UPDATE:
Well, today I just swore in and its very interesting.  Recruiters took us in one by one and asked us if any of our information was changed since the last visit. For example address, drugs, illegal activity.... Then we all went into a board room where we signed a few papers, received information about flights and arrivals, stuff that's pretty straight forward.  Then we had to wait for about 45 minutes because we were done early.  Then at 3, everybody who was joining and only 2 of their relatives/friends were walked into the same room with a picture of the Queen and two flags.  One at a time you were asked to come up to the front and repeat the Oath, received this certificate, asked questions, took pictures, and off we went.  Now I just have to wait 10 days before I fly out.  I"m so pumped after today.  You walk out of that building so proud and your head high.  So, good luck to everyone who is still in the application process and good luck to those of you going to Borden April 10.  Hopefully I'll see some of you guys there.

Anyone making a stop in Winnipeg or leaving there in the morning of April 2?
 
AHHH!!!

I got called Thursday afternoon, and i'm getting sworn in on Marsh 31st, flying out of the Victoria Airport on April 1st (no time), and i'm on the April 3rd BMQ in Borden.

Going in as a MSE Op (no element specified to me, but I did apply to the airforce)

Right now, i'm just packing up all my stuff, and waiting until monday to ship it out to CFB Naden to storage. I'm so stoked about this friday ;D :salute:

See everyone there, and good luck to us all.
