My Unit does this now and has for the last 9 years.  Your two challenges above haven't been an issue at any of them.  We're currently planning on doing another one in Mar.  Involves more co-ordination and prior planning for sure, but not significantly so.

My former employees used the volunteer day as a shopping day at Christmas.  I asked HR and was told that I was not allowed to ask them for proof that they actually volunteered with an organization.  I stopped asking questions about that particular leave after that.

IMO it is not the amount of data per se that is the issue.  It is the fact that we (the CF we) can't seem to delete anything.  When I worked in the IM shop at LFAA er 5 Div, we ran a duplicate detector on the HQ shared drive.  There were more than 200k duplicate files.  Many of them had more...

I would propose that providing Internet does allow them to get the "mail" on time.  Parcels by container ship or plane yes,  contact from home, not so much.  IMO troops do the majority of their contact home via the Internet and not through written letters.  I'm sure there were many letters sent...

Have you tried EBay?  I found 4 of the first 5 units you still need prices for on there for sale.  You could also send each of the missing Regiments a letter asking for them to donate a cap badge if your project warrants such.

When I went on tour in 2010 my uniforms were dipped by the medical staff at Stad.

Well if the machines have an org similar to NDHQ then the invasion won't take place until we're all long gone.

You have asked this same question 3 times.  NO is the answer.  Stop posting the same question. ---STAFF---

Don't forget inside vs outside the wire.  >:D

Yes that's the one.

Just received word today that the RV is canceled for this year.  Love to know why.

Sometimes I wish I had one of these.  >:D

This guy was prepared for zombies, aliens, nuclear war, and god knows what else all in one go.

Are the groupings due to unit size, or lack of succession?  Or both?  How are the budgets handled?  Do the CO/RSM have to submit pay/TD claims depending on task?

No, I agree with you.  This is not acceptable.  What do I tell my troops when they come looking for answers?  I guess I've got some work to do Monday.

Wow!  Then I see your points.  All I can say is that not all units are like that.  Mine is definitely not.  Normally It is the Company Commander down, with any additional support as needed depending on the Ex.  No support needed, no additional pers.  The CO and RSM may visit for part of the day...

Nothing came to/through me at my unit.

If they don't then how do we train Company commanders, CSMs etc... to be able to become future COs and RSMs?  They need to get that experience somewhere.  It's hard enough as it is to get pers ready for succession now.  I can't imagine how we do it without opportunities like those you mention.

Can you give some examples of how these items are bleeding reserve money?  This is a serious question.  Speaking from my own unit experience, I don't see this.

I'm assuming you're talking about Camp Julian, but if your referring to Canadian bases, you can freely drive onto many (most?) of them in Canada.  Why block Google Maps when you can drive around anyhow?  Camp Julian on the other hand is observeable from some of the surrounding land, so again why...
