Depending on the context, it either means bring as much as you see fit, or bringing it is optional altogether. For example, if you look at the portion of the table where it says "Civilian Clothing Men sufficient quantity for four days" and you look at the quantity requirement for socks (which...

No worries :) I'm 19, turning 20 in August.

Tada. But you should know, this is a National Firearms Association image.

Looking forward to work with all of you, damn I can't wait. Jordan10, I have't gotten an email or any info regarding BMQ itself whether it's travelling orders or a kit list. I've found a couple of government websites that tell you a lot (kit lists, course content, daily routine, etc) but it...

I was told by a recruiter that I leave on the 19th, but from another applicant I heard that leaving on the 19th means that BMQ starts for you on the 21st. If that's correct, I guess I'll be joining you guys haha. I'm from Grimsby, Ontario and assuming all goes well, my trade will be Infantry...

Just got my call from CFRC Hamilton guys. Reg Force Infantry, swearing in on the 16th of July and leaving for BMQ on the 19th!!

My apologies, I applied at a weird time during the transition.

Did you mail in the required documents soon after you applied online?

I can't exactly tell you what kind of score you'd need for support clerk, but Infantry and Artillery would require lower scores than most from what I've been told. That being said though, you're absolutely right on track. Study hard and you'll score high enough without issue. Besides that, the...

For my aptitude test, the only thing I really did in preparation was a few free IQ tests online (surprisingly similar in some aspects). That, and I brushed up on long division (since I used a calculator all through high school, which obviously isn't allowed during the CFAT). As a result, I...

Respectfully, this still doesn't mean that video games create psychotic killers. The high school I went to (and any other school for that matter) would be a fiery, bloody ruin if they in fact did, as there really isn't a kid today that hasn't at least tried a violent video game. Dylan Klebold...

While I'll admit that the article is an interesting read, the title is a bit heavy handed. Of course, the reason for the title is more than likely the way it is to attract attention and kick the dust up a little. The object of these games is to survive. This can mean anything from gathering...

Stick with cadets, make the most out of it and if you can, stay until you age out. The recruiting process is a long one, and that's putting it mildly for some applicants. I started in October 2013 and I've only just passed the selection process and am currently waiting on a phone call with a job...

Like CanadianPanzer said, the interview is quite simple. When I sat down with the recruiting officer, he said that it would mostly be him talking. They'll be telling you what to expect, what benefits you'll be entitled to, salary, what forms you need to sign, etc. You'll also be asked a few...

Wise words; I suppose I was just getting a little restless and thought I'd see where everyone else was. But you're right, we're all applying for different trades and a multitude of factors come into play in regards to how fast an application is sent through the system. So like you said, my...
