Heh, yes. I am joining the distinguished ranks of the rubbernecks (otherwise known as the Comm Res Ops)

I will save the life story for the "Personal Stories" section, but I will say that I thought the position suited me well from reading (what little there is about it) and speaking with current and past members of the Canadian Forces. I am very into amateur radio, and have always found SIGINT to be an interesting field.

Anyway, I thank everyone for all the advice (both those who came before and asked the questions I had on the tip of my tongue, and those who have put up with my inane questioning -- both online and in-person). You have helped me tremendously  :salute:

Now I just pray I can make it through the MEGA with all limbs attached  >:D

I gave the recruiting center a shout, and apparently I've been accepted to ROTP! I don't know  anything other than that, but I should be getting another call within the next little bit. The main thing I'm confused about is that it sounds like I might be doing BOTC and all that before the aircrew selection boards. If anybody could offer me a bit of insight on this one that would be great, but I'll find out more soon I hope!

You and I might be on the same NOAB. May I ask what the doctor's note was for?

It's for some prescribed medication I was on a few years ago that raised some eyebrows during the medical.  If my doctor thinks I'm good to go, then my chances are good (according to the medic who did my medical).


Hope to see you at the NOAB!  I'm very excited :)

The name's Rohan. What is your name? We have another guy who might be with us at the NOAB, he's on the forums too - goes by the username Galahad.

I had to get a doctor's prescription myself after my medical -- my vision turned out to be not V1, so I needed a prescription for glasses.
