This might be a little stale now, but if you are still interested. I am a graduate from a forestry program before joining the CAF. It is an excellent degree if that is the route you would like to go down. I understand the importance of having that card in your back pocket upon joining the CAF...

They do this BC pretty much annually. I used to work in forestry before the mob. My tree planters called me one day at the office to say that "Dude, like black ninja's... man... like flew out of the sky into the block with machete's!" Unfortunately the ninja's didn't take the immature plants...

Congrats, but before you walk in the doors of the Mega and get jacked up by a commissionaire for the first time, do something for me. #1) Remember to take things seriously, but not too seriously; #2) Google the definition of the word "sarcasm" before you go... It will save you a world of hurt...

How does one get a DLN account? I had one a couple of years ago... it doesn't work anymore. Pretty sure on the old DLN website you could register on-line, but there doesn't seem to be a way of doing that anymore.

There are no instructions on wearing head dress in service buildings. There are for other areas i.e. church, mess, non service building, etc. See Section 3 of the CF Dress Instructions.

So the middleman (PWGSC) just hired a middleman for half a million? Isn't that why PWGSC has 10,000 employees and a budget of 4 billion dollars annually?

Well there ya go... as long as you have thought about. No I mean ROTP Civy U

My only question would be why RMC? Why not stay at Carleton and go ROTP.

Good to know! I tried it a month ago... couldn't get the plug-in... will try it again

Now if only we could use these at work on the DIN.

Decision made. Waiting for minister announcement.

Sounds like the Naval Ops Course (NOC)... Its coming to an end very soon. NOC will be divided among all phases of the new MARS II, III, IV... You'll notice I didn't say NETP-O. So this must be a course for the none MARS type. Maybe.

Yoman hit the nail on the head... I have no doubt that they will hire again sometime soon, but I don't see it happening in the near future. Even without FELEX there are training bottlenecks. REGULUS isn't going full ahead right now; The only opportunities available at this very moment are New...

Tentative dates aren't out that I can see. But if you go off what happened this past summer it might give you an indication. The course is 10 weeks for RegF... one started on the 24 of May and one on the 6th of June. RIMPAC is like a month long and I doubt they have enough room for 20 extra...

Like one and half shoe boxes... Green sector you get barrack boxes I believe. The rest of your stuff gets locked up in spare room in the blue sector. Only opens on the weekends, if at all.

I'm pretty sure that MY staff (not saying your staff won't) didn't even read ours... even if they did they didn't retain much about what I wrote. They remember the obvious... so and so has kids at home... or so and so has previous service and was serving in conflicts when your instructor was in...

Do not go out of your way and buy underwear..... I did and wish I didn't. They will issue with green underwear. As for clothes... remember for the most part you want clothes that you can wear out on the town IF you ever get a weekend off. Not to mention it will be the only shit you have after...

Also let this be a heads up... If you are a nurse on the platoon, expect to be issued the platoon first aid kit week one. Which may sound like a medical persons little dream until they have to carry it on ruck marches and every other crappy place they make you run to. Not to mention you are the...
