Agreed. Worth clarifying though DRMIS is not CGCS. CGCS displays material master data but it's not pulling it live from DRMIS/SAP. They mirror each other in what you see, but they're distinct systems. As for pictures, DRMIS/SAP can technically hold images attached to a material master record...

The messaging was lost in this one. The NCR return is specifically aimed at getting folks who are not entitled to kit to return it.

We finally found a use for it. OFC the most useful version for this type of thing is the one we bought the least of.

While time will tell, this was intended very much to be a short term solution while a better semi-permanent camp is built.

This thread is definitely taking a sidetrack from Latvia, but there is a trial going on with something very similar to what you're mentioning where the the claimant just uploads all the stuff. Not sure how it's going but folks are thinking the right way anyway

I still remember the QMSI signed me up for a NPF deduction for my sash so I can be awarded one upon my promotion. Was very clear that I was happy to pay for my own sash. I didn't understand why my pay was deducted without my permission but everybody whitewashed it.

Mandatory high level requirement: able to fire on the move - specifically in complex terrain while inverted (no not a typo).

I suspect our inability to think at divisional and theater sustainment levels are going to make these orgs clones of their Bde counter parts. Hope to be wrong.

One problem that has arisen lately is an L1 or an element of one will do something like this but forget they need to utilize stock or resources that is managed/controlled by another L1. BMQ is a great example as it uses a large amount of army field kit to achieve its aims. If there is no...

Lots of ok options at Carling, overpriced a bit but I can get a fair facsimile of a Donaire so it is all good

It is legislative so needs parliament to change the rules. Sounds like good way for the government to continue their support to the CAF by making the changes. In a dream world the legislation would be changed so anyone that hits the gateways to access the money can do so regardless if they...

All good, I have the right contacts to ask for the ground truth anyway :)

Hmmm will follow up with the folks I know (OC and SNCOs/WOs that run CSS orgs) and the CA G4 maint team but in general those are not concerns that have heard before. Not saying they don't exist just anecdotal is not always evidence. In any case if there are issues, while I can't help much, am...
