5,2,1 can be completed in any sequence prior to 3 and 4. After 5,2,1, mods 3 and 4 must be completed in order- 3 then 4.

What did Col Dalton move on to?

Ack. They just are very busy. I didn't want to go there without being reasonably sure there was an error. I'll wait a bit anyways- it's a busy time of the admin year. I've got a few years to go.

Hello all, I was going through my MPRR the other day and since getting back into the reserves my CD time has been reset. My old service is on my MPRR- all the varying classes and dates. I looked into the award and it says service doesn't have to be continuous- so is that an error? I'm not in...

The application process takes a long while anyways. You don't sign up on Friday and jump in a truck on Sunday. One step at a time

I'm unsure of how to read that oldgate- is it or is it not possible? For some reason I keep reading your explanation as both yes and no?

It was unfair for me to introduce that. There is currently no evidence of that....just curious. But that was inappropriate for "public" pondering Maybe a trim of this thread, at least my "contribution" is in order before that gets legs?

His move costs more than most other moves in the same area? And his family works in real estate in Ottawa? Yikes. It is possible that it's all above board, even likely, but the optics. Gets worse before it gets better.

Also, Libya styled projections cost lots of money- but no Canadians die. Canadians expect the military to cost money- but they dont have the back bone for dead soldiers/sailors/airmen

Oh? The combat arms trades aren't as heavy with the politics? Since getting back in, and in arty,I'm very surprised by the emphasis of networking and politicking. I'm not here to change everything. It's just a new ball of wax and thought I was on my own.

All the elements get their time in the sun. The Canada First Defence Strategy, to me, appears very RCAF and RCN heavy. Expect many photo ops and new ops that flex those capabilities. From my own opinion of course.

Beauty. And you didn't spend 11 bucks on them.

I'm going to read some reviews on that knife. The ranger s were really pushing the woodsmans pal....but the reviews are mixed.

That's true on their durability. But they did last the four days and saved my hands- they cost me 11 bucks. I would have been choked if I had spent 50. I'm going to stitch the finger that had a blow out and see if I can't get another few hard days out of them. I just found that sleeping outside...

I hardly feel that someone who defaces anyone's memorial or tombstone is a member of civilized society.

I recently completed a wilderness survival course and one of the things I concluded was that having a set of thin nomes flight gloves around went a long way to taking the sting off manipulating the coals of a dying fire or any other fine manipulations I had to do. I wore them almost the entire...

In my recent conversations with senior leaders, more listening I should expand, the conversation is pretty much over. Afghanistan is done, we re back to the backbone of soldier skills. The skills we concentrated on prior to Afghanistan. The idea being we ll "spin up" to whatever we re called to...

I don't doubt the union stuff. It's unfortunate that Fantino is such an easy target for the.m to get press off of. I doubt I'll ever look at Fantino (what is the respectful thing to call him anyways? The minister?) and feel like he's getting treated unfairly. I like small government. So I guess...

In law enforcement the zipper fad comes and goes. I can't stand them- now I try and keep my boots as close to a running show with ankle support at I can. My 80 dollar merrells are the best boot for chasing, jumping, crawling I've ever come across. They are decidedly un-uniformly though. So they...

I'm a junior officer in the reserves. I'll give you my experience. I've been in the field with the guys, we do similar tasks lots of times where I can pitch in. I do the PWTs just like the gunners. Pitch tents, lights stoves, handle weapons, patrol etc. BUT- Last weekend while they did their...
