did your friend sign up at 12 service as well? did you call downtown or 12 service? if the answer to both question is 12 service... pm me your name, i'll tell the recruiter to do something. man sometimes i think i should be in recruiting. if you called downtown, and your friend got contacted by downtown recruiting center, then i can't do much about it, they're seperate from my unit and you just have to be more annoying and call more often haha

yeah cant go wrong with veh tech. i hang out with those guys almost as much as i hang out with the mse ops. although honestly, if weapons tech did more stuff, i'd totally want to be that.

yeah, i don't have hookups. but i have info. basically they're located at jericho garrison, which is along 4th avenue by the beach kinda. you probably already know where it is.

i'm not sure if they work on wed or thurs, because they're not actually part of our brigade. but anyways http://www.army.forces.gc.ca/12medical_company/
give them a call, there's a number at the very bottom. or call canadian forces recruiting centre downtown and they should beable to help you.

may i ask why you wanna join the medics?

ok sorry to dug up this old thread. I applied a few years back but never finish my whole application process. I'm serious this time around and I want to try again. Last time I applied at the richmond unit, I don't mind checking out other units if they have more openings. Check all the links and website in all the post almost all of the reserves related links is dead. is there new links or has all the reserve sites been canned?

they revamped everything.

You won't be able to check out most bases until the olympics are over, they're all sealed off for operational purposes, but I'm sure the recruiting centre downtown is still open.

Recruiting centre moved from downtown on West Georgia to another place in New West.

CFB Esquilmalt would be your best bet for Naval stuff since Vancouver really doesn't have any ships. You'd have to go onto the island for that kind of stuff.

Majority of positions here are for the Army side so anything to do with infantry, artillery, medics and service, located in the GVA.

You go to the individual units to get the application and your app would be forwarded to the recruiting centre.

oh if your eyes suck.. you cant be a combat arms (any battle trade, ie. infantry)
i mean really suck. like -3 or more. or perhaps -2.5 or more.
if you're -3.5 or more i think you cant even be an MSE OP (a driver).


edit: weapons tech trade is open.
o fuck that sucks.

my eye was -3 and its not -3.7 -.-
dam.

Well, you never really know until you go to your medical.

Or you can get lasik surgery... Though that may disqualify you from night ops.
