    Basic Training - Once For Life

    I heard from a social worker in the military that they recently decided that officer and enlisted basic is now just once and is good for life.  In other words, if you did 5 or 10 years in the CAF 8 or 10 years ago and decide to re-join, they will wave basic training again since you already did...
