BMQ February 2012 - Who's going?
« on: December 20, 2011, 20:03:56 »
Just found out last week that I am scheduled to attend BMQ in St. Jean on Feb 6th. 2012.  Just thought I would post something here (I'm new to the site) and see who else I might be meeting in person once there.
Pretty excited for it to finally start, I have been waiting since Summer to get this going. I have recently picked up my running and fitness to get ready.

Feel free to say HI.

00010, that's Infantry, isn't it? There are a lot of jealous people out there wishing to be in your position, me thinks.

Good luck!

You can count me in as well.  Recruited out of London for Infantry, I'll be starting on the sixth.  I have to step up my fitness.  I had been slacking for a couple of months before the call.  Look forward to meeting you all there.

Awesome. You'll be right behind us, so we'll see each other around then. I was trying to get into combat engineers but it was so full that I went with infantry as my back up.

Don't be so convinced you're going any certain place yet, you have to do your DP1 and you will give your posting preferences but remember its where the CF has a manning need although i wish you the best of luck and hope you end up where you would like to be.

Ive assumed this too, but when I accepted my job they told me I would be RCR and that it should stay that way. I donno, if they started changing it or what. I asked about it and she just said that RCR is in my file for where I am to go after MOC.

My file manager told me the same thing, except that PPCLI is to be my destination.

Miler97, the infantry guys know which Regiment they are going to, just not what battalion. Thats how it works. They will know which battalion when they are done BIQ. They are recruited for a certain regiment and after BMQ they are sent to the appropriate battle school ( Valcartier for R22R, Meaford for The RCR and Wainwright for the PPCLI).
