BMQ, Aldershot July 20th!

[Talon16]

A couple of questions:

I recently was informed that i ship out July 20 for Aldershot BMQ.

1. Is anyone else going to this course on the 20th?

and 2. What can I expect at BMQ, I've heard alot of mixed reactions...is it really that bad?

Hey, if everything goes according to plan I should be going on this course.
I got my call this evening, I said I could go...now I'm just waiting for to get some general information about the course.

As of right now I have no clue what to expect...

Can anyone let us know what to expect?

I can. But, I think I'll just fall back on the standard: SEARCH function. It's your friend. There are a plethora of threads dealing with BMQ on this site. Read 'em.
