Like it or not, suit is the best choice

It's time for you to invest some $ on suits.
Trust me you need it throughout your life.
 
What do you mean by "like it or not"?

You could show up in a pair of board shorts and flip flops and still be sworn in, you'd just look a bit under dressed.

I wouldn't invest in any new clothes solely for the purposes of being sworn in.

You'll find plenty of folks walking through the door of the recruiting centre who are nowhere near being in a financial situation where they can afford to buy a new suit on a whim.

Wear somthing nice, don't go overboard, and certainly don't spend money you don't have to do it.
 
Flowered shorts, tuxedo t-shirt a la Joey Jeremiah.

Done.
 
And a mullet.

It may be many years before you can have another.

A few, until one gets into JTF2 where they are all but mandatory.
 
Do you start getting paid after you're sworn in or does that begin at BMQ/BMOQ?
 
So I just got an email today, my file has been downloaded to 32 Svc bn, and the swear in ceremony is on June 13, at Denison Armoury.

Can anyone tell me how many people are going to be there?
and any personal experiences from what its like?

Hey AJL,
Yesterday was your big day! Congratulations!! Now you get to share your experience under your own question!! How was it??

MarioMike is all about posting links in response to this stuff- Hes like a Thread guru, an atlas of the thread world. His linkage helped me out in one of my questions. Thanks mariomike

Again, congrats AJL!!
 
@108 Stitches
It was actually not what I expected it to be. Another recruit and I were sworn in in the office of the CO of my unit. Only the two of us, I thought there were going to be a lot of people.
There was a lot of paperwork to be done before the actual swearing in. Once I was sworn in, I was introduced to a few people in the unit, and given a tour of Denison Armoury.
The reservists at 32 Svc Bn are some of the most awesome people I've ever met, and now I'm really look forward to BMQ.
 
Just remember, once BMQ kicks off, it's game on.  In some cases it may actually be your recruiter who is yelling at you at 5am during PT.  Oh and Congrats.
 
Silly question but what is the common thing to wear to the NCM Reg force swearing in ceremony? What did you wear? I'm having issues finding any refrence. Im planning on a formal suit but just dont want to overkill is all lol.

Thanks!
Uther
