CAF Basic Training | Inspection Standards (BMQ/BMOQ)

Dislike the video if you can't pass inspection

bruh I hope thoses locks all have the same combo XD

How In shape do you have to be before recruiting??

I'm a Canadian citizen who applied 4 years ago and I did well on the CFAT test and they never got back to me. Still waiting for the call to move to the next step. I went to my recruiting office last month and was told that they will call me to do a medical test. The Canadian military is a joke.

Wait. Canadians get their own rooms in Basic Training? Wtf man. I had to shower with 50 dicks flying around.

Room standards are quite different nowadays - the closet in particular has a significantly different layout. I wonder why - we all have the same equipment (minus the gas suit coveralls, we don't get issued those anymore, they keep them and only issue them during CBRN classes).

not in green sector cubicles. Easy mode video lol

No DEU shirts to iron?!?!! Lucky!

Hi, it was bmq or bmOq ? Every person has a private room like yours? Thx

I’ve been considering joining the military for a while now, been trying to learn as much as I can and be prepared, I have a question that hopefully you could answer for me, I’m looking to join full time, at BMQ when we are eventually are allowed time “off” on weekend for part of the day, is the there stuff I can be doing at base, for example I saw that there is specialty training, would that be something I could do on the weekend? Or is that once you pass? And if not would you recommend getting out on the weekends due to extra sh*tty jobs at base? No clue if that’s how it is but let me know… Then one more about the weekend, should I be expecting to feed myself on weekends or can I still get all meals at the base during BMQ on the weekends “off” , sorry for the big paragraph. either way thank you for your service brother, I hope one day I’ll be serving along side you.

spoiled snowflakes, basic is to easy for these children today....

do you have to pay to get in ?

do officer go through exact same training as infantry in the Canadian military???

Someone was in a Hollywood platoon up in the blue sector.
I was up on the 8th in the green our windows dint open up more then an inch obvious reason of course

I always assumed they would apologize to recruits lol

We had our Mcpl come in and make us do drill under our bed sheets to get us to make the beds again since everyone slept on top of the sheets after lights out

Everything almost the same from 2004, Gear is different, gun lockers in cubicle is new to me, man I feel OLD hahahaha!! I bet people are still bangin in the broom closet!

Did you have to purchase most stuff on your own?

Finally someone posted the washrooms!! always wondered if there were showers per rooms or if it was a communal showers. Thank you so much for including it!

What’s your black ankle boots for? Service dress?

Seeing everything already laid out and the place cleaned and the bed made, activated my adrenaline response because I was expecting course staff to walk through that door at any second.

In other words, this really brought me back - even though we slept in our cots in the middle of the armoury.

This! I served the C SCOTs for two years.
And this puts a smile on my face. 😊 Id be stoked to be training with someone like this.

One dude in my platoon, his bed was not up to standard. MCpl had him doing about turns tucked under his sheets

St Jean cool

Wheres your DEUs?

closet looks alittle empty compared to when i was there lol no deus? also this reminds me of the first week after basic when i first got to gagetown, we had inspections there that just like at basic but to the dp1 standard and this kid from my basic in the next room didnt have his canteen full, and when asked why he said at basic they didnt have to have them full... god he got in a tonne of shit because that was the tip of that iceberg lol

Do you recommend bringing “ghost” toiletries for inspections ?

Wow CAF inspections are the similar too Young Offenders cell inspections, down to the tucked socks & perfect bedspread.

Ahh I remember those rooms and the weird zigzagging hallways and just the way the building was built in general was just weird

Finally got accepted after two long years. Im so excited!!!!

Nothing has changed in over a decade. I was sprawled out hammer puking in your bathroom after my first weekend off btw. And again every weekend there after. Oct-Jan 2009-2010. Kaeble Platoon whattup

The locks were always wrong

I would like to earn a uniform for myself so bad..

No dust bunnies hiding under the furniture? That sure looks different than Cornwallis.

I’ll be joining the reserves when I’m finished high school. Do you have any tips or anything?

Awesome Im planning in joining the Army👍

Very nice. As enlisted, we would have killed to have quarters like this. Good old open bay with 80 of your mates.

Did you pass the inspection ?

Question: Do you bring the clothe hanger yourself or they give it to you?

I was thinking of going the Canadian armed forces when I graduate

Brings back memories. BTW there's dirt or soap scum in the back wall corner the toilet stall.

Waiting for my interview... still wondering if I should got Comm n research or AESop, a bit scared of the motion sickness on AESop... BMQ will be a heavy challenge for me stress wise but I guess I will get on rails after the first 2 weeks... just hope my nerves will survive the first 2 subconscient is strong

So what happens if you fail inspection 🤔

How do you learn how to do the exact bed making measurements? Do they have a class to show exactly how to do the room for inspection?

Where are the rest of your uniforms? Hotel St Jean.....

Bmq/bmoq is a little bitch compared to it 4 years ago

You missed a spot.

damnnnn you guys had doors? I was in green sector we had open concept with wall dividers about 4.5 feet tall.

I see you're in blue sector! Which floor were you on? I was on the 6th when I was there

You use the same deodorant as me
