The Canadian Military, im joining Options

[speedfeen]

WELL

I am joining the Canadian Forces. I know there are alot of mixed oppinions about the force and well I have made the decision that i want to join. My whole side of my dads family has been in the forces, my great grandfather fought in the war. My grandpapa was a Major and my dad was a Corporal. I was in cadets and loved it.

I am just not sure what I am going to study and pursue for my career. I am in autobody so i may see if they have something similar to that, but I am interested in Weapons Tech or Ammunitions Tech. So many choices. Once I complete the testing they will tell me what division I am more suitable for and my decision will rest on what those results are, and my secondary eduction is going to help me too.

After that, I am off for basic training and posted somewheres, hopefully somewheres in Western Canada.

Canada has a Military? I thought Canada was all providences and such... I'm not trying to be mean twards Canada, i just didnt know... Sorry, i live so far away i know nothing about it... I've never even seen snow... But Canadian Bacon rocks, i had some for breakfast this morning...

Good for you then, the military is a fantastic thing that allows you to go to exotic places, meet new and exciting people, and then kill them. Blow things up, Defend things from being blown up, in 10 years when the US economy crashes, invade and take what you can

have fun with that, but while your away, Can i have your transmission, i'm really tired of auto and in desperate need of a swap. You wont be using it... it's cool right?

You should join the Canadian Coast Guard

Good luck to you, my friend here was in the airforce before coming to the the coast guard academy and he did autobody on airplanes etc. I guess its not autobody then... but you get my point

and i wanted to go into the army military, not naval or air force. But depends what job is available where, know what i mean. IF "auto body" is only done on the planes cause the vehicles go to local shops then i may go air force, but i want army, be on the ground and all that good stuff.
