Hello everyone, I am a Black third year university student wanting to become an infantry officer and serve with the PPCLI. I went to the Canadian forces Vancouver recruiting centre the other day and the recruiter I talked to gave me some strange advice. He told me that

Brown...particularly hitting the fan.

And afterward, when I get busy there is a whole bunch of red around....

Oh, colour my world.

 

[Sundborg]

I would have thought brown would be more common, with all the mud and dirt.

I would not mind a officer that was not white.
I don't mine anyone being a officer.
As long as their not a idiot!



edit because I'm a dolt

I met an officer named Whyte...BTW he was caucasian (white). I met him Whyte Ave in Calgary. He drove a white car.

Get the hint?

lol Mike, you sure you're in the CANADIAN army?

 

[Sundborg]

He displayed a Canadian flag so we have to at least give him credit for that 

 

[chrisf]

In the immortal words of bugs bunny... "What a maroon."

 

[beach_bum]

I have to say, I'm still dying to know what strange advice the recruiter gave this guy!!!!!!

 

[PARAMEDIC]

LMAO  ;D fontaine lol

If you are concerned about race coming into play look at the BOTP or BOTC video its posted somewhere around here..... there is I think a black Sgt. giving officer rec orders , so safe to say there are possibly some black officers in the army...i have seen a Lt. at my CFRC who is black so rest assured they will fill the quota if they need to ( > lol im gonna catch greif for the quota bit) 

but like mike dorosh said " its all green" 

remember that and you should be fine....now how bout completing the post coz we all are dying for the climactic finale
