Update on my situation: File is on hold because I need to get two tattoos cleaned up a bit hehe Blood Pressure though is still something that worries me and I recently did a bit ,ore digging. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the G2/G3. I read it as ANY prescription medication...

Here's the offending tattoo btw. "Young bull says to the old bull: Hey, let's run down that hill and f*ck one of those cows. Old bull says No. Let's walk down and f*ck them all"

Is that the latest version of the policy? I got my file closed during the interview because I have a tattoo on my calf with the fword in it. :tsktsk: "that are visible either in military uniform or in civilian clothing" ...shorts?

I wrote my CFAT mid January. Still waiting for the background and/or security check. I'm Swedish, lived in Austria and England as well. Nothing weird. It just seems to take forever. I have worked Provincial and Federal jobs in the past requiring background and security checks, but none took...

Yeah I was told there is a March 15th date on my file.  Of course I biggered up my ankle at work on the 15th, been off work since!  :'( Physio says 6 weeks but I'm gonna try to do it in half that. I'll PM you!

Hiya. Pending medical, I guess I just "got approved for further processing" as Armour/Crewman. Any spring 2018 BMQ people here? :whistle:

Thank you and yeah that;s fair. I have been on these little pills for 13 or 14 years. Holds everything right where they need to be.

How's everybody feeling?  ;D I'm in the process of joining and I'm interested in this trade. 37 years young, pretty decent shape. Powerlifting background although last few months have been just running, rucking and bodyweight stuff. What's the average age of a NCM combat engineer these days?

True yeah. And part of why I'm asking is reassurance that it is still possible to get in. But there are two other parts of my question that I'm looking for answers to too namely what people have done to "prepair" for the medical because I have two months to get ready. The other part is if BP...

Morning all. This is a medical question. I'm in the enrollment. The reason I'm posting this in general is because I'm hoping to hear from current service people. Most of the replies coming from the medical enrollment page seem to be "talk to the medical officer" and I'm not at that stage yet. I...

Yeah I'm looking at what I can do online once I'm in, and the do the transfer. Lunchmeat, could you elaborate a little on portion the educational requirements and the 180 tour. Never heard that, so it's nice to see there are options.

Morning all! I have a somewhat off topic question but I think I can still make ut fit this topic and save having to start a new thread: Former MP (conscription) solder from Sweden. Just shy of 10 years as a correctional officer both provincial and federally. Grade 12 only, nothing else. I'm...

37.5 year old here, and also looking at joining. I am in decent shape, but that's from years of powerlifting. Cardio is shit! ::) What I changed to get into the army fit bit, is I dropped all gym stuff and (as mentioned) focused on just bodyweight stuff and running. Couch to 5k is a great...

Just to confirm: Reg Force MP needs 2 years post secondary, res MP does not? I'm a former MP from Sweden (conscription). We were tasked to patrol outside of urban areas (reg MP were city) as counter-sabotage patrols.

Spanks!  ;)
