Bigm said:Got my package today, report to ASU London to meet the Liason Officer, Aug 9-13th, then off to RMC Kingston for the 14th-28th of August. Leave for home on the 29th as I am in Civi U. I am out of CFRC Hamilton so i'm assuming that the majority of people from west of there is going to be on the same schedule. Hope this helps with planning and what not.
Dou You said:I received some information through email today that I thought I'd share. I was sent info stating that all Civi U candidates selected from Western Canada and Ontario will be arriving at RMC Kingston on August 14th for their Recruit Camp. It's not a lot of information but it's nice to finally have some info.
fanman said:This info could have been found on the RMC website a couple weeks ago. It's in the online joining instructions. Just saying, and not trying to sound like a douche. Anyways, best of luck at Civi U, I'll be seeing you at Kingston for Recruit Camp
Dou You said:Both RMC Kingston's and CMR St. Jean's joining instructions' included Civilian University Joining Instructions sections, however neither of these instructions included where exactly I, as a Civi U student, would be attending the Recruit Camp. It could have been Kingston or St. Jean, and up until yesterday my CFRC didn't know either. However now I know that myself and all other Western Canada and Ontario CIVI U OCdts will be attending Kingston for Recruit Camp, while I assume that CIVI U OCdts from Quebec and Eastern Canada will be attending St. Jean for it...? Maybe someone else could confirm that...
I didn't sense one bit of "douchiness" haha, but I was just posting it so that other Civi U candidates who didn't know where their Recruit Camp would be, would now know where they were headed to. But if I missed where it said specifically the institution that each Civi U candidate would be attending for Recruit Camp, I apologize in advance as I must have read over it...rendering my post that I thought would be "informative" pretty much useless. ;D Good luck to you as well at RMC fanman and I'll see you (and possibly not even know it's you) in August!
Bigm said:The package only says that the meeting with the Liason Officer is going to be "the beginning of a long journey in the CF" etc, etc. Nothing really useful and to be honest the way it reads, it is not even clear that the entire period of time is spent there. For example, it says 9-13 August, meet the liason officer, 14th of August arrival at RMC. Does the meeting last 4 days? It does not specify anything about bringing package or accommodations and such while you are there so I am wondering if it is only a meeting that must be done within that time period? Especially considering that if I spend the day before I am supposed to be at RMC at the ASU with the liason officer than they would most probably have specified travel method from ASU to RMC would they not? Anyone have facts/opinion on this??? Thanks

ReidMeyers said:I am currently going to Carleton University and live in Ottawa however I have received my joining instruction(This was only maybe 10 pages, explaining how to get to St-Jean, what to bring, swearing in etc.) saying my 2 weeks orientation will be done at CMR St-Jean. I do not think just because you live in Ontario you will be going to RMC Kingston. Fanman was talking about receiving a couple things I did not. Such as that DVD and a stack of papers described as 1cm thick. I'm curious if that is only for people actually going to school at the RMC or have I just not received something yet.
