    Reserve Recruiting

      Although that is an extremely valid reason, I'll be facing that in the near future...although the other way around, but there are also incentives for companies that allow men or women to be a part of the reserves, and function in a civilian job as well.  Now, I don't know a whole lot about...

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

      Just a comment on the hair thing, if you can french braid, you'll be okay.  It is now regulation to wear your hair in either one french braid (either normal or reverse), or pigtail french braids, which are near impossible to keep equal unless you're a trained hairstylist.  But yeah, buns...

    Started Reserve BMQ (Weekends)

      What happened to the good old days of 8 weeks away from home? lol.  I did my reserve BRT (that's what it was called 4 years ago) in Dundurn, SK and was gone for 2 months.  Every single day, no days off until the 4th weekend, when we got the saturday off to go downtown to hang out in civies (a...

    Best Cop shows?

      Don't scoff, most of what goes on there is actually correct....a lot is a little stretched, but believe me, police services and higher are more than capable of determining any information on you that they want.

    Best Cop shows?

      I've never seen 24, maybe I'll watch the season premiere tonight and check it out.     And, if you have dim lights around you....and a spotlight over what you're looking at (which they have like 99% of the time), the light is brighter, thus making finer details more obvious.

    Sig Op to Lineman????

      No, we aren't NCCIS at all.  Although, I am NCCIS Lt trained, and was in the QRT as long as it was in Vancouver.  So, I've been HF for awhile.  But no, our specialty is TCCCS, tac rad, as far as that is concerned.

    Pointing Lasers at Aircraft

      Well, obviously he did something incredibly stupid....who knows what the guy was thinking at the time, and he deserves to be punished harshly....even if only for his stupidity.  My previous comment was simply eluding to the fact that....you can't just point one of those little board meeting...

    Sig Op to Lineman????

      Actually, that is only because they are phasing linemen out of 748 and 741.  744 is the only unit allowed to take on more linemen.  We've lost a lot over the last few years, and currently we only have 3 trained (brand new LCF Sgt from Edmonton), 1 recruit, and my paperwork was handed in this...

    Intelligence branch..

      Since Cyloh hasn't been on here in awhile, and I saw him this morning, I'll let y'all know, he's remustered Int, and yeah, not much else to say...he made his decision, and is more than happy with his new unit!

    Sig Op to Lineman????

      Don't forget the fact that there are a certain number of positions offered to different areas, but yes, I do realize that there is a backup of pers wanting on line courses, but that was why the trade was temporarily closed, and has only been opened again to certain units, hopefully that will...

    Reserve Classes (A,B,C)

      When a reservist goes on a reg force contract, he/she makes the same amount as if he/she was in the reg force....that being Class C.  So, Class C pay is the equivalent to reg force pay, for a reservist on a specific tasking....for example going on tour.

    Your Beer Brand of Choice

      Oh, I disagree....although I could do without 151 *blech*  But I'm a big fan of the Bacardi Triple Black (yes, it's a girly drink, but I'm a girl so it's okay).    Don't get me wrong, I love Keith's, but if I had a choice between Graville Island's Pale Ale, and Keith's, I'd 9 times out of 10...

    Best Cop shows?

    Serve and Protect...focused mostly on the Edmonton PD, it's great.  I'm a HUGE Third Watch fan....not just cops, all aspects of the job, love it!

    Couple Questions

      Well, you would most likely get posted to either Esquimalt or Halifax, I don't think HMCS Discovery is all that large, and wouldn't have much room for that many more.  I don't know for sure, but I'd be pretty certain that you'd be put in Esquimalt.

    Sigs Question

      Just ask your Ops & Trg, if they have anything, I'm sure they'd be more than thrilled to send you on a tasking.....although I highly doubt they'll let you near their weapons....

    What kind of laser could it be to reach an airplane???

    Sig Op to Lineman????

      I don't know, but as I work in my unit QM (744, so 74/BC Comm Grp), I have had many a phone call and email and fax come through as to the status of the tac vests to be issued throughout not only my unit, but as I understand it, the remainder of BC.  I don't know much as to the status of...
