After some careful thought over quite some time, I think I'm ready to give the regular force a go.  I do have some questions before I do though.... What's the difference between the three elements - besides the obvious air, sea, land - why would someone join one over the other. What kind of...

So I injured my achilles tendon while running...maybe started during a unit PT thing last Thursday, and more acutely injured it on Sunday.  I was on crutches for a few days, and now have to see a sports guy.  Anyway, some people said to fill out a CF98 since it may have occurred during work, or...

Hi, I am getting frustrated with my heavy rucksack on exercises compared to everyone else's lighter ones.  I'm not complaining about carrying a rucksack here, don't get me wrong.  It just that I've had comments about the weight and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. In my valise, I have 1...

Is there anyone out there doing this course? Also, I just got off QL3 Reserve Med Tech yesterday morning.  While in the field my ground sheet became deficient (zipper broken).  Will I be able to exchange kit in Meaford?

I'm just looking for anyone who has heard things from people at your unit or who might no how to deal with the PT on a Reserve QL3 Medical Assistant course.  Is it possible to get through the course (any course for that matter) on a medical chit allowing me not to do PT running due to an injur? ...
