    Army Communication & Information Systems Specialists (Sig Op, Lineman and LCIS Amalgamation)

    Why? because it sounds cool to talk like an American from Generation Kill on the nets? Thing I used to love about being a Sig Op was how widespread the trade was, covering such a huge training spectrum. Overseas, i could be troubleshooting the IP scheme on a tactical satellite link one morning...

    Enhanced Reliability Check (ERC) - Merged

    If they didn't tell you in person it should be in the letter, but did anyone specify what it was that caused you to be declined? Is it past credit issues, or is it criminal background? If it's credit, do you currently have high levels of dept and/or are you currently under collections? Have...

    It shouldn't be either, but there's more sigs resources and personnel available for OJT. Makes too much sense. Plus it seems the school has spent so much effort pushing off responsibility I don't think they'll ever take it back.

    Sure, according to the MES managers. Tell that to the FIVE DP1's I have at a first line Sigs Tp. HQ and Sigs doesn't want to give up experience, so I get 5 guys who don't even know how to set up cam net, much less troubleshoot an LDN. Sure, for the most part they're eager to learn, but first...

    It can go one way, and not the other. In all the Management training I've received for the amalgamation, the MES Manager has been quite clear in that unless you're trained in one of the sub-occ's, you should not be employed in one of the positions. The crux here is, as everyone to the DP 2...

    I don't see any likelyhood of being "stuck" with CST or LST. I can foresee someone being with an interest in sub-trades being "stuck" in the Core trade. As far as choice, you'll identify your interest in a sub-trade, should you wish, but it won't be automatic that you get into it.

    Jeffrey Deslisle-former RCN, convicted of spying

    Interesting indeed. Regardless of guilt or innocence, I'm pretty sure that this is the first instance of prosecution of espionage in Canada. If anything, it should be a wake-up as to foreign interest and activities in this country
