The Four Horsemen of the Apocolypse, by Vicente Blasco Ibanez; World War I novel printed in 1918

Following on to that statement, the fact  that PTSD is not limited to serving members and vets is also part of the problem - PTSD is now a common buzz word in the claims industry, with most every defence lawyer adding the term 'PTSD' to the previously commonplace terms of 'STI' (soft tissue...

Glad to hear its not a problem with EI, but it is an issue with other forms of insurance, when the insurance company member doesnt understand the difference between a military pension and a disability pension...

Ack, I thought it said May, my mistake...

Quote from: Erix1990 on March 08, 2012, 21:10:56 How the heck did you get a quote from a date that has yet to occur?  Aside from that, former Int Op here.  Adding to the multitude, you spend most of your time in an office, reading information.  If you want to be an Int Op, and be good at...

I would disagree as this has an impact on other forms of insurance; if for example you are receiving unemployment insurance, workers compensation, or compensation from an auto insurance company after a car accident, then the veterans pension is often considered a form of income that has to be...

Although the content is correct, neither article is very good; neither explains why certain foods cause flare-ups, and also doesnt explain why the choices he provides are beneficial.  Also doesnt explain what foods you should definately not be eating during flare-ups, and other symptoms that...

If no one has already told you, probably best to check with your local recruting center and find out if there are any openings are out there at all, given the current reduction in staffing and recruitment across the country...

Nice catch

Good news!

On foreign deployments, pointing is a no-no due to potential cultural faux pas, as some have already pointed out. But back in Canada, I was given to understand that the current emphasis on use of the whole hand rather than a pointed finger is due to a sexcual harassment case in... I think the...

In regard to sports, the use of the whole hand by a hockey ref is the same as for soccer refs and other sports (i.e. volleyball, tennis, football, etc) - the reason being that it is much easier for spectators and others persons at a distance to see a full open hand than to see a single pointed...

One positive thing I can say is that it wasnt as bad in my trade as it was when working with the army units on deployment - it was always a wind sucker to find out that while i was in Canada my written declaration or signed forms were good anywhere, but as soon as I put foot down on foreign soil...

Many excellent points there, I had simlar experiences...

This is the message that far too many members of the general public believe and propogate, including not just anti-war and anti-military supporters, but even some of our current politicians believe this. 

Unfortunately the results arent that funny - now we have a whole rank level being treated like experienced privates instead of like the mid-level leaders that they have historically been... Im intrigued by the way you phrased that - 'started making the officers do NCO work' - was there a direct...

You must be in the 'gas war' area, cause I havent seen gas below 1.00 in several years.  Price across the Island and Vancouver averages between 1.20 and 1.30 depending on what station, what city, and day of the week (Fridays and Holidays are usually the highest prices). 

Waiting 5-10 years isnt a program anymore, its a joke - it only demonstrates how little it is regarded...

That is a credible situation I can see happening...

I dont see how this is possible - shes been co-habitating for five years and she hasnt even filed yet for divorce?  The CF may try to stay out of personal lives, but they dont recognize multiple relationships either.  How can the CF recognize co-habitation when she is is still legally married...
