    Problems and Bugs

    I think I know what was going wrong, at least for me. I had the secure browsing feature activated on my facebook account. I just shut it off, to test it, and now Afghan Operations is working just fine. Funny thing is, I have had secure browsing tuned on for quite some time now and didn't have...

    The following link should answer many of your questions http://www.rmc.ca/adm/ccus-encu-eng.asp The first step in University admissions, like so many things, is making sure you at least make all of the minimum requirements, then making sure your application is competitive by improving areas...

    Joining the reg force with only Grade 10?

    Not all of us live the same lives, and if someone is willing to share something like that it is not for us to judge. God can't make all of our lives perfect or our paths straight.

    SOES_vet --------------> SOES_v

    Vet sounds a bit too military and apparent for an outdoor education school. Plus SOES_v rolls off the tongue better.

    Success Stories

    I think my overall strategy of working to keeping my combat readiness fairly robust has been paying off. I have been moving up in rank fairly consistently as a result. even though some of the other attributes are lacking a bit. Getting my CR up in value wasn't all that difficult when taking...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    As it has been mentioned before, you should have had the medical exam before your fitness test. Well that is at least how they did it at my CFRC, so I am a bit unsure on what is happening. Regardless they do medicals for every application as part of the recruiting process, in the same way...

    So I had my interview yesterday..

    Good on you for keep chugging along. That is all you can do if you want to keep seeing success. As a bit of perspective, Officer positions are all fairly competitive and this was expressed to me several times during the application process. After I was sworn in I was able to talk with one of...

    Toronto Reserves

    I was at 32 Svc Bn last night and inquired about the recruiting goals for the fall. If I understood correctly, they have spots left for both Officers and NCM, for the fall course(s). The officer I spoke to also expressed to me that he is unsure if he can meet those numbers, based on the length...

    Cool, thanks for the heads up. A little surprise and mystery is nice to have I guess!

    Mission Editor

    Fun times! Question though. The mission difficulty in the editor is between 1-120. I arbitrarily chose 75, because it sounded kind of hard. Is there a way to translate this difficulty parameter into CR vs. CE? edit:spelling

    Did Nazi scientist save Allies from Hitler's deadly gas?

    There has been quite a bit written about the German A-Bomb program, and I believe the consensus, within the physics nerd community, is that, regardless of Germany's broken industrial capacity, they were fairly far away from developing and producing atomic weaponry. This can be attributed to...

    War In Afghanistan Caused Surge In Canadian Forces Applications

    I hear ya. I too had a short stint as a security guard, and I always dreaded going on shift with the super gung-ho guys. While these guys were preparing for WW3, and thinking every incident was the next 9/11, I couldn't have helped but thought that it would have just been easier to have just...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    Glad it all worked out in the end, and yes, the spatial orientation portion of the CFAT, is generally considered to be the hardest part for most people. That said, and I once mentioned this on a similar thread, you can train yourself to get better at those types of questions by drilling lots of...

    Hi Scoty B, Thanks for the reply, and for the welcome. In fact, I am in the very final phase of the recruiting process, and I will be starting my training in the fall. I am really excited to have finally joined the CF family, and I am anxious to get started. SOES_v

    War In Afghanistan Caused Surge In Canadian Forces Applications

    This shouldn't be news to people in the CF or people that have been following the recruiting trends but I found this article had some interesting commentary. I especially liked the comments about the recruiting standards of the CF. "We're not looking (for) a candidate who just wants to kill...

    Need Advice - Reporting a Possible Lying Applicant

    Absolutely. This is why I went and asked for advice, and why I asked if I was stepping out of line. But one thing I carry with me, is the advice given to me by someone who's profession is exploring his interactions with people. He told me "If you feel there is doubt, there probably is. It may...
