Okay, so I have a little tip for all Infantrymen coming to battalion out of DP1. Specifically out of Meaford, because this isn't an issue with the Wainright training process. When it comes time for CQC (The hand to hand combat portion of your training) Unless you have a real injury, don't skip CQC because you are afraid to fight your peers. This is a continuous issue from Meaford with new privates, coming to battalion without your CQC qualification not only makes you "DAG" red, but it also makes you less of an essential solider. Trust me when I say, CQCB is alot easier in Meaford then it is in battalion. If you come here without CQC you will do the course in battalion with people getting re-qualified, which means it wont be other privates you're fighting it will be SGT's, Mcpl's and Cpl's. So again unless you are seriously injured when CQC rolls around, don't skip it.
Good luck with your training process!
