...and today's vegetarian option: fish

I'm sure its been beaten by somebody somewhere.

We still train for and deploy with gear for an NBC environment. Everybody knows how to use an atropine needle and practices how to work in MOPP gear for biological and chemical weapons. We have "an actual unit built around the idea of [nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons] being used"...

The Ukraine-Russia conflict is going to be looked at as a reason to acquire and stockpile nukes. Nuclear weapons are a deterrent to others threatening your interests. Ukraine agreed not to be a nuclear power because Russia promised not to mess with it. Since unbacked promises were less than...

Print every e-mail you've got, gather all documentation, and talk to somebody you trust about your options.

Exactly. How much vacancy would there have been in, say, Cold Lake in 2007, for a family of 5? I spent months as a dependent in a family waiting for a Q in the early 90s. Sometimes its just not possible. And outside of a major city, how much slack is there in a small centre with a booming...

Stop. First off, you're a reservist. You're at the point right now where you should already be familiar with the fact that fulltime taskings, summer or otherwise are notoriously unreliable. Nothing's in stone even after you start one. If you've got some bitterness over back and forth and...

To what end would you want to avoid this? There's nothing wrong with going to JPSU, nor does it stop you cold from doing work in your trade. A RTW program could be arranged to work within your limitations, but your time should be focussed on your recovery.

I've stayed out of this, having avoided being in that spot myself. But that's a bit much. Getting effective legal advice, at least at the outset of of a divorce, so that you know what you're looking at and don't screw up the outcome, does not sound like a waste to me. If you've got a vindictive...

Ref first line of first post.

...federal Liberals, 93-06...

For anyone who might look to this as an example, no, not wearing a nametag that you were not issued will not be a problem for you. Don't sweat this stuff.

Yes, and the reduction was in part reversed.

That assumption was made in the 90s, and it was implemented. It didn't work - after the expense of paid early releases, the lack of pers to fill positions, both in general and deployable, caused them to do a 180 and wound up offering bonuses to re-hire uniformed dental officers.

Its been years since I've been back at CFSCE. Saw a few over at the LTF in Edmonton a couple weeks ago. I remember gripes about them when I was in Kingston.

Someone's not a fan of Calian?

By being required to become Sig Op det commanders as a part of their new training scheme?

Awesome. The first couple times around, it felt like a completely different writer from Starship Troopers and the rest of his books. Reading the unabridged version that his wife managed to finally get published, it was his voice. Still good, but it didn't hit me as strongly. The "tight"...

The fiber thing's driven me nuts. Run the sealed glass tube at 90 degrees to the power and ethernet. I've attempted to explain the difference in how fiber works, but its impossible to deviate from rote learning
