Yea, been a few hot minutes but don't think checking lug nuts is a daily driver parade thing.

Yea, working with one team right now where they largely solved an LPO logjam for a major base with some smart process mapping, tweaks in the process and better use of DRMIS. Still a work in process but it is promising as they get stuff to folks faster and while they buy more, the actual...

Yea again not asking you to justify why, just pointing out the processes are bad. While I care, if folks want to keep doing bad processes, not gonna get involved but I have seen great things happen when sane heads make processes make sense. Ack on the HPR app vs form, maybe they make it easier...

Why would you need 3 quotes for something less than $1k? Why a 2227 as the Ships Log folks, why not a Preq to the Purchasing Group that will do the buying for you? It isn't in your example but you also probably needed Sec 32, so you likely had to get the 2227 signed by someone with a proper...

I haven't pulled a RCN purchasing groups in a long while but the CA absolutely does not get any bang for its buck with their local purchasing groups. One of the largest issues with the way we do business at the base/unit level is there is no real coherent oversight looking at streamlining the...

They changed their process in 2023ish or so to allow for them to be locally produced using the Commander signature. Link below CA DWD Link

That also means that for years soldiers weren't being compensated properly (although it could just be a policy change that made them eligible but don't think so). I hate bureaucracy too but getting folks what they earned is good thing (even if it is painful)

Quebec legislation is on a whole other level when it comes to firing people and giving compensation.

Hahaha that was a gooder but not mine. Our were less serious but still harshly squashed and proper remedial steps taken.

Yea fair enough, as long as the member is isn't doing anything out of line it makes sense. My knee jerk response above was almost involuntary, as I had a pretty large BTL at one time, had more than a few folks tried to game the system or get money from from some source for tuition or other...

It doesn't say anything about student loans because the CAF covers all tuition, books and mandatory fees. There is no need for anyone to get a student loan for school expenses.

There is nothing you can do on your end. It is a system glitch with the authentication service. It will come back up

Meh, maybe the institution should not have vastly differing policies on when someone reaches the rank of Cpl. No one can convince me that a PRes soldier with a few months of experience over 2 years is more deserving than a Pte in the RegF with 3 years of full time experience. Make it all 3...

Until they harmonized PRes and RegF policies my thoughts are that the RegF should just be mass advanced promoting folks to Cpl. Easy QoL and acknowledges the experience a RegF Pte has gained over their PRes brethren that is within current policy restraints. Above Cpl I agree advanced...

Good catch the 20 year one was last year after all

Close quarter battle between Russian vs Ukrainian tanks. Not Kursk 48.303062, 37.457335 point to a location in eastern Ukraine, near the city of Horlivka in the Donetsk Oblast region.

No, they have a few deployment medals and CD with bar. They are just the type of veteran that needs everyone around them to know they are a veteran.

Crazy stuff, even crazier they downed one and hit another. Nice to see!

I don't disagree, but neither of us get a say in the policy or get to wish away the assumed risks if they put in a potential breach of the Human Rights Act into policy. That's why it was changed before this policy even came down to be pretty much anyone could get a RHU.

Pretty sure they have it in there to avoid a challenge under the Canadian Human Rights Act (CHRA) of discrimination due to marital/family status.
