What do you use to play the file with?

Should it be worn throughout November, or just up to Remembrance Day?

My history teacher last year when we we're talking about World War II gave us a verbal list of the horrible things that can happen to you during war, and the horrible things that can happen to your family back home as well as your country, then asked the class how many students would fight for...

There's no grade 13 anymore because of the new curriculum, so it's not that the information isn't being taught anymore, it's just it's being crammed in in less time.

lol...more then likely.  Even though our literacy test scores are high, a lot of people fail, even the smart ones (and what that means is even some of the kids who get 90's in English choke on the test).  But if most of these kids aren't "that smart", and the stereotype of people in the Army...

Cadets maybe?

Okay, thanks guys.

That was my assumptions getting the best of me again.   I assumed that as long as you were on a reserve and had completed your training, that you were a soldier. So then there is a ppossibility..so small that it probably won't ever happen, but it's still there.

Just to clear up a previous comment of mine... I wasn't trying to attack Canuck_25 when I said he was a perfect example of what's wrong with teens today, what I was trying to say by that was what he said answered the original question as to why teens may seek to join other countries forces and...

It happens for everyone at different times...I guess because I happened to be surrounded by people who knew what they wanted to do not only set me in some type of panic, but also the belief that everyone around me, not just my friends, had at least an idea for what they wanted to do when they...

But is there still the possibility that a soldier under 16 years of age could be sent off to war?

I agree... I guess I should have said have an idea of what they want to be at an earlier age, because even though I know I want a career in the Army, my parents are always telling me "You're only 16, you can change your mind a million times before your 20...", and they're right, so again, I...

Just so there's no confusion, I voted as a "Student"...not reserves since I'm not a member of one yet.

Is there a certain age you must be on a reserve that if the need should arise, you won't be sent off to war?  If I had to guess, I'd say anyone under 18 wouldn't be allowed to be sent off, then again, you are a member of the Canadian Forces on the reserve, even if you're only 16.  Then again, I...

Student in process of joining reserves...
