Dearryan You'll find ATIS positions in various places on the west coast.  I can't speak for the posting process or ATIS requirements but keeping asking for Comox.  Esquimalt, Edmonton, Comox, and Cold Lake are major bases in the region.

I'll wade into the waters... Referencing the initial post, the descriptions may represent semantics as you say.    One may refers to "non-secure communications" as WHAT it is and "insecure method..." as HOW it is presented. The term "scrambled", in a telecommunications context, is a very...

Signal-Man I don't personally have objective information about MOSART.   Its still obscure to alot of us specifically as to what it implies.   For additional information, check out this site: http://hr.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/mosart/engraph/home_e.asp From my limited understanding, many MOCs have...

Ghost778 > "I'm making a joke and implying she eats too much." < HAHAHAHA I betcha your wife doesn't read this forum!  You hand might be found in the cookie jar without the rest of your body.

Check out this site. http://www.grazian-archive.com/quantavolution/QuantaSeries.htm "The Lately Tortured Earth" For conventionalists, both Darwinian and Religious, would balk at the idea of the moon forming 14,000 years ago.  Even if a portion of these theories hold true as scientific...

GO!! and George As a subjective supplement to the OT/remustering statements, about 20% of my WTIS unit are remustered members, most are ex-combat arms.  A few went civilian too.  I can't speak for other units or bases.  Remustering does happen and it works in these cases.

The blackhole mentioned earlier seems to be a result of the changes affecting recruiting and provisioning the CF. Since the late 1990s until 2004, the CF recruited heavily in semi-skilled and unskilled streams and provided entry plans for skilled streams.   In my own WTIS unit, many experienced...

Edward Campbell< However, BZ:  LCdr Quinn, MacDonald Dettwiler and to 'contracting out'. > Unlike the US, the CF cannot afford to be the leader in developing cutting-edge technology like Radarsat. The contracting out of some services is a viable option in this case, though, as mentioned its...

There are a number of LCIS/ATIS positions at CFS Leitrim.  I don't think you'l find much in the way of public information specific to Leitrim and its compliment breakdown.  From an LCIS perspective, Leitrim and all CF locations maintain general equipment relating to station communications...

Make him wear a blue T-shirt too.

Depending on your trade, position, and locations (1AMS is in a few bldgs), flight line is going CADPAT, maintenance is still in blue coveralls, and B-170 is a mixture of CADPAT and blues.  Theres a transition period for different units, but things are going CADPAT.  I figure they'll keep the...

The article talked alot about the results of the poll.  I'd like to read the actual questions and get a sense of the poll's objectivity and direction.  I lean towards Kirkhill's perspective. Canadians are isolated from most of the world's severest problems and form detached opinions and...

Hehehehe I remember trying to get my sister to do sit-ups and push-ups hehehehe I'm in tears laughing.... anywayssss... Friends are friends and training buddies are training buddies.  Real friendship is hard to find so don't dump a good friend.  However, training routines and diets are highly...

I don't know about you guys but this whole alien thing is creeping me out.  Sometimes though, there are logical explanations.  This is a true story. A few years ago, I had to repair a television transmitter.  I took off the top, looked down, and saw bread crust wedged in the corner of the...

There is no weight specification in recruitment.  However, excess weight may affect performance during the fitness test.  The bottom line is applicant must pass the fitness test and be medically fit. 

Until it changes, there are distinctive characteristic and cultural differences between the elements. Some units allow a standard of dress that may not be common in the wider military. I've seen specific ball caps and unit T-shirts being acceptable for dress of the day.  So what?  Depending of...

In all seriousness guys, you gotta take a trip up to Alert/Thule/Hans Island area.  Only then you will see how pointless the discussion is over Hans especially once the ice and winter sets in.  It is a rock, in the middle of nowhere, undefendable by both Canada and Denmark at present.  Future...

Sorry Menion, I was referring to the CF general recruiting entry plans.   Prior military service and trade experience of the applicants is assessed on a case-by-case basis.   We might be referring to different things.  Wheres Kincanucks when you need him?

Yeah, the description doesn't provide much context but its referring to the skilled recruit stream.

There is no recruit school by-pass from my understanding.  Taken from another perspective, recruits (NCM) enter the reg forces under three streams; unskilled, semi-skilled, and skilled.  You can find info and criteria in the CF recruiting site.  The skilled stream are recruits who were members...
