Ship's log and AHR won't have what you are looking for. You would be really going out of your way for a curiosity IMO.

Unfortunately, you can't choose both NCM and Officer as your choices. You must choose to either join the force or dark side.

+1 Choose your trade wisely. The government doesn't like to waste tax dollars so you can play around and figure what you want to do with your life. Having said that, the CAF is a family and we do take care of our people. If you get selected for pilot and fail, you'll go through a review board...

I think you're wrong when you say they "didn't really care". Of course they care. Being honest about it is a good thing but they'll consider the whole story before making a decision.

True. I'd be willing to drive to Kingston or Toronto if we can. (if they allow us to leave). We can rent from enterprise (they'll pick you up) and drop off the vehicle at another enterprise in another city if necessary. Drive back to St. Jean afterwards... You may be flying in alone, but we'll...

My flight out from YYZ is at 1200 and in Montreal after an hour. As for the vehicle idea, my file manager encouraged me to take the flight as well. It does make sense though, seeing how you can't use it for at least 5 weeks.

+1  :) Very wise words.

Congratulations!

I'm sure you'll get answers if you search for them.

Thanks Kais, congrats to you too! It will feel real for you on the 19th when you swear-in so don't you worry. See you there.

There was one NCM that had the info package mailed to him, but everybody else got an email with a link to CFLRS aside from one other guy who didn't get anything but a call to come in for the ceremony.

Officially a CF member today with 3 other MARS NCdts and 3 other NCMs. First couple of hours just going through forms but we all did not have to complete the security clearance forms until St. Jean. Some Q and A then ceremony. Found out I'm flying Westjet out of Pearson. Pretty straight forward.

I'm heading out like everyone else on 05 Jan 13 from Toronto; swearing in tomorrow.

I'm swearing in tomorrow morning. Will post some relevant info here tomorrow.

... and if you don't get in when you re-apply in the future, you'll be a guy without any college/university education; and that won't make it easier for you to find a job in the future.

From what I see, looks like the dates may be different for different people. Personally, I was merit listed Nov 1st and got the call Nov 6. It would be best to call your recruiting centre to find out if you have been selected.

peak_to_prairie and portager: Congratulations to both of you. Looks like there will be a few pilots in addition to MARS this coming January.

Do you know something I don't?  ??? From my research I found that after BMOQ, MARS officers go to Esquimalt for SLT; but then again, I get different answers all the time.

MusclesGlasses: Thanks! Based on your reply, I think L0009F (L20) is for the French officers and L0010E (L13) for the English officers. I guess any English speaking officer will be in L0010E. By the way, anyone know where MARS officers will be doing second language training? I'd prefer it to...
