I don't think we would be responsible to cover the cost of our transportation (cab if necessary) to St. Jean.

 

[eager_beaver]

They let me know at the DND that once we arrive if there is not enough of us for a "military transport" to pick us up we will be required to take a cab, she quoted me a price of $100.00 which will be reimbursed at a later time.

Was there a number given as to the necessary amount of people needed to receive a pickup?

 

[eager_beaver]

I don't recall the exact number, but it was under 10..I believe 8 or so.However I only have heard of 3-4 of us taking the train.Nothing to really worry about I guess, I just wanted to put that out there so we can be aware of the issue, and not get there standing around waiting for a ride that just may never come.

You'll probably have to get a cab.. when I went last fall almost all the guys coming to st jean via train had to get one... I  came via plane from Halifax and it seemed like the whole plane was full of recruits lol..we had a bus waiting for us at the airport (look for the guys in military uniform).. last fall I paid like $85 for a cab to the airport fr. st jean (when I VR'd/ left early- huge mistake, don't do(you'll regret it) unless its a emergency).. all travel expenses are reimbursed via travel claims (keep your receipts)

Excuse me Hitormiss I'm getting a little ahead of myself and your right, a buddy of mine was told ppcli and ended up in rcr. We all gotta get through training first!.......And In the letter they say 9 or more for the "school bus" less and its cab approx. 90-100 $ but they reimburse you......
