Do you mean Cadet Second Lieutenants (unusual to use cadet officer ranks except in a few remaining school corps) -- or CAF Second Lieutenants?  Perhaps it is just unfortunate short hand for members of the CIC Branch?

And that is how it should work. Good on you.  But more correctly you were the only member of the CF for four years and you supervised the CI's and CVs who had no authority except that which came by way of your direction.  The civilian CO was not in command in the same way a member of the CF is...

Yes, and why should it make any difference to how a Cadet Corps is led and supervised?  Most cadet corps/squadrons are a long way from any CF Base.  The cadet detachment model is the exception.

While it is a general advertisment it is particularly directed at members with other Reserve or Regular Force service. Cadet Organization Administration and Training Services In addition to the Cadet Instructors Cadre officers, two new Reserve force occupations have been created, which permit...

Quite right. The reality is that at the cadet corps/squadron the CIC MOC not only includes "leading, managing the cadet program and delivering the cadet training" it includes serving as AdminO, RMS Clerk, Finance Clerk, Supply Off, Supply Tech, Training Officer, Operations Officer, Transport...

I presume you mean Operationaly Functional Point - A person without any former military service who enrolls in the Canadian Forces Cadet Instructors Branch is enrolled as an Officer/Naval cadet and may be employed immediately at a local cadet corps/squadron where on the job training begins...

I am little late in my response to this rant but it may be instructive to know that the most common thing that happens in this regard in the cadet organization is the cadet that does not want to go home from summer training.  He or she is hiding in a shower, hiding in a locker, they do not want...
