CDN Aviator said:If you didnt know already, they created these courses called BMQ and BMOQ to start teaching people stuf they need to know. Even after that, the CF has created something called a "career" where people learn things when they need to know them. You may even be surprised to learn that some members even pass on such knowledge to new people from time to time. Even more shocking is that people managed to learn all this before army.ca existed.

The course I finished in NOV, we spent 5 weeks in farnham all together.

jeffb said:Well then I'm glad that I'm not doing the reduced course. I can't imagine why less training would ever be a good thing.

WaitingTime said:You won't be in a hoochie, below -10 C, they put u in a 10 man tent. Well, the BMOQ in January will be the first BMOQ. The last course that graduated in December was the last group of people to do IAP/BOTP. The only thing I would pray for during field exercise is to have healthy feet. Blisters won't be pleasant when you have to walk a few km every few hours.
