Name's Eden and I'm with the Westies.  Cya next week.

Ya, I called our orderly room yesterday and they said I'll most likely get my joining instructions on around the 27th of this month.  A little bit last minute.  :)  I'm with the Westies.  There are a few of us going on that course.

WOW...the "hair sweater" and "Chafed nipples" visuals will now haunt me everytime i log onto here.  Anyways...I'm on course this summer and I know we can only wear the "fine" clothing included in our kits...ie. The Sweatsponge OD T-shirts, the Burlap Socks and our oh so constrictive underwear. ...

Hey I'm going to do BMQ/SQ in Chilliwack this summer on July 3 through Aug. 24.  Anyone else on that course?  What reg. you with?

Hey Falange, I was told that based my availability this summer I could do my BMQ/SQ and most likely by end of summer or early fall, go straight into my BiQ. (Infantry)  So it is possible, but like boehm said, it depends on your trade like boehm said.  I think it may also have to do with your...

LOL I think I might be starting to see your point.  I do love the army.  :) I want to go to Afghanistan next year, that is if we renew our contract, and maybe after that I'll change my tune a little, but for now Seyek, you make a good point, I do love the friggin army.  :) At my senior citizen...

Thanks for the replies guys.  Who knows, I'm pretty new to the Army and might want to keep my civil aviation and military service seperate anyhow.  We'll see I guess. Thanks again Danno

Do the powers that be not see that criminals seem to have more rights than the victims in most cases?  WTF is wrong with the justice system today?

Hi, I'm a private with the Westminster Inf. Reg. and was wondering if anyone could tell me how easy it might be to move laterally from the Army into the Air Force?  I'm only a reservist now but a civil pilot as well.  I understand that my pilot's license means nothing to the DND as far as Air...

Hey everybody Probably been discussed already, but does anyone watch the TV show "Over There"?  I heard it was dropped by FX networks because of poor ratings.  I find this hard to believe.  Seems to me that most US citizens would love to see their troops on TV.  I thought the show was pretty...

Hi, I've recently been accepted into the Westminster infantry regiment.  I was hoping to make the January city BMQ, but was told that I may have missed the deadline, and will have to go to CFB Wainwright for the condensed BMQ SQ and infantry modules....ok....so my question is....until...

I'm from Abbotsturd and I ordered thre of the CADPAT support our troops magnets and a bracelet for my son from Cannex, and they took as long as ottawa took to do my security checks :) ...however...they did eventually arrive.  I wasn't in any way affiliated with the CF at the time I ordered them...

I had my interview and physical a month ago and the capt. that interviewed me said the file would go out immediately.  Hope that was the case. :)  Anyways, I hear B coy is a really good unit as well.  If you're going into that unit, chances are if I don't get into the next BMQ, we'll be in depot...

Ya I can't wait for the call either.  I've been talking to a guy named Cpl. Smith at the Westies recruiting office and he said that the BMQ for Jan. is filling quick and the deadline is coming up soon.  Hopefully Ottawa lights a fire under themselves and gets both of us set up so we can join the...

Thanks for your comments guys.  All kind of eases my mind.  Dietcrich is right, I don't think anyone should want to just get by in any stage of training.  I will have more peace of mind knowing that there is no reason for failure, because before I started I exceeded the minimum requirements for...
