Thanks for the insight everyone! For those serving as Res MP, I might send you an PM regarding that. So, since Res MP's only get CL3 and aren't badged, do RCAF Res MP's receive the CL9 training and badging? (If so, I might have to look into the Air Forces. The Army has always been my main...

I tend to check the website, and I don't remember that blurb of information being there the past few times I've checked (a few months ago). I usually write everything down too, and didn't have that in my notes. Is the website known to be outdated? It's kinda shocking that outdated (and possibly...

Hi everybody, I hope I'm posting this in the right forum. I'm interested in MP Reserve, and have a few questions about it. I've read around that Army MP Reserves don't get their badge after completing training, as the training isn't the same as the full time counterpart. Apparently the Army...

Hmm, that link was good insight, but I'll ask in the other forum as information always changes. Thanks for the heads up!

Ah, my apologies. I was confusing that with the colonization of Manila during the 1700's. :) I'll edit the post.

Why wouldn't you be able to get your Green Card? You could try for other EU Military's also.

This is the Canadian Army Forum. Not US. But here is a good link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_militaries_that_recruit_foreigners "United States Armed Forces - Permanent Residence/Green Card" Here's some weird facts. I believe the Philippines recruits foreigners from the US, and...

Hi everybody, I hope I'm posting this in the right forum. I browsed around and saw the MP section, but it didn't look like it was for questions. I'm interested in MP Reserve, and have a few questions about it. I've read around that Army MP Reserves don't get their badge after completing...

Thank you. I've sent him a PM.

Are you sure? The forces.ca site says that MP requires "a community college diploma in Law and Security Administration, Police Foundations, or a similar program from a recognized Canadian community college or CEGEP. " http://forces.ca/en/job/militarypolice-75#education-3

Hi everyone, I have a few questions that myself and a few others are wondering in regards to careers in the Army. To generalize this, I'll use myself as an example. I'm 21 years old, and am a graduate of Computer Systems Technician (2 year course). I'm looking into careers in the Army...

Hi Guys, I really appreciate all of the tips and hints that you all have provided. Mushroom, thanks for your insight too. I guess I'll have to see how it plays out. I "hope" to have BMQ completed before I would return to school (like over the summer), but I'm not opposed to doing it during...

Ah. Thanks for clearing that up Robert.

Hi Hatchet, I understand that the allowed time could change. I'll continue to check and hope for the best. I also understand that I'm not applying to McDonalds. I'd never apply there anyway, heh. My VISA for China is from August 15th to January 15th. My flight tickets are from August 15th, to...

Hi, Thanks for the heads up. How long do you think the delay could be? (I know that's a terrible question.) I noticed that on the Force's website it mentions the need to complete a "Security Clearance Pre-Assessment". Is this part of the delay that was mentioned? I noticed that it's only for...

Hi Hatchet, Thanks for the heads up about the swim test. That's very re-assuring. Regarding my trip to China. Would the delay be caused because of the country (China) or because I'd be out of country for around 5 months? Do you think it'd be possible for me to complete a portion of the...

Hi, Since I was in college for Computer Systems Tech, I managed to over hear a lot of dumb statements from classmates. Here are the best 2. And by best, I mean worse. 1) Classmate: How do I plug my laptop into a project? Me: Shouldn't you know this already? You're in 2nd year of Computer...

Hi, The Forces' website does state "Reservists can leave the Canadian Forces at any time with no obligation". Source: www.forces.ca/en/page/paideducation-96 I'm not entirely sure how "true" that is. I've seen around on the forums that you have to be signed off by various people. (Which in...

Hi Hatchet, Awesome answers. Thank you. In regards to the swim test, what do you mean when you say its reg force? Do you mean that there's no swim test in Reserves? Is there any way that I could try to shorten the delay caused by my teaching internship in China? You mentioned that me arriving...

Understood. Thanks. I'll speak to my doctor too. The medication he prescribed me was a low dose, and was a "trial". Just to see what the effects would be on my body and mind.
