Alright, thanks for the advice! 50% sounds very reasonable. Do you think I'll be able to get them in time for BMQ in two weeks?

Already tried, they Haven't seen anything. I think I need to have it replaced, but I have no idea how much it costs. Is it possible to have only one glove get replaced?

Hey everyone, I just finished my first BMQ weekend as a reservist and got issued my kit, however I didn't get a ride and I ended up having to bring all my equipment home via public transport. Somewhere along my trip, I being the idiot I am managed to lose one of my mortar gloves, or whatever the...

Hey everyone, my BMQ is starting soon and I was wondering if anyone knew how hard the PT is on the first few weekends? How far/fast do we have To run? I'm worried because I'm really out of shape, I can run maybe like 1.5 km before getting tuckered out and this is at a jogging pace, I can't even...

Meh maybe but I guess it is a good deal, got the entire set for 13 bucks so I might just keep it to use on my normal shoes

Thanks for the help everyone! Unfortunately I was about all of 5 minutes too late to cancel my order from Amazon so looks like I'm stuck with this kit, but I guess even if I don't get the right colour I at least got two brushes and a bag for 13 bucks. Thanks again!

Man now I'm worried, but what do I do about the polish kit they asked for?

Oh those actually look pretty cool  ;D, thanks for the response!

Oh, we have to polish normal boots? I thought we would just have a pair of parade boots to polish? It says to come ready with a polish kit, do you think I should keep black or go with brown? Or buy a tin of brown polish on the side? Edit: silly question but what's an LOTB?

Hey everyone! I'm about to start weekend BMQ and it asked for a shoe polish kit, so I just bought one off amazon. It was on sale and it was amazon's choice so I figured I would give it a shot, does anyone have any experience with this brand and is it better than kiwi? Its by moneysworth and...

I still have no God damn clue whats happening...

Alright, thanks for the help everyone!

I heard that it takes around 2 weeks for me to get paid, is this true or can i get paid immediately /get an advance so I can pay for a cab?

We get paid to go to the kitting?

I would appreciate it if someone could give an updated 2018 answer to this, I was wondering the same question. It would be a lot easier if I could bring it home by bus. Would it be possible to arrange two trips to get my stuff home?

Sure the CF is looking for recruits, but they are in no way as desperate as the media makes it look. Don't think they'll start accepting everyone that walks into the recruiting office.

I don't fully comprehend what you mean, and why you were accused of cheating, but WHEN were you accused of cheating? When I did my CFAT they had that testing area locked down, and the only reason they would accuse you of cheating, was if you cheated. What sort of "cheating" did they think you...

Nope I haven't gotten an email like that yet

Would the unit orderly room know about my swearing in since I'm not enrolled yet?

Hi everyone, I'm kind of panicking right now, I was just accepted into the Reserves last week and my recruiter said my swearing in would be this Friday, and he said he would send me an email with all the details last week but I didn't get an email from him. I tried emailing my recruiter and he...
