Broadly speaking, this is still the barometer for success even today.  Sounds like you had it about right, priority-wise.

Around the NWO has arrived :) That was actually pretty accurate SKT.  But what you explained as Control, is still likely Charge, in your example.  Everything else is correct. I rarely gave up Control, unless I needed to, for sleep purposes, mostly, or for training purposes.  Control involves a...

The article is nothing more than fear mongering garbage, but then again, it comes from HuffPost, which is a dressed up version of a supermarket tabloid, IMO. Well, this kind of hyperbole certainly suits the ends of the BCCLA. So, nothing in the article to elaborate the basis for that...

You are indeed in for a treat. It was the first Ken Burns show I watched. And I agree with Altair - Civil War was even better, and I say that as someone with zero interest in the topic.  I think  perhaps its because Civil War doesn't have the benefit of tv footage to rely on for its story...

That is so awesome!!  I was lucky enough to have someone like that under my Command once....I couldn't promote him fast enough!  Literally years. I (he, actually) had had to wait the YEARS required at each rank before EPZ kicked in.  I was fortunate enough to be the person to promote him one of...

;D I was thinking about this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDpmVUEjagg

Fake news.  The percentage has to be WAY bigger than that.  Massive crowds percentage.  'UGE you might even say.

Fair enough.  I am working at a U.S. Command, and their accountability requirements are far more stringent than ours, but I had a subordinate at the scene of the Las Vegas shooting last year.  Knowing that dude was there meant I reached out to him, before anyone else in my recall list - calling...

That would be true, I think, because there is an actual difference in rank in your Cpl/Sgt example.  But the Acting MCpl and the substantive MCpl are both the same rank: Cpl.  I haven't been a LS in over 20 yrs, but what currently separates the two other than some coursing, specifically PLQ?  To...

It has been decade since I was in a NRD Command team, but during the daytime, with only, say, 11 people in the building from 0800-1600, evacuating the building in an emergency was simple and easily handled by whoever had that responsibility. On an Admin night, with upwards of 80 people, or a...

The government refused the Admiral's request for legal assistance, or so goes the reporting in the MSM

Agreed! https://tridentnewspaper.com/new-unit-patch-nru-asterix/

I can guarantee you it doesn't matter one fucking iota to the hundreds, no, thousands of civilian taxpayers walking past me on Front Street in Toronto as I write this. Get yourself an empty Tim Hortons cup and tell your story to them...maybe you will have enough spare change for a hamburger...

Perhaps this one... http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/AnnualStatutes/2014_17/ It appears to be the only 2014 update remotely related to his comments, but I still don't see what he means.

Bullies of the Seas, IMHO.  I really cannot recall an instance in my time at sea where I heard something other than "This is Naval Unit xy - request you maintain a 2 mile CPA on my vessel", exercising that exception in COLREGS as it pertains to government vessels. That kind of thing can really...

Closed-Loop Communication.  Its purpose is three fold: An acknowledgment that the person responding to the order has heard it; the whole exchange is captured in an audio recording for any future investigation; and, most importantly, the person giving the order hears is repeated back to them. On...

From the website apology: Sure there are.  Those words would be: "We are horrified at the distaste and hateful words..." and perhaps..."our previous Social Media coordinator has been fired/released/resigned/is no longer employed here..." ...I don't actually see it stated anywhere in their...

I agree that was his likely intent, however he ended up pulling a move right out of Mr. Trump's playbook: by design, he made a vastly oversimplified pronouncement on a complicated policy issue.  The actual facts and details of the issue would have just tarnished the whole announcement. Maybe...

An opinion piece about how the PM could step up even a little bit more in his messaging, in the same vein that he made his 'always a place' message http://www.cbc.ca/news/opinion/myth-refugees-canada-trudeau-1.4257696
