    Pre bmq

    I'm not sure if they still do SHARP training toward the end of the course or not, but it sure does make you sleepy. If you can manage to catch some sleep during a lecture but you don't want to miss out on any of the interesting (not interesting) material, then brush up on your S.H.A.R.P...

    Vintage Webbing

    The running joke was that it was old. Obviously it was not from the 1940s, but rather sure as shit looked like it was compared to everyone else. Thanks for sharing that :)

    Vintage Webbing

    *Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, it's 5am and I just want to make this post rq Hey everyone, it's been about 7 years since I've last been on these forums. After reading through all my old cringe-worthy posts, I came across one that that made me laugh... My "1940 webbing". When I first got...

    BMQ personal kit search

    Not true. I recieved my gerber when I recieved my kit.. I had no military training whatsoever. The gerber came in handy, though. on my bmq, i had to wear my 2IC's tac vest because my unit didn't issue me one and the 1940 webbing I recieved up in meaford on my bmq was low-standard so my 2IC let...

    Starting my journey

    Clearly in his first post, he stated that he 'drooped' 30 lbs. Drooped meaning that he didn't quite lose it, but rather it began to droop away from his body. In his second post, he finally concluded that he dropped that 30 lbs that was drooped, present tense as drooping, from him. Don't be...

    Any favourite BMQ memories?

    I had a Bdr on my bmq that would make us do pushups everytime you called him a corporal (two chevrons lol). anyway, we were down at the ranges one day and i called him a warrant. I didn't mean to, we just finished discussing about the warrant, and then the Bdr told me to do something, and I...

    Body Piercings

    I had my eyebrow pierced, and I also had a vertical lip piercing. I took both out before I handed in my forms for the military. They've been out of my body for roughly 8 1/2 - 9 months and I'm totally happy I did it. I look back on pictures and wondered why I found them so cool! I liked them...

    A great BMQ video.

    I just finished my first week of bmq. it's the long weekend and the intstructors wanted to go home for the long weekend so they gave us leave. I'd have to say, it was a definate shock. I don't want to scare people, but my course has a lot of yelling. the warrant carries a black stick with him...

    BMQ Start

    I can't decipher whether or not your post was in an agreeing state, or a disagreeing state, with mine. However, before anything starts, I just want to point out that my recruiting proccess took approximately 4 months. I was a little bit angered that it took so long, but I couldn't blame them...

    BMQ Start

    Like all of us, they, too, are allowed to be lazy. But they do try to push it as fast as they can because usually the spring time is the most hectic time due to all the younger applicants who want on a summer course. Good luck to you all, This will also be my last post probably because I leave...
