    CPC Leadership Discussion 2020-21

    Partial cleanup of the thread, if you're looking to discuss Gun Control, that's been moved to the Great Gun Control Thread 2.0. - Milnet.ca Staff

    New ‘poly’ uniform dress for Army females

    Doesn't matter what the ADF women think, a man has declared it looks like a potato sack so that's all that matters. This is the way.

    2021-2022 OFFICER PRODUCTION PLANS FOR TRAINED REGULAR FORCE NCMS

    What do you mean, "How does he gain access to it? The BPSO?" Are you asking how your CO gets access to the 4495 so he can enter his comments electronically?  It's probable that someone along the chain scanned it, then simply used the Adobe comment tool to add the CO's comments and then he signed...

    Liberal Minority Government 2019 - ????

    It should not need to be said at this point, but derogatory/mocking nicknames are contrary to the guidelines. You all know better, next time warnings will be given. - Milnet.ca Staff

    *NOT a troll question* wet dream while on course.

    And, on that note, locked as the OP has more than enough info to consider their options. No need to continue beating a dead horse while this swirls farther down the drain... As always, if someone has something beneficial to post, please contact one of the DS. - Milnet.ca Staff

    Tapping into the next generation successful for ADF recruitment

    You are right, we perenially don't have enough people but it's trained and experienced people where we are hurting the most and that's not a recruting issue. We tried the massive surge in recruting during the height of Afghanistan. Ramped up the numbers we brought in, set up a bunch of...

    Tapping into the next generation successful for ADF recruitment

    Doing the same of...what? Since I started looking at the recruiting dashboard 4-5 years ago there has never been a problem with having an abundance of applicants for the vast majority of positions in the CAF.  The problems lie in other areas that have nothing to do with people walking through...

    "Project Inclusion" to cut board photos in holistic effort to promote diversity

    Imagine what it's like for the MP career managers.  :rofl:

    CH-178

    Yep, the coverup was so well executed, the Defence Minister spoke about it publicly when the deal was signed... He even said which company the lease was with and more... And then, wow, the fact Canadians were piloting them eventually came out as well.. Amazing what one can find via Google.

    MP (NCM) Recruiting 20/21

    The August QL3 is not running. The soonest you will get on course will be Jan (maybe) with a Grad in May (maybe). Lots of balls are in the air...

    Space Force - Netflix Comedy

    Well...I've watched the first few episodes of this last night and as much as I want to love it, particularly given the stellar cast, I just can't say I like it. I can't even say that I find it humorous.  The best jokes so far were in the trailer, the rest of the comedy is forced and cliche. ...

    Spouses and HHTs

    I've sold a house, in situ, using e-signatures alone. Makes life super easy and really speeds up the offer/counter-offer process.

    Trump Orders some US Troops Out of Germany.

    Thanks, but I know the process exists. It's just not the circus the Supreme Court is, yet.

    Trump Orders some US Troops Out of Germany.

    The really interesting thing is this administration is the first time in my entire life that I've heard anyone ever insinuate that just because someone served at a certain rank in the previous administration, they are therefore beholden to them and/or of like political views. I suppose the...

    The Post-pandemic Canadian Armed Forces

    Yep, and this can cause some weirdness. I knew one guy who OT'd as a Sgt. As it was voluntary, he had no vested right to pay so he dropped to Cpl 4.  Four years later, he hit 20 years and retired as a Cpl with his 40%. His pension calculation was based on his salary as a MCpl and Sgt in his...

    Spouses and HHTs

    And that's the absolutely ludicrous part of this policy. A CO in Wainwright can authorize an annual leave pass for one of their pers to get on a plane to Montreal with a transfer of planes in TO, with the province having 608 active cases per 100,000 pers, yet they can't authorize an HHT/DIT to...

    The Post-pandemic Canadian Armed Forces

    It's not just a PLQ issue, it's also a BMQ-L issue for some trades. I have no doubt that when you were in Wainwright, you had MP showing up for BMQ-L who had already been through their QL3. At some points there simply hasn't been an ability to get a BMQ-L for pers before they were scheduled...

    The Post-pandemic Canadian Armed Forces

    If there is a requirement to run a "pre-PLQ" in order to make it passable, we've failed as an institution at making it what we collectively want it to be.  Stating we need to run a pre-PLQ for people is as valid as saying we need to run a pre-QL3 or a pre-ILP or even a pre-BMQ/BMOQ (although we...
