Sorry for the late response, week 6. We half completed it but we are heading back into week 6 as well. How come?

Thank you very much for the answer. I'll show up and try not to be too much of a bumbling idiot! Happy New Years! Eharps

Hey guys, I am a new recruit, half done my training at CFLRS, and I am currently at home on Christmas leave. I live in Ottawa and was hoping to make a trip downtown to visit the Cenotaph, Hill and then possibly go to a Legion to talk to some vets on the holidays. I was just wondering what the...

I just finished my copy of Fifteen Days by Christie Blatchford (I had to take a break for BMQ) and that was a very good read. I don't even know how to explain how that book made me feel, reading what everyone has gone through in Afghanistan, but man that book tore me up. I couldn't read it all...

Ah that's cool man. I'll see you there tomorrow. I'll be in around 1600, shaved head, bright green under armour bag, if you see me come say hi

Yeah they will tell you at your swearing in, hope for 123E! haha Yeah I was in a good routine for working out and running, but I just moved recently and that messed me up. I think it will be a bit of a shock but I can pick it up.

I hope to if I can make it through. I've been training for a while but I'm still nervous. I am around the same as you, 6'1 and 232 lbs with a heavy muscle build (and a small soft layer from my best friend/worst enemy, beer)  :cheers: For now, I am excited to get started and see how I perform...

Good to hear brother (or sister). We will have to meet up when we arrive before the training gets rolling, will be good to have a familiar face to get started with. Where did you swear in? *Edited my ignorance.

Anybody else from 123E here?

Hey Secbell, I am going to the BMQ on the 9th and from what I have heard is there is no point. You won't be allowed to use your car, other than weekends after indoc, where you actually get the weekend off. At that point, Montreal is the only city you can actually go without a leave pass, and is...

Awesome man, see you there! From Pet? Interesting, maybe you will get posted at home! (I assume artillery is based there)

Cool man! Getting excited?

this gave me a good chuckle. Also, my word is balance

I am also going infantry. I'm hoping for the same thing with regards to 3 PPCLI, but we will see how it goes. I assume you want that because you want the to try to get on the Basic Para course? Where are all y'all coming from? I'm in Ottawa. Cheers, Evan Harper

Thats great to hear! I assume you are also Infantry, judging from your name?

I completely agree with you. I, sadly, think however that we are in the minority of this kind of thought in Canada.

I think this is likely the case. Tonight will be very interesting, but not as interesting as the next 6 months after we decide who is taking the reigns.

I have had one song on repeat for about two weeks now. The Humbling River by Puscifer. Fantastic song
