Last Wednesday, 6 August close to 200 “recruits” arrived at RMCC. The group stayed around the peninsula until Saturday when they headed off to Saint- Jean, PQ; where they immediately commenced an intense two week indoctrination period at the  Canadian Forces Leadership Recruit School. During the four days in Kingston, the recruits completed the in-clearance process and have started to learn basic military skills such as leadership, deportment, and drill.

They are slated to return to Kingston, Saturday, 23 August when they will commence a month of First Year Orientation Period (FYOP). They will be officially received into the Wing at the Badging Ceremony – all part of Reunion Weekend including the  Obstacle Course – 26 / 27 / 28 Sep.
