruiting Videos

    This was discussed in this thread: http://army.ca/forums/threads/16907.0.html And someone posted direct links to the files, they are about 50-60MB and run for 30 minutes. Very interesting. They seem to have removed the links on the recruiting web pages. Maybe because it was using too much...

    Tu as été classé comme V4 ou comme V5??  J'ai lu quelque part un de tes posts où tu dis que t'as -6 et -7 comme vision. J'ai moi même une assez forte myopie de -5.5 dans les deux yeux. J'espère que je vais avoir V4 car j'appliques comme officier des transmissions et V4 c'est suffisant. SVP pas...

    CF,Police,RCMP

    I have a little question for you. Is the level 3 clearance you talk about is the top secret security clearance? If it is, it's a good thing the CF don't make the candidates wait for it before the BOTC. The process is long enough already...

    Is there anybody here waiting for the Oct-Nov DEO board meeting results?

    031 is the infantry NCM occupation, not the officer one. It looks like CL84 is going to be an NCM. This thread is about DEO officer candidates... From what I heard from my recruiting center, the next BOTC is in january and the deadline for the board is November 2.,

    Questions from a newbie

    2.) I was told that was acceptable. I did the test last week and it was not allowed to stop during the push-ups. So I suggest you be able to do at least 19 before you go or else you just might fail.

    v0max question

    As it was said in other threads, the VO2max will be higher for young and slim people for the same heart rate after the step test. I did the test 2 days ago and I have the exact formula for the predicted VO2 max: (1) Factor A = 81.4  ( don't know what this is... ) (2) 2 X age (3) weight (kg) (4)...
