It was meant for NFLD Sapper, and since he posted the link, I assumed he read it.

Regimental Avatars-Before you use a regiment/units capbadge as an avatar give it some thought. Yes it's an unofficial site. You could put the PPCLI, RCR, 82nd airborne, SAS, JTF, some reserve regiment avatar up as your own. Theres no rule saying you can't. If your not in that specific regiment...

When I mentioned your age, I meant that most grown men don't normally go out and seek internet debates over trivial matters (such as an avatar). Once again, choose your battles.

Damn you're witty... I'm not too sure if you knew this, but the words tradition and policy are definitely not synonyms. And there was no need to change the topic of the thread to start an argument with someone who is practically a third of your age. Choose your battles.

When I first went to the recruiting centre I didn't know either, but I asked the woman at the front desk and she was able to pull something up with all of the occupations and how many applicants will be accepted for them.

My bad  :P Just the way it was worded I guess.

Just curious, but did the recruiting centre staff call or email you to inform you that you were merit listed or did you have to contact them to find out?

It means it gave him the opportunity to talk about things he experienced. Those experiences are generally the kind of things that interviewers are looking for.

Just because you attend CMR does not mean you're French. The students in prep year are all from Quebec, but a large number of first year university students there have English as their primary language.

What I've been told by friends attending there is that first year students wear the number fours (the blue dress uniform with the wedge) off campus. Scarlets are for more ceremonial occasions.

Would anyone on here happen to know the vision requirement to be considered for combat diving training? I have heard two answers: V2 and V3. Thanks!
