    CAP Aldershot

    I will also be doing CAP in Aldershot this summer, along with 2 other guys here from RMC. How is everyone finding their way to Aldershot? Some of us got flights, but i personally will be driving the 17 hours from Kingston. Does anyone know what would be a good cheap place to stay for one night...

    Jump Wings

    Either these standards are outdated, or they have been changed. I did the course as an army cadet in summer 2005. The standards were 7 chin ups, 1.6 kilometers in 7 minutes 30 seconds, and 32 sit-ups.

    RMC - Basic Training / Injuries

    Just don't hurt yourself. But otherwise, they will recourse you for next summer. If you hurt yourself on your first two phases of summer training i.e. IAP and BOTP, you will probably end up in the Personnel Awaiting Training (PAT) Platoon. PAT platoon is basically lackeys. They clean lounges and...

    ROTP going to IAP This summer

    There is a little bit of truth to IAP being less than 9 weeks, but this is a "special" case for "special" people.  ;D Something new is being trialed with the people that have finished Prep year at Campus Fort St. Jean. We learned alot of the stuff they teach on IAP here during the regular year...

    Changes, needed fixes in Cadets (merged)

    Ok, theoretically, they give you C7s. Whats next? You'll ask for grenades. If they give that to u, then you'll want to be issued tac vests an cadpat to hold your stuff. If they gave you that, you will start asking to play with vehicles. If they keep on giving, you will keep on asking. Pretty...

    Changes, needed fixes in Cadets (merged)

    Exactly. As for Armyboi, first of all, I appreciate it but there is no need for the formality of "sir" in here, we're on an equal footing. The average Joe off the street will not bother checking what organization a cadet on the street is, and will most likely complain to his local MP about...

    Changes, needed fixes in Cadets (merged)

    Why? So we can confuse the public even more to the point that they think little cadet private Tommy marching down Yonge street on Santa Claus Parade will get sent to war? I think the Lee-Enfields are quite enough. We should be thankful that it hasn't been taken away yet. Don't get me wrong, I...

    CF Pers and national political involvement

    I think I remember something about members are not to be members of any Political party as must show that we are obedient of the party in power no matter our politics. I'm not sure if volunteering would count as that though. From seeing the Sympatico MSN news section, the election will be...

    James Blunt - Musician

    I've never been called a Zipperhead in the context of my ethnicity. But either way, I am proud to be both. Even the short part...we aren't too bad lookin' though if you look hard enough. James Blunt...heard his "Beautiful" song so many damn times on the radio it makes my eardrums bleed. Not to...

    Hey, if you were the "token asian college kid" not invited to a FPS bash, you'd be too.  ;)

    Basic Para 2005

    How bout that mods? Is that an acceptable compromise? I think its an OK idea. :-[ aww, buggers So does that mean there is a chance for myself to try for the Para course again? Would it be in the five years while I'm at RMC or in between? I would definately love some info on that if...

    Basic Para 2005

    kcdist, I found your post absolutely, positively, undoubtedly true. I kinda found that out the hard way too when I arrived at where I am now. But that's ok, I'll know what not to say for next year. But yes, they still do have cadets jump out of CC130s. I believe the course that just happened...
