Nikole Van Duyn Just work out a lot. The better your fitness, the easier the course will be. -Work on your chin ups (do at least 7. More the better for pre para) -mile run (try to run it under 6:20) -practice your push ups (sets of 25 because you’ll be doing a lot of sets of 25 at the course 😂😂😂
I led the detachments from the 12th Special Forces Gp that flew NOE in 2 US SOF CM-130s up to Edmonton CFB in 1976 to participate in a joint training operation with the Canadian Airborne Regiment (part of which was to become qualified in Canadian airborne operations / and the Canadians in ours). At the end of the operation, we were awarded our Canadian Parachute Badges and the Canadians were awarded ours in a shared ceremony on the parade ground. I can assure you that every American proudly wears those Canadian jump wings with fond memories of the time we served side-by-side with the "Gallant Men of the Great White North."
What a wonderful video. Earned my wings over 30 years ago and proudly wore the maroon beret in two operational theatres. The pride shown in the faces of the graduates and instructors was fiercely real and well-earned. Well done. Ex Ceolis. Airborne.
Anyone has the courage to jump from an airplane into the void Will have the courage to survey any challenges that will arise in this life And will never give up the objective AIRBORNE FOREVER
The cadet training is awesome! Even if you don't go on to a career in the military. Confidents, discipline, respect, and the value of team work! Huge!!
I live in England, my late father served in first battalion the British parachute regiment from 1958 to late 1969 he passed out as top recruit in 1958 at the age of 28 and a half years old , British para training back then was brutally tough
The beauty of getting these wings as an army cadet is if you join the Canadian Armed Forces, you are permitted to wear these on your reg force uniform since you are recognized as being basic jump wing qualified :)
I was on this course in 1977 (Serial 7711) at CABC Edmonton: 3 weeks pre-para PT (& this afternoon 6 months of my own personal PT - I practically had muscles on my breath!) followed by 1 week at the Mountain Outward Bound school, and then Jump School. best summer of my life.
there are a number of parachuting and gliding courses within the air cadets if you are interested. theyll give you your gliding wings and a parachuting badge.
Good on ya guys.."Poor Preperation means piss poor performance"All you guys smashed it....Must be very proud of yourselves and rightly so.Well done...x green beret...
Hope COVID doesn’t get in the way of people who are getting sent to this opportunity this summer! Same with anyone who got a nice advanced camp or gliders/powers, hope this shit straightens itself out! Especially if it’s their last year in the program and they’re up to lose it for good 😔
It's not the Airborne Regiment tshirt. That one is different and has the Cap badge of the Canadian Airborne Regt on it. These maroon shirts are just for Canadian Airborne soldiers that do the course or are in jump companies
Hell the Canadian Cadets get 2 do same training as regulars that complete that course for there 'Jump Wings'!! I was a British Army Cadet & did some pretty lit stuff with them.... but the Canadians doing jump school is SICK!!!! But hey well done!!
I got my wings in Cadets in 98'. I also did exchanges to the UK and found you guys are a lot more Army oriented. I remember doing Section & Platoon Attacks with blanks. It was awesome!!!
I was apart of 2736 Royal regiement or Canada a couple good years ago. Good times unfortunately I never got the chance to get on b para hopefully I get a chance in the military to actually get it done
Good luck to all of them. Because it's a huge responsibilty being a Maroon, Machine. I trained with Paras. And i worked for H.M. Regimental Veterans in the U.K. And being part of them, brought good & challenging things. Sadly, some x military r jealous. And bug you. I was verbally attacked by a seniile old man. Who claimed to be x REME. but he was jealous as fxxxx. Sad.
What's all that face and neck wiping about at 2:12 mins? Our (Brit) drills remain the same as our predecessors' during WWII so it's a new one on me. Don't you have leg straps on your containers (2:56 mins, Outdoor Exit Trainer)? They prevent the container swinging up and injuring chest/face. Neat that you jump with snow shoes - don't have much call for that over here...
Outstanding!I wish we had this in the US as Army JROTC (Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps) cadets.I wish i had gone through Jump School first as a cadet so by the time i had finished Basic Training and Infantry School at Ft.Benning Georgia they would have already assigned me to my Airborne unit in the Army.I guess many American parents would object to what your Army Cadet Program sending their kids through Jump School.Fricken sad on America's part in my opinion...
I know this is a six month old thread, but the U.S.Army ROTC cadets do go to Military schools(Combat Dive, Jump, Pathfinder) usually between years 3&4(sometimes 2 depending on the school CSM). JROTC would be highschool kids in America, and I pretty sure the Canadian Cadets are college level Cadets.
No, cadets here in Canada begin in the first year of middle school. If you are talking about officer cadets in the Canadian Armed Forces then they can start when they're 16.
@@tintinwu2262 No. I got that at Ft. Benning during Basic Training. My Drill Sergeants were not scary. I found them to be really funny guys but I don't dare laugh because we could do push ups all day. The Airborne Instructors were great comedians.
Michael Maxwell if you get the sign up sheet I know for my corp (19 portage) it tells us about the training and the requirements (if any most of the time it tells the age and the star level that needs to be completed
mil tac junkie I hope to do para next year and I know the requirements like push-ups,pull-ups, running, and sit-ups and that kinda stuff but what sort of drills, exercises/activities and tests do you do? I'd like to know so I can get a head start sort of To get my wings is my #1 dream
To enter the Canadian cadet program illustrated in this video you must be a Canadian Citizen or legally landed immigrant with paperwork and be between the ages of 12 and 18. Other than that it is a matter of finding your closest unit and enrolling.
Great effort. The only problem I have with this is that the cadets are NOT AIRBORNE and neither are the CIC/COATS adults staff. "Airborne" is reserved for soldiers and these people are NOT soldiers. The comment that the there is "a mission" still to complete after landing is not true. They should NOT be wearing AIRBORNE tee-shirts.
I did the Airborne Course as a Cadet in 1998. You earn the right to wear the wings and the t-shirt. My Medals and Army Combat Badge were earned the following years as a soldier.
In Canada you can join the Primary Reserve at 16 and the Regular Force at 17, but in both cases if under 18, you need written permission of a parent or legal guardian. If under 18, you also cannot be operationally deployed outside Canada.
Amazing how there are actual serving soldiers in the Canadian Army, both Regular and Reserve, just dying to get a Jump course, and they give it to teen-aged cadets. Not cool. And for those 16-year olds who got the course, well I guess you may technically be entitled to wear the maroon Airborne t-shirt, but maybe, just maybe it should stay neatly folded in your dresser until you've actually become a soldier and served in an operational Parachute Company.
I did my Jump Course as a Canadian Army Cadet , then multiple tours in the Australian Army. If you're saying those t-shirts should only be for Operational Airborne Units. Does that mean those units actually jumped in Combat? I'm curious when the last Canadian Infantry unit jumped into action? So maybe, just maybe most of us need to put our t-shirt on the shelf.
I got accepted this year!!! I’m so excited and nervous haha
Update: I passed and got my wings!!! Glad to be apart of the airborne family!!! 🔥🔥🔥
PM me? I did the course last year and I'm planning on being at the grad parade this year.
How did you get physically ready for it. I am hoping to do it in 3 years.

