Do I find out if I'm 1 or 3 RCR at the end of DP1?  And so this means I'll be in meaford waiting for a course once my contract starts and not just start on course? Also, thank you for your reply.

I just received my acceptance to regular force infantry.  My offer is in memo format and I do not recognize all of the numbers and some information is not clear.  Take a look and please try to translate for me. First of all it says posted to LFCA TC meaford...is this just for course or where...

GO!!!,  Instead of trying to tear me apart in an online forum, you could have just given your opinion by saying "your wrong" which in a few more words is all I took from your reply anyways.  Thanks for your input.

Infantry is in constant red

As mentioned anti-aircraft...which is taught during SQ and because the ejection port would be covered by your hip and right arm crossing over...they told us it is ONLY shot right handed for anti-aircraft.  Its one of those common sense things once you try it you'll realize.  Although there is a...

Best of luck and if its what you want than it was the right choice.

Also...just as an added note you CANNOT fire the C-6 from the hip left handed.  Yet another way we get the short end of the stick.

Thats really encouraging knowing that there is so much support for the soldiers overseas.  Its unfortunate none could be sent. But the fact there was overwhelming input is really great to see.

"On completion of this stage of training, Medical Technicians receive the professional credential of Primary Care Paramedic Level I." Refering to MOC for med tech at: http://www.recruiting.forces.gc.ca/v3/engraph/jobs/jobs.aspx?id=737&bhcp=1 What is Primary Care Paramedic Level I in...

Wow good story thanks for sharing.  Kind of gets you thinking...

If you've ever spoke to an american soldier chances are they made a comment about the canadian army...our turn.  I thought this to be hilarious.

I am confronted with the same decision...college or reg force.  The way I see it is that after college theres never a garanteed job plus you'll have debts after school or a large dent out of your savings.  With reg force (granted you get accepted) your making 50K in 5 years with 100% dental and...

I guess it is feasible that you could switch but when it comes right down to it, when theres a firing test or if I deploy I'm going to use my strong side.  I guess I could blame the release not having enough tension.  Guess I'll go with that.  Either way I think theres no excuse for such a...

Well right now I have options such as college and joining reg force as a medic (I've already submitted a component transfer) but as many times as I'd heard it before...the other Thursday when they told us to put our names in for going on tour this last time seemed to stand out to me.  Suddenly...

I wouldn't know where to start to search for a topic on this but its mostly for me to just complain anyways.  If you are a left hand shot have you ever had your magazine release press against your tac vest and your magazine falls out in the middle of an excersise?  With all the funding going...
