    Those cadets are probably more afraid of the male shower room and the mess hall food than jumping out of that tower. I don't know about this particular CTC, but if I had the choice between taking another shower in Vernon CTC barracks and jumping out of this tower without a harness, I would choose option B any day

      you did not want to reside in B34 at vernon this year
      of the 7 showers there, 2 were functional. Someone had waffle-stomped in another
      I was only told this, I was next door in B33, where all 8 showers were functional

    I'm in Cadets. Army Cadets. We did a winter expedition, and we didn't sleep outside the first night, because we showed up at the sight around 10:30pm and we still needed to be taught and set up our ten man tents. We also needed sleeping bags and other bags, a lot of stuff. The next night, though, we did. It dropped to -46 degrees Celsius. It sucked.

    • @sweetsounds152
      @sweetsounds152 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I may be taking it a little too serious and shouldn't sh*t on their motivation, but 1) they're army cadets, not CF (Army Cadets is a great program and the kids should be commended, but the distinction should still be made) and 2) In my so far limited experience in the Canadian Army (about a year), we get sh*t on for saying "hooah" or "oorah", being less than politely reminded (as you can imagine during training) that we are not marines. We just say "yes [insert rank]" or "no [insert rank]" as loudly and aggressively as we can.

    • @aprilme6654
      @aprilme6654 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Everyone in the CF uses it, a lot of cadets use it, air, army, sea it doesn’t matter, and CF officers in the colleges use it, it probably hasn’t been exclusive to the US marines in years

    Cool, but in air cadets we get to go gliding and actually do meaningful stuff. Ever seen a glider on a winch? (I think I have a video on my account of winch gliding) it’s a hell of a lot more fun than jumping 9 feet onto a slow zip line.

    • @yaldarahmanifar3619
      @yaldarahmanifar3619 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Emiliano Ghew exactly! Plus if Adam Polson wants to go there, ok. The basic para course is with out a doubt the hardest course in the cadet program get into, yes getting you're pilots licence is a pretty big deal and it is very competitive, however at least when it comes to getting your power or glider wings, there are multiple flying centres across Canada (Comox, Alberta, Gimli etc...) however there is only ONE centre that does the BPC, there are hundreds of applicants across Canada and only around fifty make it onto the course each year, not to mention if by chance you make it on to the course it is pretty easy to get RTU'd
      If you need me to continue, please talk to the multiple (former) air cadets who have gotten their pilots wings but joined army cadets to complete the course
      (I know this because my RSM was the CSM at para this summer and he said there was someone who was an air cadet)
      😸Have a nice day!

    • @OldSkoolRapping
      @OldSkoolRapping 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      This is the pre-para course for Ontario, not the actual jump course. Only a certain amount of cadets get selected from each province (most of which have their own "pre-para"). As mentioned above, there are approximately 50 spots each year for the entire country. The jump course is not intended to be fun. I guarantee you it is much harder than any course offered in the cadet program because it is a legitimate military course, and the PIs will treat you accordingly. As for you saying it is not meaningful, it is the only course that cadets can do that is rewarded with a real military qualification upon completion, which carries over to the CAF upon joining. At the end of the day, you're not a badass for being a cadet, especially one who flew in a glider. Nobody cares. This course is useful if you actually plan on joining the CAF and want to join a jump company because its proof that you're not a complete flake. Let me know when you become a pilot in the CAF and then maybe you can talk about what is meaningful or not.

      The magic of cadets is that we literally could not care less. We get to shout a battle cry, we get to do so many cool things that the rest of the population would daydream about as kids, so it's definitely worth some lads with boring lives mocking our fun.
      As for the military members, we know what kind of cadet you dislike. We dislike them as well. No one likes a "My dad is a CWO/ I already know all of this so I'm better" guy.
