He's right. Cam and Concealment used to be part of Fieldcraft, which went the way of the dodo, when they brought in the new Reference and Star pams, and got rid of the plastic covered, ringed, monstrosities. Now it is mostly taught from memory by a dying race of senior ncos that remember those...

I have this page bookmarked: http://www.actiongear.com/agcatalog/shemagh.html be warned that the pictures do not work right now. I will try to find another page with pictures to edit in here. EDIT: here is another picture-full page...

Probably not, but in Pac Region, all you have to do is have a CADET tab sewn on to the slip on, and it is allowed. Whether the CF members like it or not.

I figured that much, It just looked like it might somehow. Thanks anyways :)

I've wondered about this: Does the butt pouch get in the way when firing the rifle? I understand that it would be on the outside, but it just looks somewhat awkward.

From what I have read, the Rescue Orange beret is more of an internationally accepted colour for Search and Rescue, which would make sense. But I see the logic in a baseball cap  :P

If you want to go a bit further than the Canadian Army, don't forget the orange-ish berets of the SARTechs...although i've heard a few of them get MP Red berets, since the colours are so similar

You should still send it. The more people that suggest changes, the better chance we have of improving it.

Good point...unfortunately (to get into technicalities) Command Chief is abreviated as just CCWO

You should send this off to the company that is making the CadetPat, with a CC to the army cadet league BC branch.

I think she is just confusing the acronyms The CATOs (Cadet Administrative and Trainin Orders) are put out nationally for every corps regardless of size You are probably thinking of regional specific instructions, like MRO (monthly routine orders) or SOPs (standard operating procedues)

No they're not...if you bothered to read my post...

I just talked with my friend who was Pioneer staff, and they got issued steel toed safety boots. This is confirmed.

Actually the pioneer course's boots were not "issued" through the system, so to speak. They were bought by the camp stores specifically for the course cadets and staff.

You might have additional ROs or Routine Orders, issued by your CO, but you do not have different CATOs

Well then let's not go so far as to teach EVERY cadet C7 rifle drill. When I was on my CL course in 2000, we were taught C7 rifle drill, and I loved every second of it. It goes along with that "Stimulate an interest in the Canadian Forces" thing we teach as part of the aims of the CCM. I think...

They should be made Acting (Rank) until they meet all of the prerequisites

Geeze Dane, I was JUST going to say that...but thanks anyways...bugger :P

That's also circa '78 - early '90s

That's true, but before that, the badge was used for all CLI courses
