I've managed to go straight from BOTP to NETPO (that DL package was a 5 day Class B week) to MARS III and now to MARS IV starting next week.... so it is possible to get all the courses one right after the other.

True, it is called that. However, only farmers west of Ontario need submit their product to the CWB... pretty fair eh?

Click on the data link on this site... there are thousands of drifting buoy reports available. http://www.meds-sdmm.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/meds/Home_e.htm Cheers

Last West Coast numbers I had, and these are a week old, was that the 5 operational ships were short 30 personnel, or about 1/5 of each ship's company. The good news? Besides saving 15% on my car insurance, is that the YELLOWKNIFE is coming back online next week!

Whatever the case may be the delay here is unacceptable, both for the accused and for the military as a whole. All this means is that we have to put up with more media coverage in February... it just goes on and on. I'm at the point where I'm torn between two schools of thought: 1) Military...

I'll be happy to have two... winter and summer... the rain's a bit*h.

It's not out of the question. I'm still a SHAD though, and would like to spend some more time on the KINGSTON class before going over to the dark side. :)

This is how that SHOULD read: "The CF is very proactive in drug investigations and in conjunction with Base Health Services will start to conduct 100% drug screening of all personnel, regular force and reserve, employed in CANFLTPAC." Sadly, we know that won't happen... though it would...

IHS, I can't help but whole heartedly agree. Yes, it's a huge pain in the a$$. Yes, it's taking a long time. Yes, it's costing us a ton of cash. In the end, we will have (arguably) the most capable diesel submarine in the world... all that and we'll be firing MK48's! I think the capability (both...

The problems with CREST (Capital Region Emergency Communications System) are well documented and long standing. Though it allows all police/fire/EMS services in the Capital Region (Victoria, Saanich, Esquimalt, Langford, Metchosin, North Saanich, Highlands etc etc) to maintain comms on the same...

I'm pretty sure ESSM is a done deal... IE some ships (certainly one) already have them....

I was convinced the purchase was a good one when it was announced. The fact that they've already begun operational use makes me confident that my convictions were well founded. Congrats to all involved. IN ARDUA NITOR

Who knew such a "small" plane could carry a WW2 Aircraft Carrier?!  ::)

To be clear the CO of SAS was not promoted out of his job. He is still very much a LCdr and the CO of ORI. I think it's important we maintain some perspective here as well - the courts martial have not concluded for all of the accused. Until then, I would suggest, It's premature to level any...

Or perhaps the Federal Government exploring for options in the North?

Sonardork - I'm pretty familiar with the IRMDS and look forward to your next NOP to see it's full capabilities. Suffice to say, I was very impressed with what I've heard/seen over the last few years and was equally happy when DND funding was extended. IN ARDUA NITOR

Sign me up!  :D

Nice!!

To be fair, I'd rather drink what comes out of the tap than anything else. "spring water" never appealed to me.. being from Alberta you'd always have to fear the ever deadly "Beaver Fever" if you drank natural stream/river/spring water.
