    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    Springroll - You got me thinking - one of the issues we have at the camps is boredom on the weekends. We could structure some of the "Optional" content into a Saturday or Sunday afternoon training - Optional to the course - which could act as a "sampler" for younger Cadets already engaged in CL...

    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    Very true - and the realistic expectation - However I still think its possible to field this in the next two years. ACTUALLY - this is very much on my mind for the GTA area / Central Region/"32 Brigade" Cadets - MC has a great two weekend outline adapted from the SJA Wilderness curriculum and...

    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    All good points - and I agree - The Ottawa Area - Likely Connaught, would be a good idea Also I had not considered the "I" part of CLI - Hmmmm that's a thinker, cause now you compete with Rocky Mountain, the exchanges and Para for the best candidates. I was really hoping for that 3rd year 15+...

    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    National CLI Camp?  (3rd Years) Probably... Thoughts? Location? I'm thinking CFB Borden / Blackdown, being close to CFMS and field trip-able  To Toronto for other resources But then again I'm a Toronto person... (don't hate me - I was "Army of the West" for a long time...)

    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    Hi Folks Many many thanks to those that continue to contribute to this thread - MedCorps in particular - and I hope will continue to do so. I'm amazed at the speed with which we can collaborate on an idea such as this. As I'm somewhat inside the system I'm happy to start running with this...

    Summer Camp Weekends

    1) Quick Question for Cadets who have attended  summer camp in the last couple of years - On the Weekends what were you doing? Training? Waiting around? Would you rather have been training? 2) for the Staff - Officers & Staff Cadets - Were you paid on the weekends? (i.e. Paid by the day?) Is...

    Cadet FA/ Medical stuff..........

    While you might be losing your harshness - grin - I actually do agree. One of my thoughts in reexamining the First aid program at the Corps level is that a number of these kids will go on to the regular force, perhaps overseas -OR- In Civilian life they may someday find themselves in a bad...

    What camps should there be?

    As an Instructor / Platoon Commander at Banff in the 80's I found the "Medicine for Mountaineering" By James Wilkerson (ISBN 0898867991) an awesome resource, as we would find our selves 2 days on a trail from anywhere and at altitudes that were not so Helicopter friendly. I'm very interested...

    What camps should there be?

    (Whats an NSB? I'm out of my lane, Engineer wise) Really good points - I was , of course not even THINKING of explosives - because that's a little silly. The major stopping points are Personal, hardware and managed risk vs reward/experience - I was thinking about Log bridges we built in the...

    Is that an ELCAN?

    Go 6! Sweet ride. Do all the spent casings and link add to the Vehicle's ballistic protection? Or just no shovel handy?  ;) Be safe!

    What camps should there be?

    This is a great thread - and frankly something that should be discussed more and incorporated into course development. I'd like to see an "Engineering" course. Bridge Building, construction etc I also like the idea of a Medic course - Build on the foundation of First aid, but gung ho it up...

    "Army Agenda" and covers for such

    Good point Recce! I'm doing some research in support of a project that could be used as a fund raiser for an Army Cadet Corps or Army Cadets in general if the concept scales as I think it would. (Tagging gets a little tired after a while, selling chocolate bars a pain, so we are looking at an...

    "Army Agenda" and covers for such

    Hi Folks Interested in hearing from people that use or have used the "Army Agenda" planner offered by Canex:   What do you like about it?   What do you think needs to be improved?   How does it compare to a Daytimer or Covey or other "Name brand" you may have used?   Would you buy a...
