If anyone reading this has an opportunity to take a re-postto engineer, I would STRONGLY recommend checking out that option. Biased opinion aside, as the only engineer unit in your brigade group, all sorts of interesting tasks will come up. Plus, explosives...! I'd say feeling a concussive shock wave rock through your body 600 metres away and in a bunker after spending half an hour molding great big horse cocks to fit into some concrete is incomparable to anything else available to reserves in Winnipeg. This might be a good thread to link with into the infantry and armoured links.
