Got sworn in today and got all my flight arrangements etc... Starting at St. Jean on July 2nd. 12 days to go before I fly out!

I got my call on Monday for me to be sworn in on the 18th (I start BMQ on the 2nd or 3rd of July). I had my last day with civilian work last friday, and am now taking some time off before I head out to BMQ. It is pretty freaky to think a month from now I'll be in training.

This is interesting.... I have a July 2nd start date for Reg Navy, but I always believed that I was going to Quebec (not that it matters). But everyone who has posted with an early July start date is headed for Borden. I did get a package that included a letter from the recruiter which stated...

A side note: I found out my BMQ date by chance. I called the recruiting office to make sure that they had gotten some medical forms I had sent - when they pulled up my file they told me I was starting July 2nd. They said they will call me back around the end of May to let me know when I go for...

Hey there, I just wanted to say keep at it. I also used to be over 300 lbs at one dark point in my life and now I'm about 235. I found out last week that I'm scheduled to start BMQ the 2nd of July (NE Tech(Communications) and I'm working very hard right now to make sure I pass the shuttle run...
