Well, "signing your own death warrant" is a tad paranoid. Your family member is absolutely right: you are far more likely to be never deployed abroad for a combat mission than to die violently as a result of such deployments. I don't mean to sound mean, but you can alleviate your worries and...

Glad to hear that it went well. Hope you get more good news soon.

You and me both. Best of luck!

Congrats. I guess you are now, finally, living the dream.  8)

This website is SERIOUSLY good. Read all of it. https://bootcampmilitaryfitnessinstitute.com/military-training/canadian-armed-forces-caf/canadian-armed-forces-caf-recruitment-selection-overview/

Hey there, If you are under the impression that CAF is desperate for recruits (as I once did), then probably best to tell you now that you have been misinformed. I'm currently away from computer so can't pull up the relevant sources, but it has been said that in the last few years the annual...

Yep, Infantry DEO here. It is on my signature, but I realise that on some mobile platforms the user signatures are not displayed, so probably should have clarified my trade in the earlier post.

Ha, a bit too much time if you ask me. And it's not like you Aug/Sept guys will get to spend Christmas and New Years running around in St. Jean either - everybody gets a nice winter vacation. Hopefully they made the offer with the subsequent training phases in mind. I'm just glad to have...

Well, they are now. "... you will be enrolled on 12 December 2018... you will be placed on leave without pay after your enrollment until your paid service commences on or around 19 January 2019 subject to service requirements (if applicable)... the intention is that you will be posted to the...

I just checked with my File Manager (Toronto) upon receiving my offer. I also plan to do a lot of travelling prior to enrollment and he said it's completely fine.

Try to get as much information from your RCs as possible, and keep yourselves informed from all sources. Best of luck to you all! Recruiting Center: Toronto Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: DEO Trade Choice #1: Infantry Trade Choice #2: Armour Trade Choice #3: Artillery Initial...
