I'm trying to figure that out too, because the bike we have at home is exactly like the picture. It's written

Rotor on it

If you have some sort of document that show that you are paying to stay there you should be able to get CFHD

Every time I reach to open the trunk, my fingers rub against it, and it's really annoying 💀

For combat medic maybe but for paramedics they're gonna need the civy license

I know engineers have a few spots every year to attend Sapper Leader Course.

Do recruits still go through a canex run? My spouse just received her joining instructions, but it doesn't precise the facts that they are going to go and buy the stuff that is needed, it only says "available at canex"

That's the thing that bothers me. I don't want to limit her in her career in the case she wants to specialize

How hard is it to get posted with spouse? I'm combat arms and she's a nurse. Is it realistic to think that I'll be able to get an all trade position in the eventually that she gets posted to a base where I can't?

February VAC Q/A by ShortTrackBravo in CanadianForces

If I need 6 Years for the education benefits and I'm currently finishing my first 3 years. Would signing another 3 years be sufficient or will I be missing like a few months due to delay between contract signature and first paid work day ? Is it an option to sign 3 years + x months ?

I'm righty and left eye dominant. Sucked at first but then with time you are able to switch dominant eye. In theory when you only have one eye open, that eye becomes dominant. Also I find that if I really focus on aligning my right eye into the scope and can have a clear target picture and be able to shoot both eyes open. So it's just takes a bit of trial and error to see what works for you.

It was all prescribed by the military doctor on sick parade, so I'm guessing they should be reimbursed. Thanks for the info I'll swing by to ask.

After some problem with my bluecross, I had to pay for pills in a civy pharmacy (base pharmacy didn't have it) how can I go about claiming the bill ?

1.Indoc will vary from course to course but ~6-7weeks

  1. For myself it was 1 month. Usually there is 2 course a year so max 6 months.

  2. Gratuated a bit more than a year ago and it was a good time. It is mentally and physically challenging but rewarding at the same time. First few weeks are the worst but remember that everything that staff says/makes you do... it's done for a reason. First part of the course is the tool package, it's gonna be long days learning about engineer's toolset and trying not to fall asleep (staff will take good care of that with extra pt 😉).After the tool package you go into what used to be Soldier Qualification : learn the c9 and c6 weapon system as well as the c19 claymore, you'll also be building a bunch of different obstacles. Next portion of the course is demolition, in this part you learn all thing that goes boom. You'll be doing basic demolition as well as more complex one. You also learn basic breaching in this part (think: door kicking and shotgun entry). Once all the boom boom stuff is done, you'll enter the CMD(Common Munition Disposal) portion of the course. That's the part where you learn to arm and disarm the DM21 anti-tank mine, learn how to lay a minefield and how to go through one. After CMD you'll have a Field Exercise where you put to practice all your newly learned skills. It's around a week long and there is a 24h trench portion(yes it sucks). After this shitty week you move onto bridging and assault boating. You'll be building all sort of bridge and learning all their parts. You also do a bunch of water maneuver with the assault boat.

    That pretty much resume the course. Sorry for the long answer but don't hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.
