Sgt. Shanks:
I am wildely looking into becoming a member of the canadian
army. I don't know the procedure of joining. I mean not, as a cadet but as a
full member of the armed forces. As well I was in touch with a friend of
mine whome is from Cape Breton Island the tip of the Island. He is stationed
out of Gadgetown, what are the chances I will be in gadgetown. Looking for
any info. Thanks
