(Hmm.. Where to put this thread..  ???  Recruiting?  Maybe..  Radio Chatter?  Maybe..  Well, where are the people with the answers?  OK.  I'll put it in Combat Arms.) MIKsam posted a cut and paste from the New Glasgow News in the Agent Orange thread.  Here's the link to the article...

Apologies if this has been posted before.  If that's so, many thanks for a link. I was looking through the CFLRS site and found the IAP and BOTP week by week outline.  http://www.cflrs.forces.gc.ca/site/soyez_prets/pei/horaire_type_w1_e.asp Looks challenging.  Everything looks more or less...

...Yup.  This post was more suited to the Recruiting section. Moving out smartly.  :salute:

I wondered about this after seeing some clips from the Palm Beach Post. http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/content/news/epaper/2005/03/06/m16a_videoscene_0305.html The one entitled 'blood clot' shows some soldiers - to the point of booting one restrained fellow to the head - showing some...

Hello - Can someone please explain the difference between parts 1, 2 and 3 of the medical screening process ..or perhaps post a link to a good thread? Part one - I presume - is the questionnaire, pee in the jar, touch your toes, and walk on your heels affair done at the CFRC.  Is this...

Hi - Pardon the question if you will ..just curious really.  When I see images of soldiers with their rucksacks it looks as if whatever is in the compression bag takes up about 1/3 of the load. What the heck is in there, and is there anything commercial that you are aware of that would...

Bonjour et Bonne Fete - SVP pardon ma francais n'est pas parfait.  Je n'ai pas beacoup de confiance en francais, mais j'ai une question pour les soldats dans Quebec ..et peut etre pour les soldats francophone en general. Je suis Montrealais Anglo et, pour moi, la Fete St. Jean Baptist...

Curses.  Called the CFRC today to get an update on the status of my file.  It appears that I need to see a medical specialist (or my file is before a specialist ..something to that effect.  There was a language barrier.  Obtaining clarification tomorrow.) A question for anyone in the know; If I...

I have to imagine this question has been asked before, but I have searched the checked the FAQs and can't find a thing.  If someone can post a link I'd be grateful. Got a call from the CFRC today stating that I did not qualify for my first selection due to my performance on the CFAT.  :-\  I'm...

Hi There - I purchased a credit history report from Equifax and Transunion to make sure everything was up to date and as it should be.  Sure enough, the DND did a credit check on me.  ONE day after my interview! (Someone is on the ball.  :salute:) In any case, to get to the point, I noticed...

Hello - Had my interview today.  2 hours!  That man knows me better than anyone but my wife.  (It went very well.  I recommend that you have your have life story ready from grade 9 or so on and give some thought to the answers you gave on the interview prep form.  Then RELAX, go in and...
