From personal experience I would finish your degree. I spent two years as a pte/almost cpl in an infantry reserve regiment while I was finishing off my degree. I joined the regular force as an NCM strictly for the fact that I would get a combat tour in Afghanistan, and if I had gone the officer...
I agree with a lot of the comments already posted on here about how stupid this apology is. I think it was already stated but when is she going to issue an apology for Canada not doing anything to prevent the current genocide that is going on in Darfur as I write this? I am no political guru but...
I know most of this thread is for news posts etc. but lets face it. Can we really trust anything from the US or Britain when it comes to intel? I sat and watched with my own eyes as they told the world audience that Iraq had WMD's and the possiblity of creating nuclear weapons. I then also...
I really don't know the whole story here other than what I've heard from some Reservists attached to my Regiment. However, as we were talking about it we were saying that those people who joined not JUST for the money would show up for whatever training was put together anyways. The ideas of PT...
Those are some of the sweetest uniforms I've ever seen. As for the coffee being fresh?? I have to wonder where that coffee came from. Maybe an almagamation of everybody's coffee packets from issued leftover American First Gulf War MRE's......
I've met a few guys online who have had 'false' military experience and just shrug it off. I've also met people in real life who took a Reserve BMQ course and then quit so they are on the same level as me with military 'coolness' in civi-land. This guy must have some sort of mental...
Do Reserve Officers not recieve the rank of 2Lt once they are accepted into the army for the Reserve Officer Training Program? They hadn't even attended their BMQ yet but they were wearing the 2Lt rank? Do they get promoted to Lt after they recieve their degree and pass all their training?
I'm sorry...I know this has nothing to do with the topic but instead of sending a PM of comendation to Technoviking I just wanted to thank you for posting that link. Adult Diapers may need to be purchased in my next outing to the drug store.
They had this promo out before and I used it once everyday. It said it was a free small coffee but I could get any size I wanted for free so I just got the large(which is extra large in Timmies size). Can't go wrong with free coffee.
I was always interested in Nazi Germany's idea of decorating their soldiers with a 'Wound Badge' in three different classes, Black(1-2 wounds), Silver(3-4), and Gold (5 or more). With our modern army this would not be suitable as an all encompassing medal which is what I believe the 'Sacrifice...
Military First Aid Training even through St. Johns does not qualify anything in the civilian world. I had to take my civilian first aid training twice over a few years in order to meet the requirements for the job I was applying for, although I have the training still qualified. Military first...
I was always curious what Canada would do if we were to enter another full scale conflict. How would they mass recruit but still maintain the quality of training our soldiers are getting today and gear issue on a mass scale?
