    Pace Stick and Sword?

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and say he was being sarcastic because I don't think anyone would be serious and advise you to jack up a RSM.

    Books on Military Tactics

    Infantry Attacks by Rommel On Guerrilla Warfare by Mao Zedong Strategy by B.H. Liddell Hart Those are just a few. Theres a lot more pre-WWI as well.

    Applying to Reserve unit in another province

    Try calling them. That's the best way to get an answer and straight from their recruiting Officer too.

    Reserve basic up?

    Unfortunately no, but it wouldn't be a bad idea.

    Non-commissioned member or officier in reserve

    That is incorrect. I began the recruitment process when I was still in grade 12 and was sworn in during my first semester of University. During that time I was 17 (I have a late birthday). However, the unit may decide not to take you as an officer if you are a young age, but that is a case by...

    Weekend Pres BMQ 2010-2011 experiences (good and bad)

    More should though. They are a great source of info for every member of the Unit. But I digress! Back to stories from BMQ  ;D

    Weekend Pres BMQ 2010-2011 experiences (good and bad)

    BBN's (Battery Briefing Notes) are rare in most Artillery units, and wouldn't be called the same thing in non-Artillery units. He will most likely have to talk to his chain of command to find out info for courses.

    Weekend Pres BMQ 2010-2011 experiences (good and bad)

    To the best of my knowledge, yes. BMQ-L (used to be called SQ) is run on weekends, but it may vary depending on your region. If it is being run shortly after your BMQ it is likely that you will be loaded on. However, take what I say with a grain of salt, as it can vary from unit to unit...

    The Depression / Anti Depressants Merged Thread

    The best thing to do is see a recruiter. They're the only ones that can tell you the right answer. Good luck!

    Houston - "Man arrested, accused of stolen valor"

    Why do these people always wear the most distinguished medals? It just draws more attention to themselves.

    Holocaust survivor gets diploma denied to him during war

    I have had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Maxwell speak at my school in Toronto. He is a very well spoken man and the stories he shared were wonderful (albeit in unfortunate circumstances). I wish him well in his future years. Though its a shame the diploma had to be from The York School  >:D

    Logistics Officer vs Intelligence Officer vs Other Officer Trades...Need Advice

    Have you considered the NCM route as well? I think you might be over thinking the Officer aspect a bit to much. Or what about the Reserves? It might be a better way to ease into the military. Visiting a local reserve unit will give you (in my opinion) a very in-depth experience of what goes on...

    Logistics Officer vs Intelligence Officer vs Other Officer Trades...Need Advice

    Any trade (infantry, logistics etc.) is going to require a certain level of analytical and critical thinking skills, good organization and planning but why limit yourself to trades that list history as a preferred degree? A fellow artilliery officer of mine has a BA with Honours in history. Are...
