[@Strelnikov403]

Ricketts R0276E. What's the tune played during the march-on and and march-off?

[@JoshBortolotti]

The Duke of York and Comrades of the Legion

[@j_eldridge]

@@JoshBortolotti Now i could be totally wrong... but the march out song sounds a bit more like National Emblem

[@tintinwu2262]

@@JoshBortolotti is there rehersals before you do the grad parade? If one dal l on there, is the command yells in French or English?

[@JoshBortolotti]

@@tintinwu2262 Rehearsals for a week. Weapon drills in English, foot drills in French.

2019 and this was shot in 480p?? I'd shoot this entire event in 4K, with two shooters, burn DVDs for every member, only charge $200 for the full event and there wouldn't be any "copyright" on the footage. Congrats on graduation and hopefully a full and rewarding career in the CAF.

[@rfcdgaf]

Gives you a realistic glimpse into the state of caf equipment lmao

[@TheSeanBampton]

jay0422 damn right we were! You’re probably a armoured if you know about them right? These guy’s were pretty cool!

[@lospolloshermanos3349]

jay0422 Damn thats sick, I probably know every airforce that was in your platoon ahaha, does Arsenault and kirk rings a bell? They were both on different platoon so idk wich one was on yours but still ahahah

[@FoxyFilth]

Fuck man the film crew straight up robbing people. Also who brought the dog? lol

[@julienarsenault8531]

I was on that parade, and yeah, the dog was pretty fucking annoying. Believed to be a service dog, still annoying tho.

[@lospolloshermanos3349]

Jr Sorry for the late response man, but you’d have no problem doing it, I’m not a big guy either, 5’9 and only 18 when I did bmq. Some women on my platoon we’re all 5’4 or under, there was one that actually was something like 4’9. Height isn’t really important, what’s important is to have a good mental to get you throught it. Judging by your determination i’m pretty positive that you could do it without any problem. Don’t hesitate if you have any other questions

[@LambOfOdin]

Gromit!!!!! Favourite instructor

[@user-lz2vp2yn1f]

Know the names of the songs at the first and second march past?

[@Alex_4_Life]

Such a beautiful parade, truly gorgeous.. That's it, this convinced me to sign in. I'm going to join the Canadian Armed Forces. It's time for me to jump in and explore my limits!

[@jamisonescobargunn2722]

Whatever they're paying those photographers, it's too much

[@JoshBortolotti]

You dont like the 1990s camera equipment?! 😯

@@JoshBortolotti what month do they recruit at

[@MichaelSmith-ij2ut]

You got sworn in June 2018. How long were you in Basic for?

[@JoshBortolotti]

Since I'm ROTP, my basic was divided up over 2 summers. After I was sworn in I did 5 weeks, and this summer 2019 I completed my remaining 8 weeks.

[@seanstoyroom2021]

I wish my full Grad was on KZbin. Just have the March In and March Out: Octobet 29th 2009.

[@gaipa2006]

In the leadership and recruit school, do the Officer cadets get a full room to themselves? Yes or No?

[@JoshBortolotti]

Yes. See my Inspection layout video for the full overview.

[@gaipa2006]

@@JoshBortolotti what about when you are send for training and during your base stay, do you have a full room accommodation?

[@JoshBortolotti]

@@gaipa2006 I'll let you know once I reach that point.

[@gaipa2006]

@@JoshBortolotti thanks alot though for answering my concerns.

[@fengmaodid9113]

So your training was 13 weeks? I heard it got shortened to 10 weeks last year.

[@JoshBortolotti]

Officer training is longer. It's 10 weeks for non-commissioned.

[@fengmaodid9113]

Oh ok thanks

[@fengmaodid9113]

And how much physical training do you do per day? (Is it mostly physical training or class?)

[@JoshBortolotti]

You go for morning runs and have designated classes with the fitness staff.

[@spooky0.068]

@@fengmaodid9113 and lots of pushups 25 is a minimum amount but be able to do more like 35-40

I would have been there of not for hernia #2. And I'd be there NOW if not for hernia #3!! Good for you man. Good for you.

[@wantdatcadpat44]

Ayo this is in Saint-Jean right? I did Improv Drill competitions there with the Air Cadets lol

[@jeffho1727]

Just wandered in and checking out St.Jean. Did ELFC after Cornwallis. Congrats and welcome. What they have you doing now??

[@xxXPINOYCRUXxx]

How was this video issued to you? Did you have to download it online somewhere using a special link you’re given? And also, did you get to win any awards?

[@JoshBortolotti]

So my parents upon walking in were told that if they wanted a DVD of the event, they needed to pay $40 cash and wait a month or so for it to be mailed out. This was purely for the photographers profit. I put it on KZbin so all who graduated on this day could enjoy it now and forever. I did not personally win any awards.

[@JoshBortolotti]

@Chuck McKinnon I'm glad I'm able to help. If you feel inclined you should upload your video to KZbin as well!

[@captainblackbeard7840]

i hear a dog barking occasionally, does this mean my family could bring my dog to my graduation?

[@dfx_]

Do you know what that song was at 24:50?
