Sorry AgentSmith. I did a search for "Basic Up" and nothing came up, I hadn't realized in my excitement at finding the series that I was searching within a thread, not the whole site. After using Google for a full site search I do see the multiple threads about this, especially with older members complaining that people shouldn't be requesting it to be stickied. HOWEVER, I have found in watching the videos that almost every question that is asked about the recruiting process and BMQ in the forums by people who haven't searched at all and don't ask the recruiters is answered in them. You know, the ones like:
1) How do I do a proper pushup?
2) Where do I go when I get there?
3) How hard is it?
4) How fit do I have to be?
5) What happens if I can't take it?
6) Tell me in exact detail what happens at Basic.
All the questions that everyone seems to hate answering over and over again?
I'm not saying this thread should be stickied... but maybe one of the Basic Up threads SHOULD be and then these questions might not be asked as often, or at the very least it would be easy to point someone toward the thread. I've been lurking army.ca on and off for more than two years while my husband has been going through prep for joining and actually applying, and although I don't read every thread, I had no idea this resource existed, especially as in the Recruiting and Basic Training sections, threads get posted, chewed up and locked every day, it can be difficult to keep up with everything posted.
Anyways, I can understand if nobody wants yet another thread about this. I apologize again, and if requested I will remove it.
Thanks,
Ashleigh
