Good catch, fixed

FWIW I agree with your viewpoint and did/would do the same. I just know in practice it isn't how most view it.

No you are reading that right. Pri 1 is weighted towards new to CAF or moving due to training needs if already a CAF member

1 CMBG had an unofficial policy of advance promoting pretty much every Pte to Cpl at 3 years as a way of offsetting QOL during the oil patch boom. Continued long after (and may still) because it gives a QOL boost and as @SupersonicMax points out it means almost nothing if someone matriculates...

Changes to how CFHA manages priority lists for RHUs effective 01 Dec 24. Priority 1 – CAF member moving at public expense New entrant to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) posted off the Basic Training list (BTL) to their first place of duty or to a different place of duty, within their first...

The NIIN is an older term but I don't think beyond the nerds that maintain the databases or talk with the NATO codification people it had much usage. I re-read your post are you just trying to identify what the clothing is? Jacket wet weather - is the rain jacket in cadpat CONVERGED JACKET...

The NIIN is the NSN just without any dashes. 20-001-7154:NSN 20-001-7153:NSN Not understanding what you need but if you can clarify, I can help

The minimum time in ranked to be accelerated promoted to corporal in the PRes is one year, so likely there is something else at play that is getting your friend promoted if it is earlier than that. Reference is CFAO 49-5(20). The mitigating factor is the CO is not the approving authority but...

20+ years...I think it's among the top 5 ever!

Hopefully, the Salesforce software will be able track that metric and where the pain points are. It is a very bureaucratic system for folks to navigate

Yea unless there isn't room on the 05 Feb crse then it will be the next one

Log generally pre-positions folks at their first place of employment while undergoing training. Since there isn't much time until you arrive in Borden, likely you will go to Borden and from there they will employ you in situ under the base BTL, send you back to your home(assuming your F&E aren't...

Which is why I wish we would have put more emphasis on Canadian resource extraction like refineries and LNG hubs. We can smartly extract resources despite what the anti-pipeline folks think. We are a rich country afraid to use our resources.

Lots of bases are wide open. They all have the ability to restrict access and the areas that needs restriction get it. No point in using resources to protect some admin buildings. I can walk up to Parliment hill, doesn't mean I see or access anything harmful to country. Things that need...

I mean many of the CA's fleets are being refreshed both B and A fleets We are regaining capabilities in AD, ATGM and CUAS The CA's long term outlook has many key upgrades funded (recent DLR brf to senior CA folks) Is it everything? No and I hope for more but am cautiously optimistic and...

As @dapaterson points out if you aren't OFP you aren't deploying. To (potentially) answer your question pretty sure that you still need one year of service as a 2LT for promotion to Lt. I don't have access to CFAOs right now and PRes promotion policy isn't something I have memorized so...

There are aspects that is Latvia only right now, but the rest of the CA is modernizing as well domestically. I agree with you in some regards but at the end of the day we are replacing our clapped out stuff for new and shiny. That is a win, regardless how you look at it. I wish we would...

Nice video. I am eager to hear how well looked the LTVs will be. It was always one of those things that our light Bns were missing was that ability to transit moderate distances in a tactical environment. In any case it might not feel like it too many folks, but we are slowing building up...
