Yes. As stated above the slots are usually pretty limited. Exceed the fitness standard and stand out (in a good way) and you may find yourself jumping out of a plane one day. Fire Discipline, to start with.

Good read

Was planning on competing in MM this year...blew out my knee on one of the ruck runs a couple of months back. Maybe next year!

think of the CF as the rest of the population, only smalller. Some might be against it, others will embrace it. But at the end of the day as long as you do your job the ones who hold your sexual orientation against you will likely be the ones criticized and discriminated against. Because let's...

the weapons staff at CFLRS is great. Looking back I wish they had spent more time showing us how to properly clean the C7, but we figured it out eventually. Haha

give it 100%, don't be an a**hole, help your buddies when you can.

A girl on one of the platooons that graduated 2 weeks before I did was a dental tech. If I'm not mistaken she went straight to Petawawa

I used marijuana moderately for a while. I had only been "clean" for a few months before my aptitude test. I was completely honest about my usage. I was asked why I quit, and I said it was because joining the military was what I was positive I wanted to do and that no high could ever compare to...

I start at CFLRS on Jan 30th and I believe that this policy change will affect performance and standards in an indirect manner. I do not believe there will be many candidates so pre-occupied with the outside world and social networking that they will shirk duties and spend an inappropriate...

I know what you mean Ken, generally I am met with disbelief when I tell people that my application process took about a year and that others have taken much longer. People seem to think it is a backup plan for anyone who is having trouble finding employment and if you have 2 legs, 2 arms and a...

A recruiter at a Reg F RC will be able to give you information on both Reg and Res components. When it comes to actually applying for the Res F, you will need to do that through the unit in question (Royal Westminster Regiment). If you need questions answered it would be more efficient to do...
