Island Ryhno said:That's not true Hatchet Man, they are doing bmq in Borden also now and there is talk of extending it to Halifax and Esquilmalt(sp) Your kit gets issued to you at the base on which you are doing BMQ. So for you, you will get your kit at Borden probably early in the first week. Good luck.
Island Ryhno said:Just water fountain speak I hear. But it would be concerning reg force BMQ. Again those are just rumours, I have no solid evidence. Indeed the Halifax/Esquilmalt rumour has been around for awhile.
Hmmm...I suppose being from Toronto I'll be sent to Borden? I was looking forward to St. Jean! At least I'll have my car there and be able to go home on weekends.

Dakota said:Hey Zombie I have seen any Engineers going to Borden yet, but you never know the way people are being shipped all over the place.
Things in the military don't always do that, and you just accept it as is...Zombie said:Iâ ™m still thinking and hoping it will be St. Jean, however Borden makes more sense logistically. The CF wouldnâ ™t need to pay for a flight, but like you said you never know! Iâ ™m prepared to go anywhereâ ¦

Bradboy said:I live 2 hours from CFB Borden and I'm being sent to St. Jean, Quebec for my BMQ. I'm going 031 Infantry. I've talked to guys on these forums who have been accepted for the same trade and are being sent to Borden. You go where they send you. They won't take into consideration what base is closer for your convenience. At least they didn't for me! But besides, I'd rather travel to another province being I've never seen any other one than Ontario!! :-[ Cheers.
