I'm starting July 2nd and I haven't received my joining instructions yet either.  I was told that I'll get my joining instructions, list of stuff to bring, and flight info soon....

Alright I'll sum them up for you guys:

Grab your kit, head to nearest Greyhound (or preferred) bus stop, buy a ticket, hop on the bus, and go.

Edit: if you are going out of province it may be prudent to include a plane ticket too.

Alternatively:

Go to your unit Orderly Room during working hours.

Do not leave it until the last minute in case you then have to arrange to draw something from Clothing Stores or QM.

Talk to the Chief Clerk and/or Operations Warrant Officer (or whoever is working there when you show up).

Ask them for your Joining Instructions.

Read the Joining Instructions there, and ask any questions before you leave the Orderly Room counter.

Whoa!!!! I know you might be joking but that isn't the thing you should be telling new recruits, 1 they probably don't even know where they are supposed to do, 2 there are some that will do what you just told them to do, and 3 all they have to do is call there orderly room and ask for all there paper work. If you show up for course with out a route letter and travel claim there will be trouble...

So for you two that have asked and the many of you lurking out in cyber space waiting for an answer the answer is "Call or go into your unit orderly room and they sort you out. Don't go with out your paper work"
