BMOQ January 7th

[MusclesGlasses]

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.

I have heard the same thing in regards to SLT for the Navy folk being held out west, which wouldn't be nearly as 'immersive' for those learning French as it would be if to do the STL in Saint Jean. But as you say, different information coming at us all the time. I guess we'll find out for sure in the new year.

Cheers

second language training is still in St. Jean if you need to learn french. Borden if you need to learn english.

It is my understanding not everyone does it right away. Some do it later in career if need be or not at all.

 

[MMSS]

That's right.
MMSS: Congratulations by the way; looking forward to meeting you there! Did you find out which platoon you'll be in yet?

I'm supposed to be getting a large amount of paperwork sent my way in the coming week. Based on the list on CFLRS website, there's only one English-language platoon starting that date, so I would expect to likely be on that one.

A huge thanks to everyone on this site, it was invaluable to me in the application process.

I have to say, I'm not all that unhappy that I won't be joining you guys is St-Jean; was not looking forward to doing BMOQ for a second time!  However, you sound like a great group and I would have liked the chance to work/train with all of you.  To the navy guys/gals, I'll probably see most of you out in BC after you finish basic. The NETP-O I'm waiting for probably won't start until you guys make your way out there.  Either way, I look forward to meeting you and I wish you all good luck.  Just a piece of advice, enjoy it; remember its a game and at the end of the day, they want each of you to pass, they're just going to make you work for it   See you guys on the other side

Cool beans Half Pint. Hope you don't have too boring a time waiting if indeed you don't get to head out to NETP-O until the rest of us head out once done in April. 

On a side note, those of you flying out from Toronto on the 5th, are you going through Pearson or the island? I've been told that my flight has been booked through Porter, and will therefore depart from the island, but won't find out what time until I swear in on the 18th.

Cheers
