Hey, I'm in for ROTP Infantry Officer

I've got an offer for ROTP Infantry Officer, swearing in on June 18.

I'm in for ROTP Infantry Officer, swearing in June 18th in Halifax. Haven't heard any dates for BMOQ yet.

Thank you for the understanding, writing has never been a strong point of mine, but it is something I am working on.

I mean when they use stuff like liquid shoe polish on their boots for example, the polish is going to crack causing them to have to do more work in the long run. So the short cut caused them to do more work than it would have taken to do it properly.

And I apologize for the improper use of punctuation.

What I mean is that they should'nt try short cutting on their uniform. Just spending the time working on it is enough.

I am a Sgt. at my local cadet corps and I just tell the younger kids, don't try to shortcut your uniform, because #1 you are to young to know what your doing and get away with it, and #2 Your uniform can be just as good if you take some time away from the TVs and computers and spend a few...

To me it kind of looks like a camelbak bfm, but I dont think so, and if you were issued it couldnt you go to that QM and just ask what it is?

I am basically in the same boat too, but I plan on becoming an infantry officer. I was wondering when would be the best time to apply for ROTP? Would it be like a first week of grade 11 or 12, or as I am finishing high school?

I have heard a few rumors that Argo might be moving to Labrador or something due to some ( and in my opinion much needed) maintenance and upgrades. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

16 with parental consent

Really the only reason I am consitering staying in Army Cadets is the slight chance I could do para and I have heard that by the time my application goes through for reserves I will be half-way through grade 12 anyway, meaning there would be no point.

Hey, I am 15 and a Sgt. at my local cadet corps, I was wondering whether I should stay in cadets until I am out of high school or join the reserves (Infantry) when I turn 16. But either way I would like to attend RMC. Which should I choose and also would joining the reserves as an NCM hinder me...
