I suspect that Prime Minister Harper will be best remembered for his sound fiscal policies, that maintained Canadian financial stability during a global financial crisis.

All it will likely mean is more needles in your anatomy, to ensure you have received the recruit level of immunization. The medical folks may check titres, but they may not and just vaccinate you for "everything".

Read post #160 of this thread, Dawson.

I fell asleep during Wolf Warrior, it was that bad. As SMA notes, the "bad guys" are a bunch of western mercs straight out of C-grade central casting. The only thing sillier than this East vs West movie would be pitting someone like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar against Bruce Lee in a martial arts flick.  ;D

A UMT serves as the core element to provide Role 1 med support, augmented by another half dozen Med Techs or so. This is a model primarily for Dom ops and exercises. On deployed ops, we tend to form composite medical units in the same way the combat arms forms composite units with infantry...

I saw the movie and thought it was mostly ok. Gross certainly captured the feel of a FOB in Afghanistan, and interspersed shots that he took in the 'Stan when he visited during Roto 10. Some of it was a bit hokey, like the relationship between two of the characters (Capt and WO), as well as the...

Our Pharmacy Officers have Bachelor's degrees, not Doctorates. We do not subsidize doctorates in Pharmacy. If nobody chimes in before then, next week I'll check to see if we subsidize pharm training through a "component transfer" program similar to MMTP.

At least the USA will be third in line, unlike the USMC who will be fourth in line!

Any changes in TO&E would come from internal reallocation of positions. It is vanishly improbable that these changes to doctrine would increase the number of positions available to H Svcs.

CAF has access to the Joint Theatre Trauma Registry, a U.S. Led trauma registry. Furthermore, many of our specialists  either use data from JTTR or participate in ongoing research trials. Much of the recent research changes to blood product administration (1:1:1), for example, was driven by...

Current NATO guidelines are 10-1-2. 10 min to initial lifesaving treatment (ie Combat First Aid), 1 hour to Damage Control Resuscitation, 2 hours to Damage Control Surgery. The Golden Hour has become the Golden Two Hours, in essence.

Clueless-stranger, You are 14 years old. First, finish high school near the top of you class. After that, complete a university degree near the top of your class. Finally, apply to a Canadian medical school and get accepted. ONLY THEN think about MOTP. You have approx 8 more years of academic...

The short answer is No. The CAF is not for you and vice versa. Please find another way to serve your country if that is your desire.

Lock this one up, Mods.

The fact that you require weekly chiro and ongoing postural maintenance is incompatible with long term military service. Good luck with your appeal, but, if I was a betting man...

No exceptions. They are called Common Enrollment Medical Standards for a reason. Good luck with your application.

Not to mention that their civilian firearms were over-priced for their quality, while resting on their Single Action Army/1911/AR15 laurels and failing to innovate. The Cowboy Action Shooting market was lost to Ruger Vaquero (worked fine out of the box and were durable)and Uberti (needed an...

Rheumatoid arthritis is rarely "minor", unfortunately. As SF notes, all you can do is apply once you finish high school and go from there. Good luck.

It depends on where the cyst is, the size, etc. Talk to your doc.

They both deserve getting fired. Good on Ms Hunt for confronting these two.
