Has anyone ever looked into this or given it a go, or even thought about it? :warstory:

thanks guys i appreciate it

Alright, so I was just sworn in, and was told that the next available BMQ course was in the summer (for some reason the weekend courses aren't available...???) and I was wondering if you get time to go home like, on a weekend or something or if you get leave at all during this time.

Anyone serving in this regiment or know anything about it, like, how is it, the soldiers, the command, etc...? I may transfer over to the regiment once I start school in the area come September. :warstory:

Ok, not so much a huge problem, but I get sworn into my reserve regiment on Tuesday night, now I missed the BMQ start date for this Friday and my regimental recruiter has informed me that I will be on the course for September, but I will be kitted up and parading with the regiment within a week...

I recieved this poem in an e-mail, everyone needs to read it, it's honestly beautiful. THE SOLDIER > >'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, HE LIVED ALL ALONE, >IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF PLASTER AND STONE. > >I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE, >AND TO SEE JUST WHO IN THIS HOME...

All of the CF feels the loss. Lest We Forget. R.I.P. :cdn:

Theres a reserve unit of RCR near London Ontario. Just found that out. I have a cousin who served with RCR and now hes with JTF2 (apparently, no one really knows he doesn't talk much hahaha). Upon graduation of University I was planning on going RCR. Anyway, At the moment I'm in the process of...

Oh yeah, one more thing, if everything goes smooth, and I get in to the unit I applied through, I might switch universities to somewhere else in Ontario, and I know for a fact it won't be untill I finish my BMQ and SQ training. It is alright to switch units to somewhere around my chosen...

They had told me two weeks, but its been three, going on four weeks monday. Whats the hold up? does it always take this damn long? I know for a fact I don't have a criminal record (I work with children as a volunteer in a hospice) and my credit, lets just say we all have our problems but nothing...

R22eR anyone from that regiment? How is Valcartier and how far is it from MTL or QC, hows the training, life, etc..? :cdn:

Opinions from anyone? I know the differences I'm just asking from anyone in Armd. RECCE and Infantry to compare, debate and persuade on which one is better to be involved in, i.e. more fun I guess lol :salute:

Frankly, I'm still caught up in the process and hoping to start BMQ Nov. 25 but I know everything will go smooth because I'm a "clean applicant" but anyway, Armoured RECCE was the most appealing to me because it involved brains and braun. In the long run I'm hoping to graduate university (1st...

Yeah I'm in college at the moment doing a program which would generally classify as a transfer year from college to Univ. I was wondering about RMC also, if I keep a 3.0 Average or higher in this year of General Arts and Science transfer crap, would they look at me? :sniper:

Afraid? No. It's good to see responses though, it's actually helping me out here, thanks guys, appreciate it. :warstory:

Yeah I'll stick to 2FER because im in University now anyway gettin a BA so after i get my degree ill do Officer training and go Infantry that was the original plan, I just wanna experience life as an NCM first and your right the engineers work with their hands and head, it'll be a good...

Handed in the application to 2FER (Field Engineers) but after looking at the GGHG (RECCE) I really don't know anymore. Sappers as the recruiting officer told us are the most adaptable and have "golden" Opportunities to partake in Infantry and RECCE style units etc... but I don't know, I...
