[SoldierInTheMaking]

I'm hoping to get on this August 10th course date...I was merit listed a bit over a week ago, and I should be getting an offer this week, so maybe I'll see you guys there.
I'm coming from Sarnia, Ontario and going Infantry!

 

[Cridden]

Got my call this morning for Aug 3rd BMQ. Started application on Apr 1st, and was merit listed on May11th. Excited to start. Going in as cook.

 

[Tempestshade]

Haha good if we are on the same course and out doing training, volunteer to be a cook so I don't have to haha

 

[Cridden]

Hell ya I'd cook in the field...unfortunately we'd just be dishing it out Might see if I can cook on the weekends..lol...cant lose my knife callous, took me 15 years to build it up

 

[bradlupa]

Did you get your course number and if so what is it?

 

[Rinker]

15 years of cooking expierence...Wish you were on my course. ;D

 

[Cridden]

I havn't received my paperwork yet, they said it will be mailed to me...i assume my course number and other relevant info will be with that.

 

[LiquidSquid]

Hey all, just got the offer and will be on the Aug. 16th course; going in as Comm. Research Op, with any luck.

Just think - all you Aug. 10th guys will look like seasoned vets when I show up a week later, lost and confused.

 

[AJSP]

Cook! Beans and Wiener specials? I like my steak mooing and still bleeding please. .

All joke's aside congrats on getting a quick acceptance.  I started my application last November.

There's hoping we will be seasoned vets 7 days later.    Hopefully we will be able to pass on the knowledge quickly enough for it to do some good. Team work is the language folks.

...To Canada Day 
  and teamwork 

 

[AJSP]

Yes yes I was.
  I know that in 7 days in our minds at the time we've learned more then we ever could again. But In reality it is not much. It's just a small step into a big world.

  Happy Canada Day army.ca!! :yellow: :dileas:
