I was wondering.. How often do you get to go to the shooting range during the summer BMQ/SQ courses? To be specific, I'll be going to Shilo, Manitoba. I realize that you go through preliminary training without even thinking about shooting.. But after you learn how to operate the C7, how often...

I found this very addicting.. Best time so far is 3:76 http://www.ebaumsworld.com/pparkgame.html

Thought this would be a more appropriate location for this directory.

I chuckled at a couple of these.. Hoefully they haven't all been seen.

I tried to search for this, but came up with nothing, so I'm sorry if this has been asked before.. I've noticed people talking about how they've had a 2nd medical exam? What exactly is the cause of this? I had to have a few letters from my doctors with my med file.. but I didn't actually "fail"...

That's just what I'm doing, moving onto the waiting game.. I got my 4th and final test done last night (fitness) and am very happy to have them all done! It's very exciting to know that the only things left is up to them now.. From here on in I'll be waiting for a (good) call to be sworn in...

...but I'll make one anyways.. So I'm in a play in my English class so we have to find costumes, etc. to wear. My friends and I walk down to the drama room and search through all the aged costumes, and low and behold, I find an old CF "Army Combat Parka"..it's dated 1981. I just sort of thought...

I know this might be more appropriate for the Recruiting board, but because I'm directing this more towards SigOps, its what Im going for, I thought I'd post it here.. What kind of things do you recieve in your kit when you are first sworn in? Just like a general list of the things.. thanks...

Hey, I'm soon to apply for a Signals Operator for the 705th comm squadron..tomorrow actually. I was told that you need to score higher on the aptitude test to qualify for sigs. How high do you have to get on it? I'm pretty smart, I like technology, and technology likes me, unlike some people. I...

I'm not totally into the whole fortune cookie thing seriously, just thought this was kind of funny to see. I've been looking into the military a lot lately. I am for sure going into it. I've been to an open house, going to another next week, and my family knows I'm serious about joining. We...

I was wondering how long summer BMQ courses usually run for. Say I am going into infantry, and I went away this summer for it, how long would it take? Is it a combined BMQ/SQ ? -Ross

Yea I was just wondering when reservists recieve there issued clothing, gear, like vests and stuff.. Do you get it when you join your reserve unit? Or coming off of BMQ/SQ ? Thanks.

Hey I was just wondering, when you join up in your reserve unit, how do the Commanding Officers designate who uses what weapon type, such as C7, C9..how exactly do they choose who uses what? Do you choose? Do they rotate the people who use them so everyone has experience with each? Thanks, Ross

Well today I took one of my first steps in joining the Canadian Army. I handed in my application form for a co-op BMQ course and am in hope that I'm accepted, or that I am able to get to the testing phase, should pass that no problem I hope! The co-op program I'll be a part of is about an...

I just thought this was sort of interesting. I mean, I knew the US Army was going to eventually use the new camo design, whether they call it CARPAT (I think that's what the marines call what they use) or whatever, but I didn't see anything in that article that had to do with it coming from...

This is actually similar to another post, except I'm inquiring about my state. I was wondering if my training sounds like it'll help me for this summer. I'm training every night for 1.5+ hours (with Sunday off). Every night consists of weights and cardio, more cardio than weights some times. I...
