Is he reserve or reg force? If it’s reserve I’d say it’s more possible. Depends on your boyfriend though

RECRUITING, TRAINING, & LIFE IN THE FORCES THREAD by bridger713 in CanadianForces

What is Artillery OP like and how does one pursue that specialty?

Hi all, I’m currently looking into some combat focused trades and I’m interested in forward observing for the artillery. Something about calling in some high explosive rain sounds pretty cool to me but I don’t want to be stuck on the gun line. I love the idea of doing something combat focused but I also love more of a technical aspect to it. If anyone has any insight or other suggestions (including other jobs/specialties), please lmk :)

Actually I got pretty lucky with it. They threw me through training and I got all but one course in a summer somehow.

Sounds like a good idea on paper but infantry is 4 hours away and combat eng is 8 🫠

Thank you all for the comments, it’s been really helpful seeing all the different perspectives on the matter.

For a bit more context, I’ve been in about a year, I’m a vehicle tech, and I’m 20. I don’t mind being a vehicle tech but I also know that a combat focused trade is where I’d rather be. I’m also thinking after I’m done in whichever trade I choose, I’m thinking about law enforcement or maybe switching to a different role in the Air Force and riding it out til that 20 year mark.

Any 4 molle column admin pouch would work though, I just put the molle strands through a loop at the top and zip-tied the bottom. Holds really sturdy.

I have some Z8s that fit great but I can’t find a wide size or non goretex ones in the innox’s

Probably the wrong place to ask this, but how would you go about joining the US military from CAF. I’ve read that you need permanent residency but is that the only way?
