According to my local CFRC to become a Combat Engineer all you must have is your high school, other skills that are looked upon as being valuable in this trade were also Truck driving license, Boat operators certificate, heavy equipment operators certificate and the list goes on. The skill I have but am not certified in is Heavy Equipment operator. I can operate a variety of equipment, just not legally on a job site. So here I am, patiently waiting for the trade of C.Engineer to open, while I wait I have decided to upgrade my credentials by going to my local Heavy Equipment Operator school and get proper certification so that I can become certified as well as come time to apply to the forces I can have merit in relation to having such certification. I know that in the forces, specifically Combat engineers, they operate a variety of machines in the field, such as Backhoes, Excavators, Bulldozers etc.
To get to the point of my question, I'm wondering what the various opinions might be regarding what type of machine I should get specific training for? What would be the most valuable to the Canadian Forces? I would love to hear what you think rather then being told that its up to me bla, bla, bla. I'm doing various research around this question and to find out what the common types of equipment being used are, I'm looking for individual opinions here from those who would know best, cheers.
