This is a specific question that a quick search was not able to answer. It's not a general question, I'd like to know if the army are going to be using Coyote's or Leopard's more often in the future.

I was considering the combat arms. Specifically Armour. I was wondering: Are armoured officers usually using the Coyotes or the Leopard C2's? Now that Afghanistan is done are we more likely to be mainly using the Leopard's in the future more than the Coyote's?

Makes sense. I guess they only want those with prior experience since only like 1 out of 10 pass the simulator test for pilot. For other trades like Artillery, Armour, MARS....I am pretty sure those don't need any prior experience. If pilot isn't available when I apply then I am fine with...

I will have my Bachelor's degree by August so I will apply in May or June. Some officer positions currently have a green check mark by them meaning that they are looking for those positions now: MARS, Art, Armor, and Pilot etc. And pilot was 'full' only 4 months ago...so that shows you that...

Ok, I thought so. My top 3 currently are ACSO, AEC, and Pilot....however, who knows what will be open/available when I apply in May or June. Are MOST officer trades open in April/May of each fiscal year?

Good feedback. Let me try to make the question a bit clearer. Lets say I pick Armour, AEC and ACSO (random hypotheticals). Armour ends up not working for some reason, AEC is closed and ACSO the person doesnt score high enough on the ACSO test....are you saying you would then get a new...

I have a question regarding the choices for your 3 chosen career fields. Lets say a perspective officer chooses MARS, LEGAL and PILOT (and has the qualifications).....if the officer (after interviews/testing) did NOT get ANY of his 3 choices then do they simply allow you to choose another 3 and...

Receptor? What's that mean?

Thanks anjp. What guide are you talking about?

This is proof that everyone has different tastes. Some of my friends love lemonade XTEND but can't stand Watermelon...some love BlueRaz and don't like all the other flavors. I've tried about 3-4 flavors and Blue Raz is my favorite cause of the sour/tang taste.

Pills taste horrible and are usually in large amounts. I recommend XTEND from Scivation. It tastes good (lots of flavors, tastes way better than kool-aid, no sugar) and has all the branch chain amino acids you need.

When you bulk to add lean mass you absolutely want to have more carbs than protein or fats. How else are you going to get strength gains and have that energy to add lean muscle? Right now I am eating around 3100 cals a day and my split is 210g protein/380g carb/75g fat...so as you can see carbs...

Some of those (like whey factory) can save me 35-40 bucks per month if their products are legit (due to free shipping). However, the weight gainer itself is the same price as bb.com (50 bucks for 10lbs)...i may sample it...but if a product sucks - it's unbearable to drink it (never get ultimate...

Yup, bodybuilding.com is great and probably the cheapest place in North America to get quality supplements. Anything domestic in-store is going to cost you almost double than it would on bb.com (even with expensive shipping to Canada). I usually go with Real Gains from Universal for bulking...

Everything LJohnson said is correct, true and should be applied. Supplements can help...if you can't find time to cook enough/carry food with you: a weight gainer supplement (with low sugar/fat) can definitely help you get your calories in while bulking. A preworkout helps me get psyched for...

It's not like my thought process is based off what career it may LEAD to. I just wanted to ensure that if I ever decided to do something else that there were other viable career options....but a bachelors+years of leadership experience should provide those options either way. So you're right...

MC, I am very interested in public affairs and intelligence. Can you find out for me if one can become a public affairs officer in the forces right out of university (with the appropriate degree) or if it requires 1-2 years working experience first? I've searched the forum and there's just...

I appreciate the answer. I guess I can't calculate 'which profession' is safer and I gotta just go with what I like.

The reason I didn't post this question before was exactly for that reason...someone was going to say 'go do some boring civilian 'safe' job'. I am sure you want to be safe doing your job because a career in any CF field isn't about being completely daring/not concerned for safety. My question...

True that. Armour seems like an awesome career to me especially the reconnaissance aspect of it. However, you cannot compare the risks of crossing the street to those involved in being in a war abroad. Huge difference of risk levels. The plane/combat vehicle example is more comparable.
