July/August BMQ Borden or St-Jean, anyone going?? ( navy reserves)

[Prairie Cowgirl]

Hey, just wondering if anyone from here will be going to either Borden or St-Jean this summer? 

I thought that I was going to Borden, but was told recently that I could be going to either one.  All I know for sure is the dates that I'll be going.

My parents live in Ottawa, so it would be nice to go somewhere that would be closer to them.  I'm not sure which place is closer?

I took my ID picture last week, so hopefully I'll be getting my uniform and other kit this week *crosses fingers*.  Oh and I'm going to be learning rank structure and some other things this Tuesday.

Then Mexico on Friday!!!! Can't wait.  ;D

Yes, my unofficial date is 23-June-07 for Borden.

Really, my unconfirmed dates are July 2nd-Aug.31st, for Borden.....

How long is your BMQ course?  I thought it would be 13 weeks.

 

[Prairie Cowgirl]

Yeah it's 13 weeks but I'm doing pre-BMQ in my own unit.  I'm doing the first aid course this weekend, and have just started doing the online stuff as well.  I will also have to do my WHIMIS training before I leave, so I've been told.
