Doing my testing for the West Novies in Aldershot on the 23rd of November. It's nice to be potentially getting somewhere!

Congrats man, best of luck with your basic whenever it may come!

I haven't heard anything yet. The most I know is there may be a winter course. I've got no dates though or no guarantee of a course.

What unit are you guys joining? I've put in my application to the West Novies in September and still haven't heard anything. I guess they were without a recruiter for a few weeks which I'm sure ground things to a halt. Just hoping things pick up soon.

I already have, and my files should be transferred from CFRC Halifax to Aldershot by now. I'll be calling tomorrow to make sure. The process can't take any longer than Reg Force Infantry can it? haha I heard rumors of a winter basic that may be run, hopefully I can finish up the process and be...

So am I, where are you from bud?

Sorry dude you misunderstood, I applied July 2009, not the 9th of July 2010.

Yeah I hear ya haha I'm just hoping my luck will change this April. If not I've got an application to the British Parachute Regiment that's waiting to be dropped in the mail. Plan B  ;)

Applied in July 09 for Infantry, all my testing/ medical/ interview has been done. Adding Combat Engineer and Armour to the list of trades since I was told by my recruiter I should have backup trades in case the Infantry doesn't recruit anyone else this year. My file is open, just nothing is...

A beard so manly the ladies quiver by just gazing at it... a wondrous thing that is.

You know it! Give em' a few years and they'll be competing again. And just wait until the Atlantic Schooners come to Hali (thats right Halifax, not Moncton) and I'll be there, not freezing my can because as you well know, the only cold thing in fall/winter in Nova Scotia is the beer, definitely...

There ain't no shame in it. Besides, I'm an Oilers fan... and they just scored lol good stuff.

Haha well thats a bummer. Ah well fine work none the less!

Some good ol' Nova Scotia ingenuity right there let me tell you me!  ;D

Keep the faith bud, I've been waiting for the Infantry since July 2009. Like everybody else said, focus on making yourself the best possible candidate and that additional time could make your training even easier. Best of luck!
