Hey Steve. I'm sorry you feel that way. ???

Love the FN in the profile photo, by the way.

Just cool your jets,listen,be quiet and you will be fine. I remember Col Clarke and Col Bell-Irving as new 2nd LTs.Actualy I was there when Clarke was a Cpl before he went to Royal Roads .BI was my Plt Commander and as we didn't have enough Warrant Officers I was his Plt 2I/c as a Sgt.

Listen to NoNeck and Daft and Balmy( who is not either but a great guy for an Officer) and you will learn a lot. Oh and when you have to close the Sgt's mess find a dedicated driver you will need one.

Hey Steve. Advice well received.

On a side note, my close friend and long time mentor was an Infantry Officer for 25 years. One of the things he taught me was that the NCOs are usually senior to everyone in terms of experience and wisdom.

Kip/ Westcoast,

I think that at this point the key elements of this performance objective have been learned. As I mentioned previously your eagerness is admirable and I don't wish to snuff that out.

There is a lot of really good information on this site...there is a lot of crap as well! Your task as a budding young whistlehead is to go through the posts and learn what you can, lurk a little and don't post! Actually that's pretty good advice for your first year in the Regiment!

I would suggest that if you have direct questions on certain subjects, use the PM function. There are soldiers on the site "that have been there and done that". If you have questions on the Regiment feel free to PM me.
