Will Connaught Supply.....

[armygurl09]

Do any of you know if Connuaght will supply your sports gear and shoes ? Because my core did not give us any of that. This is my first year going to camp (basic marksman) and I have no clue  if they will supply or not...
Thank-You

At camp they supply you with all required PT gear, as well as Work dress (combats for army)

I know at my old corps we issued these items to the cadets before they went to camp. However, I also know that we supplied these items to the cadets at the summer training center who had not had them issued at the corps. They training centers will have these in stock as well. (as far as I know)

Slightly off topic, but you can imagine my dismay when 2PPCLI arrived at our new building in Shilo and I first read the professionally printed door sign reading "Corp of Drums"

P.S.  One year later and it still isn't fixed.

they have to supply everythign that you need., if you dont have it theyre not going to make you walk around the camp naked. they want uniformity, so everyone will always be wearing the same things, and have the same things.

 

[Burrows]

So if one person has to be naked the WHOLE company must be naked.

You COULD look at it that way, or you could think of it as you get issued kit, so thatyou have everything that they have.. lol

Now I'm wondering what blackdown would be like a a nudist camp.  ick.

 

[armygurl_557]

I was just wondering how we went from what they will supply at Connaught to what Blackdown is like as a nudists camp..

I think it must have been Kyle..

He Creeps Me Out..

Lets get back on topic please.

 

[MCpl ???????]

thats because when i worked there i was sick of dealing with people who would and could loose kit even if it was tied around their neck.

and you would be suprised at the number of CIC officers who would try to screw you if you said no to something they wernt even entitled to.. 

besides... last example...

Cadet QM Staff

x2 Wo
x2 Cpl
x2 Pte

Number of cadets we supplied equipment and uniforms to: roughly 800 or so..

If you had our job you might be a little testy as well. If you were nice to us, we were nice to you. when you went in there DEMANDING that you be issued something, well we would put you back in your place.

 

[MCpl ???????]

sorry i didnt mean to insult anyone but i was just telling everyone to not get on the qms nerves

 

[armygurl09]

Thnk you all for the information
I have another question ...What should I expect at camp (connaught basic marksman)..

 

[Burrows]

Uhm...lots of shooting?

 

[armygurl09]

[Burrows]

Expect, to do some PT in the morning as well.
