"I would second the advice that's already been given: While you wait for the next step in your recruitement process, don't sit still. Get physically active, get into good physical shape. Volunteer. Get involved in leadership activities. Do it for yourself and to improve your application."

I am fairly good shape play sports and go to the gym regularly but I am wondering say if I do a course do I call the recruitment center and tell them I've done a course or that I am volunteering or any of those kinds of things??

Nice I'm the short brown guy, I won't be too hard to find.

Anyways this is embarrassing before I am leaving I'm already asking more questions, what kind of suitcase do I bring to hold everything? I am swearing in on the 10th and was only notified two days back so I didn't have time to really ask about those kinds of things. Also if anyone has tips on what to bring and what not to bring that would be sweet.

Although his profile doesn't show it (because he is also a Subscriber), mariomike is a Mentor. I'm going to stray off topic for a sec to plug the Mentor program, because it's key to keeping this site running smoothly. It allows folks like mariomike to get some official support for their efforts. In a nutshell, the program is designed to "set the tone" of the site in a positive, helpful way. All too often we fall back on rude, abrasive and confrontational responses, and that too sets the tone but in a very negative way. Once things go down that path, it can be near impossible to bring them back.

Enter the Mentors, who work hard (usually behind the scenes) to set a positive, helpful and polite example. And yes, we are 'hiring' more Mentors! If you're interested please see the link I posted above, or contact me.


Cheers
Mike

Ace of Spades, you and I will most likely be on the same course as I'm awaiting for your guys to finish your SQ on starting my A.W.S Tech QL3 course. I'm flying down to Bordon on the 31st of Oct. See you then.
