    DEU Buttons

    Does anyone know where i might be able to get a hold of the LOG DEU Buttons for the CF tunic. The new ones are smaller than the ones i purchased many moons ago(some 13 yrs ago, i think), and i only need to replace one. If need be, i will settle for the new smaller ones. Thanks

    What to do?? Need help/advice about Mod 6 PLQ

    OK, here's the deal. I took my CFJLC in 2001, weekend wonder course. A year later, they tell me i need to do my Field portion, because they changed to PLQ. And CSS trades now have to do the field portion. No biggee. I fight with my boss for a few years to get time off in the summer for my...

    questions regarding being a reserves advisor/tech advisor to a cadet unit

    It's a possibility. The cadet corps i support is affiliated to our service battalion, but i also have 2 infanteers who come out as well.

    Tech Advisors

    2861 currently has 6 Cpl's assisting the corps, 5 from my unit and one from another unit. I also have a few 'backups' in case someone cannot make it out to a training weekend.

    questions regarding being a reserves advisor/tech advisor to a cadet unit

    As a current reserve advisor, i can say that we (Cadet Corps CO and myself) do not put a limit on age/rank. However, the CO of the cadets corps has appointed myself as 'Senior Reserve Advisor'. This is due to the fact that we have 4-6 advisor's at our disposal. He has granted me authorization to...

    QL5

    Here is a question to think about. Who in the world, keeps changing these course titles?? I personally think it is ridiculous. Why not keep them the same? What is wrong with QL-#? What was wrong TQ-#? (Yes, showing my age) Now we have BMQ, SQ, etc, etc. This creates headaches, in my opinion...

    Wireless Internet

    Hi all, Just wondering if anyone knows of the policy WRT wireless internet  in DND establishments, and where i may find a copy. Have tried the CF Security Orders with no luck. I would think it would not be allowed due to the possible security breaches (someone sitting outside the building). Any...

    Role of Officer vs job of NCM [Merged]

    I know this may not relate to this topic directly; but just out of curiousity, say you wanted to go from officer to ncm (don't ask)? What would be the process? Is this inclusive of PRes, Reg, and CIC? Would you have to leave the forces for a period of time? Is there a written policy on this...

    LSVW and ILTIS Replacements (Silverado & G Wagon)?

    I recently took the course for the MILCOTS. This is what i took from the course; The maint folks will be given computers to plug into the truck and check fault codes (yes, the same computer your local GM dealer does for the same). This will allow maint personnel to inform the dealer of the...

    Cadets Joining the Reserves - Can it be Both?

    Whats wrong with doing both?? I can see there may be problems with some units; however, can that individual not bring back the experience he gains in the reserves to help teach his/her fellow cadets? Any training with your own unit(reserve) has priority. Having said that, the member can be...

    Need Advice

    Why do people say that??? Cadets is what YOU make it. Not the CI, Officers, or any advisors that you may have. They are there to help YOU run your corps. I don't think people try hard enough, and those that have this comment to make, did not put enough effort into the corps. Don't expect the...

    Trans to CIC

    I don't know if anyone can help me. If i were to trans to the CIC, how can i find out what rank and quals they will give me. Can i find out without doing an appl, or is there some way i can figure this out myself?

    About the cadets/army?

    You can join Cadets now, and when you turn 16 and meet the requirements, you can join the reserves. If your time allows, you can participate in both; however, if a reserve training exercise falls on the same night or weekend as the cadet unit, your reserve unit takes priority. Stay in high...

    LSVW and ILTIS Replacements (Silverado & G Wagon)?

    Mike, I can see where you are coming from. However, how can the upper echelon expect us to do our job if we don't have the resources. Do our LSVW's need to outnumber our ML's and HL's put together???  Our unit is growing in MSE Op' s; how effective are we going to be, doing DP's and convoy...

    LSVW and ILTIS Replacements (Silverado & G Wagon)?

    I had an opportunity to check out the new G-Wagon while on course in Borden; although i didn't drive it :'(, i did sit in one. I know they are very reliable having been in use by other forces around the world for many, many years.  To those that have driven it, what do you think?  Was it a wise...

    Problems with courses

    I've already tried that route (winter courses) to no avail. I am told i'm qualified CFJLC, minus Part 6. It was my understanding that non-combat arms are not required to take it unless they plan on being Sgts. The other problem i have is getting my QL5 (again, due to work) to get my MCpl. I was...

    Cadet Field Gear

    All you really need are combats (maybe 2 sets), and maybe webbing for the senior cadet ranks to carry things others may have forgot. And to distinguish them from junior cadets. In the corps i volunteer with, things like rucksacks, windpants, 3 season jacket, and sleeping backs are issued to...
