At 6pm I will be sworn in as a 2nd lieutenant in the army reserve. Then July 2 it's off to basic training followed by platoon leader training at a later date, as yet TBD.

So, wish me luck. I'm probably going to need it, as I think I may well be the oldest 2nd john in the Canadian army.

Good luck, Goof. You may be an officer, but I really don't know about a "gentleman" ...

Best of luck. Do not expect anything being given, I recently became the equivalent of a lieutenant and it is hard. You are responsible for the lives of your group, but your people usually come through for you. Always trust your people.
