Hey,
I am new to this forum (Signed up today). I came here to ask a couple of questions, because I researched google a lot ... and couldn't find the answers.
I am currently 16 years old, and plan to join the CF reg. forces at 17 next year, after graduation.
I wanted to know ;
- When do you start accumulating leave ? ( Does basic training count for the 2 days / months ? )
- How much total training does a Infantry member undergo before being "qualified" ? ( I know there is 2-3 months basic training, 20 days SQ, but don't know if there is more. )
- How much time before joining should I go see a recruiter ?
- How much waiting time before Aptitude test and Basic training ?
Also, I have a trip planed to Europe since a while for next year. I would like to know if I could use leave to go to this hockey trip.
I want to join the CF on July 18 next year (15/07/18) , and would like to leave to Europe in April for Easter 11 days. So about April 9 in 2016. (16/04/09).
According to what I understand, (Not sure), Reg.Forces accumulate 2 days leave per month is service, so I would have served about 8 months in the military, for a total of 16 day leave.
This is my main problem joining the CF, don't know if I will be able to go to this trip. ( Already paid .. )
Thanks.
