I had a package on it's way to me from a friend for Christmas. My friend contacted me to see if I had recieved it yet, which I haven't. So we decide to use Canada Post's online tracking system. It shows that a parcel card was dropped off at my place on Dec 27th, and then the package was picked...

Hi All.. Looking for a little advice if you don't mind. This past Thursday I was in a car accident. We had crappy weather all day.  As I was on my way home at night, I was approaching a red light and tried to stop, only to find I was on a huge sheet of ice and unable to stop in time. I ended up...

A friend forwarded this article on to me, and I didn't see it posted anywhere so I thought I would share. They speak of one of our fellow members, a good friend of mine, and his crew over in the sandbox. I thought it was a pretty good article. And I can't help but chuckle about the mythical...

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you...... (you really don't want me to continue singing!) Hope you have a great day!

Someone sprung some random act of kindness on me today! I went to the post office this morning to ship a care package to my friend over in the sandbox. The lady assisting me was really sweet and noticed the address and asked who I was sending it to. She wanted to know what he does over there...

Half the office called in sick today, leaving me bored, and out of work to do. So I came across this on the web, and have spent a while playing with it. http://members.iinet.net.au/~pontipak/redsquare.html So far, I have made 21 seconds. I think that's about as far as I will make it too, I am...

I understand there is a phone number I can call to find out about Cadet Corps in my area. However, I am wondering if anyone on here is a CI or CIC officer at a corps in Edmonton, and knows they need help. I am looking to come in and volunteer and then hopefully become a CIC officer. If anyone...

Yes I used the search function before posting. I read through quite a few threads, I can't believe I read for hours on here tonight. For anyone who has read any of my previous posts, I was planning to join a local reserve unit as a Clerk. I have now decided, after a lot of thought about what...

I have been contemplating this for a while and I am having trouble coming up with a decision. I have read countless threads on basic training, but I am looking for personal opinions. I have applied to join a reserve unit as a RMS Clerk. The recruiter said that I can get on the weekend BMQ...

My medical has been back and passed from Borden for a while now. I got a call today from the recruiting center saying that as of today all applicants with a vision level of V2 need to have a questionnaire filled out by their doctor. She said it was really important I get it back to her asap. I...

I have just put my paperwork in to join the Army as an RMS Clerk. I was wondering if anyone who currently fills this position, or is knowledgeable about it could give me some insight. Information about both the training I will undergo, as well as the every day duties after I am trained would be...
