    Medical Technician ( Med Tech )

    You will be quartered at the Delta Hotel in Moncton while doing PCP. It (and your rations) will be paid for by the Crown and will cost you nothing. You will not be allowed to "live out" and your assigned quarters will be at the Delta.  Not sure why you would want to live out. The hotel...

    Next QL3 for Med Tech?

    There is also a plan in the works to decrease the backlog of Med Tech candidates as we move forward with the new QL3 Med Tech curriculum which is supposed to start in September.  I know a number of people are working on the plan so it has to be a serious option being considered. There is not...

    New D Arty - LCol Bishop

    Except that the RCA has both a D Arty and Regt Col.  It is my understanding that the RCA Regt Col deal with he heart and mind issues, Regt traditions, regimental senate, HCol's etc and D Arty is the adviser to the CA on technical arty and RCA personnel matters.  MC

    Two CF members arrested in Petawawa over Cpl Bloggins Facebook page

    Funny, that is not the advice I received from my JAG Officer(s) at the time when I issued a warrant on two different occasions.  Warrants were executed (in Canada, on a CFB) and subsequent prosecution took place without issue.  Both of these instances occurred since 2008. MC

    Two CF members arrested in Petawawa over Cpl Bloggins Facebook page

    Oh, I am not so sure about that.  All that you would require is a CO who is has reasonable grounds to believe that the phone has information on it that is in contradiction of some part of the NDA and that the information contained on the phone is required to afford evidence with respect to the...

    From Paramedic to Infantryman

    The MedA role of being in the rear and pushing Med Tech's forward is no longer a supported concept.  This was an employment concept in the past. You will not find that doctrinally / policy anywhere and the new Med A Scope of Practice / Protocols and Procedures Manual supports this move to have...

    From Paramedic to Infantryman

    Sure, you can specify anything you want, shows you are keen.  The tasking reality will be based on the needs of the service, your skills and attributes versus those of your peers, a bit of luck, and the whims of the CSMs / RSM when they are moving people about the ORBAT in pre-deployment...

    From Paramedic to Infantryman

    You should note also that the QL3 Med Tech course is changing sometime this Fall.  It is also expected that the RQL3 and RQL4 Med A will follow suit the summer of 2015 to keep pace with the new and improved QL3 Med Tech program.  Adding a bunch of combat medic type stuff (including a chunk of...

    Which 50% are arbitrary?  Please, show us your list!  Almost all of them have a great strategic impact on the functioning of the CAF.  The rest are in support of international commitments, or professional development for the GO/FO. Maybe a few of them could be down ranked, but arbitrary.... I...

    Winter training. Hands, feet, and head.

    This is super important.  It always amazes me when even experienced soldiers wear the mukluk without the complete system and are cold / uncomfortable.  Also make sure you have two pairs of duffle socks, one to wear and one to dry.  Also be careful when pouring fuels in the cold... especially...
