DaPaterson, That's true, my Severance Pay is calculated till my release date, and not last February. Now to wait the next several months for $$ to show up.

Just released 3B (today) and your severance pay will be based on your Substantive Rank.  When they changed the rules for the PIL they changed that one too.  Arses.  Cost me $1500 pre-tax.  Since I'm Cpl/AL, I got knocked down from Cpl IPC3 to Pte IPC3.  Not very nice as far as I'm concerned. Oh...

I do believe my Great-Grandfather, Grandfather and other family members and friends who served in the Canadian Army just rolled over in their graves and  :boke: 

Any body else get the impression that that's a lot of people jumping ship, I mean retiring all at once??  Seems like a big shuffle and a clean house to me.  Not that the incoming members don't deserve the posts, I'm sure they do, otherwise they wouldn't get it, but that's a big shuffle at the...

FML!!!!  This will be fun come October.  Incoming Fight!!! :argument:

:-[ Just trying to be nice, like my mommy taught me.  Besides my RTW plan only has me working 3 days /week.  I gotta do something constructive. ;D

Yes, the PA or Sgt will ask about that, it's part of your medical screening. As for it affecting your enlistment.  That depends on a number of factors that cannot be discussed on an open forum, nor will any of us Medical Pers discuss specifics here anyway. Be honest during your appointment...

brian8225, Sorry to hear about your letter from the RMO.  Do not be discouraged though.  As stated before there is an appeal process.  Read the letter carefully, in it it will state exactly why you do not meet UoS.  You stated earlier that you still need to wait 3-5yrs to be medically clear of...

Badner, This has been discussed many times.  Try a search next please.  Luckly, I'm on RTW due to my MEL's and I'm sitting at home trying not think about eating my two children for dinner (just joking). Our Scope of Practice is decided and delegated by the Surgeon General of Canada, through...

While doing work up in Ft Irwin, California, I was the GIB for our BISON.  I had a female CC and Driver.  All three of us were professionals, although my CC could make an infanteer blush I'm sure. I have worked with mixed crews/platoons/patrols etc. both in theater and during extended Dom ops. ...

Here's the link to the interview with CTV Question Period http://www.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=847501&binId=1.810401 I watched this and I'm even more convinced that she hasn't got a clue.  I'm even more convinced that she needs someone, a lawyer or Canadian History teacher, to teach her and her...

Its the same old case of the paper work not catching up with reality.  I wouldn't worry about it.  I just did mine.  I left it blank, or I ball parked it (I can't remember).  I've been getting my awards in tidbits as I fight and I've lost count of the actual amount.

Hello, I have just concluded my 3B release process and will be starting my retirement leave 1 March this year (whopping 2 days).  For me the time line was as follows just an FYI for others.  Keeping in mind I chose to waive disclosure and representation. 8 Months for PCAT to come in from DMED...

blcbandit, 1.  Read the forums, you'll find the answer. 2.  Do a search, you'll find the answer. 3.  Remember 1 & 2 for next time, here's you're answer: The MedTech did not administer the test wrong.  You were given a V4 Category (not the end of the world btw).  The recruiting medical world...

[Begin Delusion  :stars:]  What has been done has been done.  What is, is.  Wake up, smell the coffee, move on with life.  We're all Canadian end of story :cdnsalute:.  My wife is German/Canadian on both sides.  Our Children will learn about both the paternal and maternal sides.  But they will...

:goodpost: The Peace Officers in our Country, who enforce the laws, do have the ability to use their head. I'm from Northern Ontario, it is not uncommon in the rural areas to see people in Canadian Tire with Medium Pocket Knives or Fixed Blades (Not so much anymore) on their belts.  That's...

Worst photoshop ever; 1. A very quick Google search shows nothing 2. A Very quick search of CTVNews.ca shows nothing 3. Nation is not spelled NATHAN    :facepalm: 4. If you zoom in you can tell the image was altered

:crybaby: Ok, now seriously though, is anyone surprised about this??  It's amazing that as we keep meeting the standard a new one appears. Uh, guess we didn't get that memo/e-mail.  Where was the message published to so I can look it up and get it passed around tomorrow at work? Thanks

Here's my  :2c: I think that we are at a cross roads in our Nation's History.  There is still lots of room for a peaceful solution to this.  However, if just one person from either side, makes a mistake, whether it is a leader or someone else there could be a tragedy.  Saying this, though...

Frank Herbert's Dune, a nice classic.  I have the series on my tablet.
