I'm trying to remember most of what my BMQ was like, but it was a long wild ride.
I lived in 4 Section, Echo pod the whole course. So that was nice. Had a few good roommates that were good and drove me to better myself. Toews, Stevens, Yetman. All good guys who I graduated with.
Some key memories from BMQ:
Farnham was hella fun.
Falling asleep in class? Yeah I did that.
Got 92.61% final marks, second to top candidate, I was so proud of myself for that one.
Improvement in the first and second FORCES test, 9 points from platinum. Warrior test top 5.
Won the Section obstacle course with 4 minutes 53 I think?
Earned the nickname machine for a few days for my jumping jack intensity in class
Completed weapons drill first time with only one minor screwup which I fixed the second time around
Completed drill test on week 7 with 69/75
Earned the title 'Laundry King' for how much time I spent doing my sections and other people's laundry.
I enjoyed learning from our instructors, 4 Section commander Mcpl Boudrias was by far most people's favourite instructor. He gave us a lot of good advice for portraying ourselves, standing tall and driving ourselves for success in our careers. Never compromising and always learning and moving forward.
That's all for now.
