Assuming you can even get course loaded on a Reg force Recce Patrollman Crse. (Not likely) A person asking these types of questions should really think about if you are actually ready to do the type of training that a Recce Crse demands or if you have enough experience to even be nominated, as...

  I was under the impression that all infantry do BMQ 13 weeks and then enhanced BIQ 14 weeks. All other MOCs do the 4 week BMQ Land ( SQ ) after BMQ. Correct ? ... My original questions was would I start my BIQ before or after the holidays? Which brings me to another question if i were to start...

  Wow all the infantry types start BMQ after me .. I start in St. Jean july 16 also infantry PPCLI . Maybe we'll end up on the same BIQ. Im not quite sure what to think about my training timeling , BMQ July 16 - Oct 19 . Im not sure if BIQ would start before the christmas break or after the new...

  Perhaps have all the regular infantry battalions become Mech and have a unit of CSOR attached to each brigade as their light infantry capability. Just a thought ...

Quick question for clarification .... Is there still an SQ course or is it now BMQ land ? Or is the BIQ now 13 weeks instead of 10 ?

  Sorry Man ... If you haven't done your medical or interview by now your not gonna make the July 16 BMQ . I had all my testing done in March and i got my job offer last week . You're going to wait out for a while yet ... If things go smooth for you your looking at maybe Sept. BMQ.

    I'll be leaving for ST. Jeans from Vancouver for BMQ starting July 16 ... Infantry PPCLI ...   See you there ....  ^-^ ....

  Does this mean that all the light Coy's will be jump capable ... aka Para Coy's ... ?

    I have the same problem . I was honest and was told waitout for three years . As of now its been 1.5 years and Ive decided to reapply anyway. I've almost finished my GED , paid money out of my own pocket for a drug screening and have got several references . One from my doctor saying I'm...

        Perhaps station one of the future companies of CSOR at the Chilliwack base . They wouldn't require the logistics and support of a full batallion . Plus a great training area for light infantry with all the coastal mountain terrain in BC . Just a idea .....

    Check out this YouTube vid on the Leopard 2 ...  :o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMa9MhSSqzk&mode=related&search=  

        Just wondering how undermanned our infantry battalions actually are and which batallions need the most personnel . Also what unit is CSOR going to draw the majority of its personell from to form that second company . ? I've read threads with the same questions but no  answers , so i...

Just to clarify ..... I would completed my Armd recce trades courses and the maybe in my third year maybe get on to DP1 Inf course before i transfer to the Regs ... Slot would not be wasted because i would be transfering to a Reg Inf unit in the future .... possible .... ?

Can an Res Armd Recce solider take the DP1 Inf course or any other Inf courses if the solider were to transfer to a Reg Inf unit later in their carrear ... I ask because I may be moving to an area where the only Res unit in the area is a Armd Recce unit . I plan to spend about 3 years as a...

      By now most educated people know that Mr. Laytons comments and views on the military and Afghanistan come from the bottom of a trash can ... I usually laugh at him and promptly change the channel .. As for his comments yesterday ,  one statement really got to me was "We learned today that...

Ok Guys , I refuse to believe that the pride of our forces , JTF 2 , are abandoning the CF . Jack Layton did not use the words retired or former members . I believe he used the words " abandoning the CF" . Do you think our troops on mission in Afghanistan are going to drop everything to make a...

   I was watching Canadian Question Period on CBC today when I had to listen to Jack Layton of the NDP accuse JTF 2 troops of abandoning the CF to take up mercenary contracts in Iraq ..... Not only is Jack Layton openly against the Afghan mission , now he's trying to make our troops look bad as...

        Well it means alot to have your support .. I still have to try anyway .. When I was a cadet long ago i had a Trg Officer from our reserve regiment that gave me some words of wisdom .... " Everyone makes mistakes , its the ones who make the same mistakes over who are the F****N IDIOTS .. " 

Last march i applied to the CF and like many others got my dreams crushed when being honest about past drug use.. Last Dec. I made the worst mistake ever by trying ecstasy . The CF recruiting staff told me to reapply after 3 years  :-\ .. After alot of regret and reading on these forums i've...
