Hello,
My fiance and I have recently put in our request for our very first posting (exciting), and we decided Petawawa was the way to go. We are both newly commissioned officers; he's a combat engineer and myself I'm an EME. I have two questions about Pet. I know that certain bases have reputations for being more relaxed or up-tempo or whichever it may be, in the case of Petawawa what is the working atmosphere like on base? I have heard through the grape-vine that Petawawa is more regimented than say, Gagetown, but I guess that also depends on the unit perhaps? Also, any treasures to be found in the Petawawa area? Good restaurants, interesting landmarks, historical monuments or museums? We're both fairly "outdoorsy" people, we love camping and snowboarding, hiking and swimming. As far as I know it's an awesome area for hiking and camping.
Much appreciated.
