    Be in shape when you arrive on course...

    That's disheartening... you would think that students at RMC, as future leaders, would take it upon themselves to excel in all four pillars, not only two or three. Especially if you're going cbt arms, for crying out loud.

    Be in shape when you arrive on course...

    Of note on RMC. I also remember being at the Infantry School in 2002 and a significant number of people from RMC did not fare well on the CF Expres. Of interest, most of them were Armour.  ;D

    Israel (IDF) versus Gaza aid ships- updates

    Yep, great idea Petamocto, sounds like the kind of thing we want to be doing, in this case sends the Navy to kill people on humanitarian convoys. I think the GoC would have more to fear from the electorate than from jihadis.

    Navy Reserve Intelligence Officer

    Hey there, I`m a NAVRES IntO right now... not for long, but eh! After BOTC, you will do NETPO which is two weeks long. You don`t need to do it straight away, i.e. before BIOC, but if you enrolled under RESO you will not get your commission after BIOC if you didn't do NETPO, so you might want to...

    Recruitment into Combat Arms (first time poster)

    A ships runs 24/7...so does everyone on board, bosn's included. The Navy has a set watch rotation with sexy names, and all positions are manned during peacetime sailing. When action stations are piped then everyone works.

    How does relocation work for OT/CT?

    Hmm...now that's interesting Pusser. I will be going in with what I reckon to be +/- less 3 yrs of class B and class A divided by 4 time. I'm OT'ing to a RegF only trade but am not qualified in my current PRes trade. Are you saying that if I do indeed have more than 3 yrs cumulative recognized...

    Recruitment into Combat Arms (first time poster)

    Considered Construction Tech? I'm not sure it's open though but... Bos'n is the way to go... best of both world: play outside, drive boats, shoot guns, but a warm cot and meal at the end of the day. What's not to like^  ;D

    How does relocation work for OT/CT?

    Thanks Pusser, very enlightening. As I said, I am myself going to undergo a BOR move on location awaiting training and have been collecting bits and pieces of info here and there. As I understand the largest difference is the posting allowance, which is understandably absent in the case of a...

    How does relocation work for OT/CT?

    Ok I do not have all the facts but here goes: If your hubby goes into Geo Tech he will not be qualified, therefore you are not entitled to a full-cost move until he is qualified, BUT...seeing as his program will likely be more than a year, the Base-Training List Manager who "owns" him may...

    New Branch?

    Well cyber espionage falls under SIGINT... But I get your point. Personally I read the OP's post as refering to cyber-warfare vs cyber operations or CNO's, i.e. "taking out" a target vice watching it. The US Cyber Command aims to cover the first while the second still is the domain of NSA/CSS.

    New Branch?

    Power stations powering military infrastructure, dual-use national comms facilities, railroads... all are legitimate targets according to LOAC which have been and are often targetted legally during conflcts.

    Component Transfer ( CT ) - Reserve to Regular

    ??? No... why would you? Are you in the Primary Reserve? CT'ing means transferring from one component to another; components are CIC, PRes, RegF, SupRes and Special (Mobilization). You can't transfer to two components at the same time.

    High school students flunk O Canada

    Which is why that separation should be maintained. Everybody is free to do what they want at home. Chevy57: Absolutely right children are a product of what we teach them...as parents. I cannot fathom why the Church SHOULD have something to do in there. I am not religious, never have been never...
