I got caught on that too.  It's reverse arms he's asking about, not rest on your arms reversed.  They are two completely different things.

PM to come.  Also, if this is for a cadet corps, the Sea Cadet Manual of Drill and Ceremonial (available all over the place) is, much to my horror, the tri-service cadet standard these days.

I don't have a CAMT 2-2 but I do have a copy of the RCAF's CAP 90 if that helps. 

The amusing thing about all the suggestions where an automated system might fail - from power failures to fin codes - has all been solved in the private sector.  Automated timekeeping systems are cheap, reliable, robust and any startup costs or maintenance is small compared to overall savings. ...

The cadet programme is now designed to have the senior cadets do pretty much all the instruction at the local corps/sqn level and the phase 5 cadets receive specific training on activity planning and execution.  If that's not what you've seen, someone isn't implementing the training program...

One of the major points the study doesn't mention is that the way of accounting for costs incurred by the CCO changed during that period.  Many goods and services that were rendered by the CF buckshee to the cadet program but were accounted as part of overall defence spending were suddenly split...

I suppose submitting pay on paper with signatures works just as well as any other method - and probably more cheaply - if it's all handled in-house but for those of us in the CIC, getting paid on time often seems to have the same odds as hitting the lottery.  We have to mail or courier our...

I guess I don’t see the issue in complete black and white.  If it was operational clothing or equipment, I’d totally be on board with the notion that kitting needs to go from the pointy end on back.  But things like mess dress and leather jackets aren’t worn operationally.  For buttons and...

Bumped - this is still available.

While smoking it might end up being an optimal delivery system for the patient, it also has the potential of medicating those around the patient too - with or without their consent.

For me, it's not the medication but the delivery system.  Doses of THC can be taken through nasal sprays or inhalers or some other method without having to spark one up.  You don't have to worry about stinking the place up and the chance of someone else getting the effects of your second-hand...

Actually, he didn't.  He said The line about politics came well known because of an earlier mistranslation of his work.

Eventually you'll have to talk to the local unit because they initiate the paperwork but I'd recommend speaking to the Regional Cadet Support Unit (or one of their Detachments if that regional has them) first.  They can help to identify any local units with vacancies and let you know what hoops...

When my wife was on maternity leave a year-and-a-half ago, she found a CANFORGEN on the matter. While on LWOP (like parental leave), as long as you are not frequenting the mess, dues are suspended for the duration of your leave.  You can still go to private functions at the mess (like weddings)...

Small correction, there is no such thing as CIC folks who are not CIC officers.  I'm thinking you mean civilian instructors but, you are correct, that's seriously not cool.  Dress for CIs is laid out in our regs as follows: In Barrie, where I attended the parade, the parade was well attended...

My friend, you are wound up way too tight.  If you're not careful you're gonna snap a mainspring.  Relax. 

No, not at all.  I think people are missing something important here though.  The civilians hired a cadet corps are not hired to fill management positions.  The job title isn't civilian employee - it's civilian instructor.  Their job description is in their name.  They are hired to help...

And then there's Denison Street named after Lieutenant-Colonel George Taylor Denison III.

If you'd been paying attention, you'd've noticed in one of my first posts I mentioned that you'd sometimes find "CIs" working in admin or supply because uniformed staff just isn't avaliable.  But the only mentions in regulations of civilians working as corps staff has them as instructors (which...

That doesn't really shed too much light.  What's this "authoritative position"? I'm positive that I know the process and I'd LOVE to hear about these "loopholes".  That the enrollment process involves both their cadet detachment/RCSU and CFRC, it would be interesting to see where the cracks...
