Im starting nov 12th too leaving out of toronto wont know till 7th when though

 

[Antieverything]

I start November 26th... but I leave by train on the 24th ! I wonder why that is!? 8)

 

[mkeller]

Well if you are to be at Basuc for the 12th you will probably have to elave Toronto on the 11th. The Cpl I talkd to over the phone told me they like people to arrive at St. Jean by 2pm. If you take a bus to Montreal you can get the Military Transport to St. Jean. It will arrive at 3pm but they said it will not be a problem

[Hedgehog18]

yeah i figured 10th or 11th they would fly me out of toronto, thoguh i dont get sworn in till the 7th so i dont know when for sure yet, is there only one course starting on the 12th or is there multiple ? such as 0098A, 0098B, ect ?

 

[jmlz87]

Our BMQ Serial is 0098E.

So did everyone get the list of items to bring(razers, locks, picture frame, etc.) or is everyone just going to buy the stuff there? I don't want to buy everything now and get there just for them to tell my that it is not military regulation.

 

[Hedgehog18]

im buying what i  need when i get there like razors and stuff to keep groomed and then the things like boot polish hanger s and such from the cannex locks are best to get befor cuz then you can get combo locks that are the same combo

 

[jmlz87]

Just to help, I went yesterday to Zellers and Sears to buy a few pairs of casual dress pants, socks (cotton), polishing/cleaning kit (polish, rag and brush), a cheap Casio watch ($20 analog with digital date read-out and backlight) and underwear. I've heard and read from earlier posts, that the CANNEX sells a 3 lock combo that includes your gun-box lock (trigger lock or weapon case lock? Could someone clarify?). Other than that, I just need to get my matching toiletries cases and I'm good to go!

 

[Pea]

The Canex sells a 4 combo lock package. (Just a warning, we had TONS of these jam on our platoon, so if you can get a set of 3-4 combo locks with the same combination before you go, I advise it) The "gun lock" you speak of is an Abus lock, and you'll need it to secure your rifle in your locker.

Hope that helps.
