    Transgender in the CF (merged)

    You’re right. I’d be willing to go anywhere regardless of what the country’s “laws” are etc. It’s not their business to even know that I’m trans in the first place. How would they know? Tell everyone to drop their pants on the way into the country? There’s no way of them finding out unless...

    It is with my pleasure. I’m glad people found it that way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Transgender in the CF (merged)

    The biggest obstacle for me joining was the the whole showering/change room situation. I have not undergone bottom surgery (for my reasons..if you want to know specifically I can discuss that) so it was hard for me to accept that I would be showering with possible assholes who would make...

    Transgender in the CF (merged)

    As a trans man (FTM) currently serving in the Forces for almost 2 years now, I can shed some light or try to answer some questions anybody may have on the topic. After reading this entire thread, it still looks like people may want to be more educated. I'm still learning too (with the policies...

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    Thanks for the information. I’m looking to change my major to Bachelor of Management, as I think It would give me a better chance in getting commissioned as LOGO. I’ve already completed some core courses which would transfer from my previous degree path, so it shouldn’t be all that bad. Can you...

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    I requested an appointment also today to speak with the BPSO to discuss my options further. There’s so many commissioning plans it’s a bit difficult to choose which one fits my career path. I know that I’m not interested in doing UTPNCM. I don’t mind going back to St Jean either to do the...

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    That makes sense, I don’t blame them for not paying for courses that don’t relate to the job. I just can’t stand doing a business degree after already trying it, and why not finish what I started, considering I actually find most of the CJ courses interesting, haha. Sent from my iPhone using...

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    You’re right, and even 85% of Cpl pay part time isn’t too shabby while studying. I have funds put away for emergencies, so I’m not too worried about tuition. I am worried about what you first stated though, regarding to getting back into the Regs after reserves. I guess it’s all going to...

    I’m guessing that’s because CJ doesn’t really “relate” to the logistics officer job, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    Yeah, it seems wanting to do anything progression-wise it’s always being a well-developed Cpl - which I’m not saying is wrong by any means - just time consuming when you’re used to hurry up and wait. I appreciate the feedback. Which commissioning plan are you talking about? Direct entry...

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    So here’s my dilemma/situation...and before I continue with my story, I have currently served my first year in the regs as an NCM Supply technician. Academics: I hold a police foundations diploma (yes I qualified for MP, but lost interest in police work altogether), and it came with a bridge...

    Basic Training - Mentally Demanding?

    The best thing you can start with right now is not getting offended by anything/anyone. Nowadays, it’s very easy to offend somebody based on their personality, looks, hobbies, etc. It’s just the world we live in now. The instructors will pick on you, and other recruits might as well. The biggest...

    Purple Trade Question - Sup Tech

    There may be threads on this, but the only ones I’ve found are from the early 2000’s, and things have definitely changed since then. Please excuse me. I am a fresh out of basic (2 weeks ago) ARMY supply tech now in Borden awaiting my QL3 in January. My question is: 1. Since I am a purple...
