Well, there have been some very interesting comments made in this thread all from a very simple request for information. For Spock, like i said before, you may run into a bully type person, don't sweat it, find the people in your platoon that you mesh with and work with them. Bullies usually wind up doing something stupid and getting released or recoursed in the end so they are really not a problem. Good luck.
For GO.
You will most likely be one of those people who wind up with Seven counsellings in the first 5 weeks of your BMQ. You are are a loud mouth and you really don't think about what you are saying before you say it. Yes ST Jean is a large training base with mostly recruits and 10 year + personnel. However most if not all of us who teach here have been in the Sh_t for real at one time or another. So before you start spouting off about things you don't have a clue about think about this. Most instructors here have been to Yugo, Somalia, Afghanistan, Chzech Republic and have been fired upon and returned fire at one time or another. Others have been in Aviano and Turkey making aircraft fly, while still others have been in the Gulf and on OP Apollo ,facing everything from SCUD missiles with chemical warheads to being stuck between an Indian battle group and a Pakistani battle group. These are all things that make the sphincter pucker at an amazing rate. Getting into a fight after a high school dance just doesn't count. So next time you want to make comments about the people who are already serving members of the CF, read this and then give your head a shake and don't.
For every one else if this goes against the rules of the site, sorry. I will accept any verbal, recorded warning that comes my way, but it had to be said.
Ready Aye Ready
