canadian forces

[blacknife]

i did just under 5 years as Calgary highlanders infantry. reserve though not reg force. i had been in cadets before and wanted to stick with something a little more real but did not want to commit to long service time. I had an amazing time in there and kind of regret getting out but thats how life was at the time.

in reserves everyone loves to be there, its more like a hobby to try to keep yourself in shape.. enjoy shooting things and have a possiblity to go overseas. the reg force guys there were a few that enjoyed it but so many of them were just counting the days till there contract was over.. be it two or 6 years or however many years away.

ive had a few friends go through air or naval and end up with some good qualifications when they got out 6-10 years later.



I really really liked shooting things, and had lots of chances to do that.
