So they are starting platoons at st. jean and borden on the exact same day? odd 

 

[George Wallace]

What is so odd about that.  Two different locations can't by chance do something at the same time.  I just sucked in a lung full of air.  Did you do the same?










I know that somewhere, someone has also decided that it is time to go get a beer.

looks like I'm in too...CFRC Toronto has had me first in Borden, and then St. Jean, but wherever I am, green is good, and the people that I am with are the best...

guess that they're trying to freeze us out in Quebec...I was south of Quebec City last Feb, in -30 degrees C...no sh*t...

thanks for the info Rafterman...that helps explain it...and kramer...

good luck to us all...

I didn't wait for the call, once I heard people in my group were getting switched, I called my file manager and she confirmed I was going to St. Jean.

I suggest just calling your file manager.

 

[Veovius]

I got switched as well, from Borden Jan 15 to St. Jean Jan 17th.

Can we wear non-issued knee pads during BMQ?

 

[aesop081]

No.

Can we wear non-issued knee pads during BMQ?

If they fit under your uniform without being noticeable, then yes. But I doubt you would get away with wearing them all day long, surely you would have to adjust throughout the day or etc, making it a hassle that noone would want to see you doing.
