    The Brookfield Megathread

    Exactly my point. Their job is to facilitate a relocation for members. Part of that is a clear explanation of entitlements, benefits, etc etc, regardless of how many times someone has moved previously under IRP. They are not doing this - what I have seen in the last two APS is nothing but IRP...

    The Brookfield Megathread

    Gagetown. There is a constant supply of QL3s moving all year long here. Don't get me wrong, I have had a couple good consultants myself, but the fact that someone who is posted needs "to check off what they wish to discuss" is pure and utter BS. When we do yearly IBTS or predeployment training...

    The Brookfield Megathread

    I'd say you're pretty spot on. My last posting from Pet to Gagetown in 2010 wasn't too bad, but last APS was quite an eye opener. According to several friends and subordinates who were posted out last summer, the IRP agents apparently no longer actually "consult", it is up to you, the relocatee...

    Sexual Assault & Sexual Misconduct in the CF

    I can recall being able to watch soft core porn at lunch at Yogi's in Petawawa while eating a Yogi Burger and having a pint :D I remember being in there one day when a guy went up to the bartender and asked to have it turned off, only to be berated by some female soldiers at one of the...

    Commuter Allowance- Merged Thread

    This should not even have to be done. This is flat out a CoC issue that could be sorted in about 5 seconds on the phone to the CM by the applicable RSM / Adj. Members should not have to be using an adjudication system designed for other purposes to sort out the basics of a posting.

    Common Law Marriage in the Canadian Forces - Mega Thread

    What was his primary address listed in Peoplesoft one year ago? If it was your address, you may have some additional ammo to redress this. That being said, if he did not request to live out (and odds are because he didn't, his primary address is most likely RMC) and his primary address in...

    Monitor Mass

    [Not a MM Wizard]Highlight the subunit you want to display on the left side of the screen. In the centre of the screen, click on "Agenda" tab (should be to the right of the Position and Nominal tabs, and then click "Get Data". The Gaant chart (sp?) pops up. You can manoeuvre between views, but...

    Monitor Mass

    It does, but it's pretty painful and limited.

    +1. Also have her inquire at the Petawawa Centennial Family Health Centre (PCFHC). They are (at least I have heard) expanding their client base and when my wife worked there as an RN, there was always a need for MH and addiction services types.

    Troop/Platoon level whiteboard training ideas

    How about practice of dismounted patrolling techniques? SAT range? Laying and picking up of protective minefields (including the recording of) and defensive position fencing (these are all arms tasks that really don't get practiced all too often)? Dry C19 trg? In-depth ETHAR trg (i.e. more in...

    Fitness for Operational Requirements of CAF Employment ( FORCE )

    No need for automatic BP devices - it is dirt simple to learn how to read someone's BP. When I did my BFTA back in '03, it was one of the performance checks we had to pass, and if this guy can do it, I think anyone can  ;D Mind you, auto BP machines would remove some of the QC issues between...

    Fitness for Operational Requirements of CAF Employment ( FORCE )

    It's been called the BFTA now for a number of years. Run by the PSP people out of their "school" in Borden. Couple weeks of learning how to run Expres tests....at least when I did it in 2003...,

    Redress of Grievance – Mega thread [MERGED]

    I helped one of my subordinate's spouse with her PER redress and she won. It all comes down to substantiation - as in can YOU substantiate WHY you should have been scored higher? In her case, it was glaringly obvious once she produced written proof to back up the score she should have gotten.

    A little help with VAC

    From what I have seen and heard lately, for PTSD claims, they initally give 10% across the board until "the condition stabilizes" and a 6 month recheck has been done. I have not heard anyone disclose if further % were given after the 6 month checkup or if it does / doesn't stabilize. Note that...

    BMOQ For Combat Engineers?

    Typo. There is no such thing as a Cbt Engr Officer - NCMs are Cbt Engrs and officers are Engrs, who would do BMOQ.

    Training Review Board Recommendations

    Has the TRB sat already? If so, the final decision was most likely made about 20 mins after you left the room. MELs are not employed at the discretion of your unit. They are a set of limitations (Medical Employment Limitations) that your CoC must abide by, i.e. if it says no ruckmarching, then...

    Training Review Board Recommendations

    I keep seeing this in this thread, and I will suggest this to you based on my answers from yesterday - check your school's standing orders WRT student counselling. I am willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that the reason you have not been charged or issued IC / RW / C&P for the incidents you...

    Training Review Board Recommendations

    Sounds to me like you are RCN on your QL3 (or whatever the RCN calls their initial trades training). There's a couple comments in there that lead me to believe that. Using that assumption, here are some suggestions from what I have seen being on the other side of the fence in the trg system...

    Care & Control/ Refuse to breathalyze

    Have you actually asked your WO and Capt to inquire about the possible ramifications of these two charges, if you are not found guilty? AR or not, you should have been counseled on the outcomes either way. I might be wrong (and I don't for one second pretend to be a lawyer) but let's say you...

    Care & Control/ Refuse to breathalyze

    OP - As per the CM brief you attended last Monday with the rest of CFSME, unless your VIE ends prior to March, you won't see a voluntary release prior to your trial (i.e. the CM was quite specific in that no release without an AR happening prior to the end of TOS will be entertained)
