    Good to see the St Jean dust bunnies still make appearances. When I was there in 99 it didn't matter how well you cleaned they would show up and usually 20 seconds before inspection

    I've still got my "cornflake" (Canadian Forces beret badge) that you get after passing the saluting test. That was in 1996 and although I'm no longer a CF member I cherish that little hunk of metal.

    At week 4. I got a written warning about my hair. It was all one length and halfway down my back. Hair clips and hair Gel became my 1st 12 mins every morning and also after PT. I refused to cut my hair and I got ridden hard for it. It was my act of defiance... lol I distinctly remember my Saluting test as I damn near dropped my bowler, because we also had to do a proper remove head dress to receive our cap badge.

    @@MrChefDK My 3 choices are Armour Soldier, Infanteer and Gunner. They asked for 3 choices when you first sign up. Still torn between being a tanker and infanteer though. When I wrote that message I was earlier in the enrollment process, now I'm about halfway through. I wouldn't mind the driving part, but I've been watching spec ops videos, especially the Canadian Patrol Pathfinders, and now I think I'm leaning more towards the infantry since the majority of candidates for specialized programs like the CPP are chosen within the infantry.

    You can pass if you can't swim. It isn't a mandatory requirement, but they will force you to jump in and try. There will be a swim test late in the course, and if you fail it you will not be eligible for top athlete award, but you can still pass the course.
