    Movember Mustache

    I also participated in Movember last year.  Remembrance Day and a large mess dinner were 2 big uniform events that i did look slightly ridiculous but that was my intent (i don't grow staches very well apparently), it's a great ice breaker to state that your fundraising for Men's health. This...

    Question for the Pipers or CF Musicians

    Yes, i also came across that site.  I couldn't find any reference to Malorca actually being a pipe piece as the 48th also has a Mil band... PV

    Question for the Pipers or CF Musicians

    Good day gents, Please redirect this thread if i have posted in the wrong spot. I have a question about the Vice Regal Salute in Canada.  Can this (or a version of) be played by a pipe and drum band ? My Cadet Squadron is about to play for the Lt Gov of Ontario this weekend and we have been...

    BFT for CIC Officers.

    I was told, when i was on my last RCIS course last year, that the new standard is 1 period of PT for every 2 days of course training for officers currently enrolled.  Now, laughable still for most, it's still a slow step in the right direction and; my only hope is this will increase in the...

    BFT for CIC Officers.

    Good on ya Russ, although the BFT or EXPRES test is not a requirement for us CIC folks, it certainly won't hurt and attempt at better relations with your affiliated PRes unit (as was mentioned) and maybe, just maybe, change a few opinions in the process. cheers PV

    Air Force Forage Cap

    I was just, very firmly, informed by my CofC that the forage cap is now history at a conference i was at on the weekend: not to be worn any longer at any occasion.  Indeed, it doesn't seem to appear in the newset version of the dress regs...RIP AF tradition! now...bring on the Yukon!  :D PV

    CF cellphone plan

    I can assure you that you are mostly incorrect.  I have no free minutes per say, nor did i state that previously.  What i did say is that what i do pay for is a really great deal.  When i ordered my plan, i specifically asked for the plan for members of the CF, coincidentally, i am sure you find...

    CF cellphone plan

    I would also have to echo MedTech sentiments, i don't think i will ever switch from Rogers they have been pretty great from a customer service perspective.  The GSM network that Rogers uses does make it very simple to upgrade your phone when you need, as you simply switch your card to the new...

    CF cellphone plan

    Such a thing does exist with Rogers (i am on it) but they don't really advertise it and the only reason i found out about it was through a friend that works for the company.  I would think it is similar to other plans for Canadian federal employees etc as it was described to me as a "government...
