    Asthma & the CF (merged thread)

    It's even less than mild. I'm not on any medication, and theres practically nothing thats been able to trigger any trouble breathing. Its been a few days since I made my first complaint about breathing when I moved up to London and it seems I'm already over it. Is this even worth mentioning...

    I am a recent enrollee of 4RCR in London, Ontario as a reserve infantry soldier. As a child (10 and under) I had trouble breathing in the summer time and occassionally used inhalers, but was never diagnosed with asthma. Since then I haven't experienced any symptoms or problems. However, when I...

    The gritty truth about Iraq

    In additon to Sgt. Rudy Reyes playing himself, the real Sgt. Kocher appears in Generation Kill. However, he does not play as himself like Reyes. He plays the role of Sgt. Barrat and also serves as a consultant to the miniseries. Why he plays a character other than himself is beyond me; it must...

    The gritty truth about Iraq

    So far I think this is an excellent show. After watching the first two episodes I was prompted to pick up the book. It was a really good read, and reccommend it to anyone who has enjoyed the show.

    Interview/Medical In a Few Days....Question

    In my case, I did my CFAT and PT first thing in the morning. After a lunch break I did my interview and medical and was told that I was eligible and suitable for the CF. Although I am applying for a position at a reserve unit in London, I currently live in Toronto, so I was processed at the CFRC...

    I just arrived home from the CFRC in Toronto and all went well. Did my CFAT and PT all before 11, had lunch then did my medical and interview. It also only took 5 minutes for the interview. I guess the interviews are just less extensive for the reserves. I hope I hear back soon as there are only...

    When I was claiming I was new, I meant by frequency of use, not how long I've been registered on the forums. I only post every so often. I still however value your advice as both you Loachman and George Wallace, Directing Staff of this website and as current or former members of the CF have...

    Now that I've got the help I was "spoonfed" from you. I no longer see a reason to sit here and argue because like MedTech said, it's not a good idea to do that with Directing Staff. Therefore, I'll thank you for the links....and the advice. The only point I was making was that as a person of...

    I have no intentions of being rude. I simply came here asking for help and was treated without respect, so he deserves none of mine. Having said that, he was still able to provide many useful links which I do appreciate. I just wish that for Directing Staff, they would be able to be a little...

    Well if you feel it was a waste of your time, then that's your problem. I didn't put a gun to your head and ask you to reply. Nonetheless, your links were helpful. However, as a stubborn 18 year old kid I find it hard to appreciate it when your help is followed by complaints about wasting your...

    Well VM, I had managed to type in those phrases into the search button, and came up with nothing specific to my inquiries. Which is why I was asking if anyone could point me to a thread that answered my exact questions. Thanks MedTech. I applied to the reserves since I'll be in full-time...

    The beggining of a long journey

    Hey there everyone. Just thought I'd share, like many others, my personal story and the goals I hope to one day achieve with the CF. As long as I can remember I wanted to be a pilot with the CF. Unfortunately those dreams we're cut short when I was 15 years old. Like my parents, I inherited...
