Not sure really. I don't know if any of these played any roll but as far as experience and knowledge I do have... I have been since I was 13, I am now 23...I have some univeristy courses under my belt as well as college. I can speak French and German fairly well. I did pretty well in my...

Short and Sweet. Thank you very much Are you allowed to cross train specialty courses in other Combat Arms trades or Army Trades...or is that just a general no speciality training outside your trade? thanks again Cheers, Steve Wollen

Hello All, Not sure where to post this question, and i couldn't find the answer anywhere else, so I will just ask since it is just something i have thought about and wondering what the answer is. I am going off for training as a Crewman in July. I know this will be my trade and such, and there...

Congrats on all wo got selected. I will be attending basic in St.Jean on July 4th (reporting July 2nd) Looking forward to meeting you all. Anyone have any tips on quitting smoking :P Tried everything, as as well as I can run, I know if can quit before Basic, fitness will be a breeze. Anyone...

Can one still apply to the reserves in a C.A trades, or is it full there as well?

Thanks for all of your insight.

Thanks for the information, I will look into that further. Would I have to serve my minimum 3 years before transfer? That is fine with me, as I am prepared to make the commitment to whichever occupation I go into.

Thanks for both answers. I checked the AES Op loung, great site, great information, thanks for the help guys. Regards, Steven Wollenschlager

Hello, I am looking for any info on requirments for the AES OP occupation, as none are stated on the Canadian forces website, nor were any sepcific requirments brought up to me when I added it as one of my 3 primary choices on my applicaton. Anything information would be great. Regards, Steven...

I looked into this. Looks pretty interesting. What math cred is needed? I am still hoping for something to open in the Combat Arms trade, but NCI OP and AES OP both look pretty cool as well. I was told my processing has begun so I will be having my testing some time this month. Heres to hoping...

Hello, I recently applied to the CF as a Navy Combat Information Op, and was contacted by my recruiter today knowing my interview, medical and aptitude test would be coming up soon. I am simply just looking for some first hand insight into this trade. What kind of things can I except if and...

That is true, I did post that. But, in regards to gettnig education, and perhaps, actually learning something that is pretty cool, I think i can bend my own rules a little bit. I still have a few months before anything is official anyway, all I am set for is my tests and such in a few weeks...

Hello All, I did apply to become a BOSN, but it is also full. Upon looking further into as many occupations as I could, I decided I would probably enjoy being a Naval Combat Information Op. It seemed quite interesting, alot of cool things to learn. And I notice there is speciality training...

I did indeed look into Boatswain (BOSN), and I was told the occupation was full by a a Recruiting Officer at my local branch. It did indeed look interesting, and I was bummed to find out it was also full. And yes, I have called the Recruiting center a few times to inquire about availability of...

Thank you both for your responses. I really appreciate it. I would hope that Combat Arms is open by next year, but I also will take to heart what you have said. I do plan on working on what I can during this limbo stage, because my ultimate goal is to get into the CF as a member of Combat Arms...
