Hopefully not.

Would they? How would they deal with a situation of a clique forming within a Troop? Is it encouraged or discouraged? What are the signs that they look for indicating the clique is getting out of control?

They are very subtle in comparison to what can happen now. It's psycolgically significant to wear a group identifier such as regimental uniform. Now that uniform can be easily split into sub group identities (cliques) with the new dress regulations. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but I do...

Yes, young men will naturally band together under a banner for group security and identity. I always thought that was why the Army gave you an identity and strict uniform dress as a way of preventing these kinds of subgroups forming. :unsure:

I'm wondering if troops will start creating their own dress and deportment looks within the regiments. The new regulations seem to allow a great deal of variations which allows for creating cliques. For example, you are now in 12 Troop. We wear our hair like so, our beards are trimmed like so...

Tried to live off Soylent for a bit. I didn't last three days before I'd rather lick crumbs off the floor. It's psychologically really difficult as I found I would drink the soylent and no longer feel hungry, but I also felt like I didn't eat anything. It was deeply unsatisfying and I would keep...

I was kind of hoping they issued a T4A to a WWI vet. That would truely raise the bar on incompetence.

All good points here. It's always a bit of a crapshoot with global warming simulations but most scientists have the arctic being ice free between 2035 and 2050. Not that far away is it? Invariably we tend to discover that the earth has a great deal more ice/water than we have data for so that...

Realistically can Canada even procure the resources needed to actually Defend the arctic solely? I suspect not and we will need the help anyway. From the British and US perspective having Canada lose the arctic to Russia or some other power is an unacceptable loss of control of a major future...

I happen to be in a research group building a rover prototype to look for ice on the moon in an effort to help locate a moon base area. Thing is, NASA has a habit of changing directions. Especially when it comes to the moon. It's very likely that it will be done by a private venture with some...

I'm waiting for the gender ambigous ranks - Sir Sargentette, Mistress Gunnerman, Person Popper, Trans Corporal ...etc.

Well said, Danny. Like you said, you got to keep at it. The government is slow and stupid, the only way to beat it and get what you need is through steady persistence. CHIMO!

No charges were laid, so couldn't he just cross the border if he wanted to?

Thanks for the info. :)

I don't have anything to show in terms of documentation regarding my service, which ended back in 2010. Like if I even want to show that I'm a veteran I don't really have any official documentation. Does anyone know where I may request copies of my service records? I'm thinking in terms of...

Speaking as a scientist, I think it is important to point out that we do have a very limited understanding of the universe. When you do look at models of the universe they are relatively simple approximations of reality and ultimately fragile. Although I would never subscribe to a religion...

I recall getting jacked up because a group of us did not salute a group of officers who drove by in a van with tinted windows. Doesn't exactly garnish respect for higher ranks when stuff like that happens.

The hunt for the 'cheater' of the system goes on. Consider this: A full evaluation for OSI isn't a check in the box. The real diagnosis takes many hours of interaction with a therapist and psychologist. The fact of the matter is they are going into the appointments and putting in the time. If...

If one doesn't want to have their info looked at when crossing then most phones/devices will backup onto the cloud. The user restores the device to factory settings and wipes everything from phone/device. You simply update your phone with your cloud data when done. This is one method high tech...

I suggest to contact SISIP for more information.  Are you able to appeal the decision once you have supporting medical documents? That would be my main question.
