That's kind of funny we have the same birthday. I'm coming from Campbell River, Vancouver Island, B.C. My name is Scott by the way. When do you fly out?

 

[mciver]

I also have been merit listed and hope to also join the rest of you in July or sooner maybe.  I was told last Wednesday that I will receive my call within a week as I had applied for an infantry position, and they get filled quicker usually.  Good luck and see you all soon at bmq.  By the way, I too am from southwestern Ontario.  Goderich to be exact.  Peace.

Hi.  My name is Pearl and I actually haven't been told which day I'd be flying out, but I am flying!  I guess I'll have to ask at my swear in ceremony on the 17th.  But really I'm figuring either the Friday or the Saturday before.

Awesome, see you there!

 

[siege]

is anyone flying out to montreal on the 6th?

 

[Slaw]

I start on the 7th as well....Flying out of Hali on the 5th. See you all there!!!

 

[siege]

what is your trades choice?

 

[Slaw]

only one trade choice was made from the beginning. I chose AVN Tech and thats what I was offered. how about you?

 

[smoke]

quick question, are they still accepting people into the july courses?

Edit: or better yet when is the next infantry selection board.

 

[siege]

I assume they are still accepting people into the July courses, being infantry etc.  Cause I only got my call on thursday last week and theres still quite a bit of time before my July BMQ starts.  O and im going in for combat engineer

 

[smoke]

ok cool dude, mabye we will run into each other there, the days seem to be ticking by so slow and I was only merit listed last friday!

 

[siege]

yeah its definetly a nerv racking process, my buddy finshed his testing and interview etc. at the end of march, and began BMQ in the last week of April i believe it was.  So his process didnt take him long at all, he also went in for infantry

 

[smoke]

yeah, I do beleive infantry is a wanted trade  I was told to expect a call by mid june, but since it's in high demand I'm expecting it to take alot less longer, the captain of my CFRC was a really good guy and he waid he was going to speed it up as fast as possible, I'm even thinking i might get a call by the end of the week, I go to sleep with the phone on my headboard of my bed lol..

I'm Excited and the days right now seem to take weeks to go by.

 

[siege]

yeah i hear ya, i hope your training hard haha

 

[smoke]

I can do about 40 push ups and 40 sit ups, and I'm getting WAY better at running, not too concerned about the level 6 on the beep test, I'm more concerned about the 5k runs they will kill me, and from what i hear they get even jollier in my trade training course, BIQ and SQ, up to 20k :crybaby:
