Hey everyone, I come from Winnipeg, I'm 18 years old and a first year university student. Last month I applied to join the reserves as an infantry officer with the Royal Winnipeg Rifles. I called the recruitment centre yesterday and they said I'll get an appointment call most likely next week.
If anyone has any advice or any information at all I'm all ears to every detail of everything, from what i know these are the guesses ive made of what will happen.
I'll get the appointment, do the tests, be offered training from may till august 2008, which will be in st jean sur richelieu québec and gagetown new brunswick, where I will be taking BMQ and SQ and then BOTP.
I already have a good sense of what BMQ and SQ are as a friend of mine is already a reservist and ive talked about it alot with him, but he doesnt know much about what happens for officers.
One other concern I have is my sister's wedding is august 23rd, not sure if that might end up being a problem or not.
Thanks to everyone who helps me out
edit:
I'm also wondering what's the difference between officer training and the RMC? Because I'm actually looking to possibly change universities, my experience at my current university feels unfulfilling.
