Well they probably got two of the best postings the army has, my sympathy is limited. Anyways I wonder what the Air Force types would think of stagin our F35s out of the Baltics as part of our forward presence until we get our house in order vis a vis security. We could even ask regular BAP...

So now cultural standards matter. My point is we aren’t one job with some standard. We are many jobs with many standards. We have single standards for jobs, and in that standard are clothes meant to fit soldiers. As we expect them all do so their job, regardless of their bodies. So that means...

A city of a million people that’s still affordable is god forsaken? It’s not like it’s Shilo.

Which job? Most of the combats arms would struggle to get a medical degree. Is that the standard and the job?

Spain and Italy operate air forces much larger than ours, roughly twice the size of ours, and they don’t include helicopters to pad it. Spains is 23000 while Italy’s is 43000. In short they can operate a mixed fighter fleet because they have far far more technicians and support personnel to...

Ahhh misread that, well managed specialties backed by CFAOs have their advantages.

We have our own budget, we aren’t worried about people “coming for us.”

We got the same, our cell is pushing for as many items as we can and is actively engaging LCMM for others. Other batteries? They aren’t getting it.

Cultural norms matter because we actually want our members to enjoy wearing service dress on some level, to find it comfortable for their bodies, and to think they look professional.. possibly even good. Yes our uniforms are filled with individual adjust to reflect the accomplishments of the...

Well we are a species with sexual dimorphism, in a society that has a cultural history of gendered clothing. So on one count we have cultural perceptions, which is why we even have service dress to begin with, to address. We also have the fact that women’s bodies are shaped differently to men’s...

Well you generally used to have enough officers to have more than one foo in a regiment.

Because they generally have been? Yeah if every pilot was obliged to become a test pilot as part of their regular career progression.

MN Div North Is headquartered in Adazi.

I was providing the context for how I read your comment as wholesale, or near wholesale, exchange.

Yes but that comment (@PuckChaser) was a response to a comment (@Kilted) about moving two HQs wholes sale back and forth. So in that context your response reads as supporting whole sale moves, which is why I asked for clarity.

Right I think there’s some confusing responses and phrasing that read like full scale movement of the entire head quarters which would seem like a massive disruption for marginal gain - I’d like to assume we can count on our senior officers to be a bit more professional.

Sorry are you suggesting they rotate the location of the Div HQ regularly? or do you mean the people inside it? I assume @PuckChaser meant moving the HQ staff complete to be a Div HQ in a different province.

Well no, the sheet is paper, the pay system is computer based. Not to say it’s modern.

Respectfully there’s where you said scale up without computers. I see now there’s some double negatives in there so I may have missed your intent. I took your comments in conjunction with the previous poster’s comments about how we don’t need to consider them because they didn’t exist 30 years ago.

We use computers for every step of administration. Any upscaling of training in mobilization will a)be more efficient because of them and b) require a mass purchase of computers. For example a candidate arrives at training centre their information is all stored in digital form - as opposed to...
