BMQ course for me starts April 12th. Im excited, its been a solid 8 month wait :)

I enrolled a long time ago. I got the call for my position just yesterday and I will be heading to St.Jean on April 12th. However, the only problem is that I do have 3 plantar warts on my feet. They do not bother me, and they do not hurt at all. Im trying my hardest to solve the problem by going...

Ex-Dragon. What was wrong with my post for it to be deleted?

Thank you Pat and Kratz, you answered my question

Hi. If sailors are posted on a Coastal defense ship are they on it for 2-4 years? How far can the ships go off coast? No offense, but isin't it kind of boring to be posted on one of these ships?

Thank you everyone for the replys! I Really hope that I get that call!

I applied to be a Boatswain months back. Does anyone know when more Boatswains will be accepted? Im getting anxious. Ive looked on the forums and I can not find any information. Recruiters said I MIGHT get the call in april..But I really want to find out for sure! Thank you

Hi. I looked throughout the site for more information on the Boatswain trade however I do have another question. How many Boatswains are usually on board a Frigate? How about a Destroyer?

Ive been told that being a Bosn in the Navy is boring? We'll at least compared to other trades like Infantry and such..is this true? Do Bosn's fire small arms weapons a lot? Do Naval Boarding parties take action a lot?

Hi guys. I'm really considering to be a boatswain in the Canadian Navy. How does it compare to an infantryman? Do you fire many small arms weapons? Can you become a small arms specialist in the navy?

Hey everyone how's it going? Yesterday, I passed all of my tests. Medical, interview, etc. (They didin't take my urine however, but I still passed the medical?) Im in a bind. I know that choices are up to me but its getting hard to decide. I passed all of my tests for the reserves. Im in a...

Hello. I have a question. This may have been brought up before but I have had no luck using the search function. Im 17 years old and I am going to join the Military. If I spend some time in the Reserve Force will my rank/status be carried over to the regular force? Also, if I decide to join...