American and Canadian Airborne schools are almost identical, makes it safe and easy when conducting joint operations
Great work, makes me proud to be Canadian.
yes, hell yeah!

That PLF at 6:23 looked pretty rough..
But any jump you walk away from... is a good one.
Took course in 1982 in Edmonton!!
The now disbanded (and disgraced) Airborne Regiment of Canada t-shirt; nice touch, good reminder.

I'm better the guy wasn't crying because he got wings he's crying because blood wings would be painful
The Elder Scrolls you mean like what the marines do for their gold wings?
Lol those guys go hard, they drink and then your going to get hammered by every single instructor for gold wings.
This is the 3rd vid ive seen your comment on😂😂👌
Damm
0236 "If you piss off gravity it will send a planet up your ass" Airborne
So basically its no different what the CF would do.
As a royal Canadian air cadet done my 2nd I am didsapointed they did not accept me into my camp this summer :,(
Emotional
when you are jumping somewhere, it is a mission, it is not done, not over but why?
The mission starts once you land...to achieve a military objective such as capturing a bridge crossing.
What's all that face and neck wiping about at 2:12 mins? Our (Brit) drills remain the same as our predecessors' during WWII so it's a new one on me.
Don't you have leg straps on your containers (2:56 mins, Outdoor Exit Trainer)? They prevent the container swinging up and injuring chest/face.

2:12 checking the helmet straps arent twisted
2:56 container wont go that high cause there is the reserve parachute that is blocking

Can anyone let me know the requirement of this program?
