    Updated Army Service Dress project

    Well for starters for 40 years I have used such things as AB and OS. Then there is that I have no idea of the french versions as I don't operate in french. I simply don't see the need to change it other than appease a few people that saw things in their own minds and cried over nothing. Not...

    Medical questionnaire confusion

    All the questionnaire I ever answer including last week were very precise in asking the questions in such a way that there was no room for "i thought I had high BP but was wrong". They do ask if you had various symptoms that the medical staff could then consider and analyze for possible follow...

    I would use only things that have an actual diagnoses. No need to add "we thought I might have high BP but turned out I don't".

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    In general this use to be a gentleman with CE when I used to work there. Some of these contracting officers were very good while others were a little more slack. One of them when I worked at CE in Halifax was a beast at dealing with contractors and enforcing things. It wasn't uncommon for a...

    HRA Occupation

    Shhhh - that is a group that shall not be named. The chief at the school looked like he wanted me dead when I asked if our training was ever going to include CEP Tech material back around 2000. In their minds CEP Tech were just finance clerks and didn't require any special training. I...

    Disability Pension and Retention

    Good question. I may be wrong but my understanding is that it is only for members posted so those of us moving on retirement do not get it. I will happily be wrong on this as I am planning to wait until next summer for my release move. and getting it would be a nice bonus.

    HRA Occupation

    Well I will start with it is not a contract, it is a period of service with specified terms of service. If you haven't already check out this site Human Resources Administrator | Canadian Armed Forces It covers the trade reasonably. Depending on where you are posted it can be tedious after a...

    When Pay Raise? 2025 Version

    shall we put a damper on things? hmmmm, yes we shall. in talks yesterday it came up that the retention amount (Military Service Pay) may have a new wrinkle for some people. Rumour is it will be based on your last enrolment date. As an example I know a Reg F WO that component transferred 6...

    Although I agree that changes made in the last few years was unnecessary and made to please a few, still don't get the S1-S3 system , I am curious what law you refer to when stating legal ranks? Best to me was having crowns for Maj and WO. Told easy to tell, one is large the other small. How...

If they stick with that we would know on 5 Nov as...

For example claims may be open at 0800h but cashier may not open until 0900h while medical sect is open at...

    On line search says In Canada, millennials (born 1981-1996) officially outnumber baby boomers (born 1946-1965) as of July 1, 2023, signaling a significant demographic shift. This transition, primarily driven by immigration and a large millennial cohort, means baby boomers are no longer the...

    Would Mandatory National Service make the CF stronger?

    If that happened then the other generations would no longer have the boomers to blame for every election even though the other generations already outnumber boomers so are the ones that really control who gets elected. Hell, with that plan hardly anyone would vote as most of the people voting...
