In its infinite wisdom, the AB gov has decided it has no obligation to release the report into its own potential corruption.....nothing to see here...

Is that why the RCR have retention issues?

thats one of the reasons I joined the ARes, pension sure its not great compared to the reg force plan but its something for someone who worked in the service industry getting nothing

Ah I didn't hear about that removal, thanks

Just like every other time, we will have ti make do with what we have got at the start. However having a plan already on the books does give us a leg up

Sounds like Topshee wants us ready for war, but recruiting and his own training establishment won't keep up with whats desired

Armour school west just makes sense, if 1 CMBG is going to be heavy cav with two Tank battalions, but the rest will be MCAV, having a school just for tanks in suffield or wainwright makes logical sense, why would we send people to learn tanks in gagetown if they are all in edmonton?

I tend to agree, the only way i could see the sustainment brigade located in one spot is if we saw a massive infrastructure initiative that brought rail heads to it from every base, plus an airfield to fly in and out transport aircraft. Requiring the transport battalion to have a dedicated rail...

The continental division as it is currently being referred to as, isn't that much different from the current reserve structure. The key difference is the CBG's report to an area HQ (3 of them total) who then report to Div HQ. Over all though by 2040 the goal is a massive increase in the ARes...

With the new reorg now public, thre will be the return of division level CSS in the form of a log battalion and a maint battalion. Given the training backlog I can only imagine it will be a long time before its actually up and running (if it ever does) but if it does happen a division...

Agreed I would say we need a handful of full timers in the battleschools to run them, followed by class B and class A augmentation

I've also read the Res force battleschools at the CBGs will see an increase in manning and scope which should allow more DP1 courses held locally by the CBGs. Already my unit is working on a DP1.3 Weapons course proposal, approved by the school, waiting on CO and Div approval, once implemented...

If the army continues to see an increase in class C reservists like we are due to DOMOPs, and more overseas commitment by the reserves, we really need to invest in a proper transition from the Reserve pay system to the Regular force pay system. We have issues every year that due to switching pay...

More then likely yes, and it would be a win win move

K2 would only be about 12 months according to the Koreans. So not a huge wait at all, and given the massive unsolicited package they offered in March, if we did go with k2, there would likely be a lot of jobs gained here

This should be an interesting week, with the Alberta government intending to use the NWC with 3 bills, ill be interested to see what statement the federal government puts out about it.
