I got my offer for HCA last Friday!  I sent the acceptance email, but still haven't heard anything back.  Do they usually acknowledge that they've received your acceptance? Thanks

and one going on Course 47 this year.

And right before Rememberance Day too.

Just the minutes on my memo each step of the way, up to the CO saying they don't support.  The PSO referral form outlines all good characterisitcs, then finishes off with "I do not support this OT". I don't think it was that bad.  I also got letters of recommendation from my previous CoC to...

So instead of starting a new thread, I'll add to this one since it is quite similar in nature.  Does anyone have any insight into the COTP selection process?  How much bearing does CoC support (or lack thereof) have on an application to highly competitive trades (like, oh, let's say SAR Tech)...

No, not CFB Halifax. I'm making sure to keep my CoC in the loop every step of the way, ensuring I'm not going completely behind their back.  But I still understand there may be a "target on my back", I'm just trying to minimize the negative effects as much as possible.  I'm still relying on...

Unfortunately, it looks like that may be the route I am going to need to take.  Thanks to everyone for the help and advice on the matter.

If it comes down to it, and my CoC says no, then the memo train stops there, is there anything I can do?  I've been looking through OT CFAO's and memo related CFAO's and so far I've come up dry.

So, I've submitted a memo and application for an OT through the COTP this Friday.  My WO said he supports it, but told me not to get my hopes up since we're in a small, specialized Sqn, and the OC is likely to not support it since we need the bodies.  I'm not sure whether or not I should be...

U/L is "Unloaded", so no weight.

Thanks a lot for the info.  Now I can properly inform my clerk. Thanks again

I have a quick question on this. I received my election papers in the mail last week, but it didn't inlcude all of my time.  As of March 2012, I have been a Reg F Mbr for 5.29 yrs, which is what is on my election paperwork.  However, I was a mbr of the PRes (Not on ED&T or NES) for 1.56 yrs...

Set this up to make the PT Test easily accessible and understandable. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzxMCfJ-JuFTb3JfcDJnZWhkQzQ/edit

We do, just that remote control feature would be pretty cool.
