...and yes I have my own residence surrounded by personnel enjoying the benefits of PLD.

When I put in my application form for PLD and then came back the next week to see if it was actioned I was told that there is a policy change stating untrained recruits are no longer eligible for PLD.  That they will become eligible once they are "trained in trade" or OFP "Operationally Function...

I transferred over in Aug 13 and was told that untrained recruits are no longer entitled to PLD, (policy change in Ottawa).  You become eligible for PLD once you become "trained in trade", for most trades OFP or QL3.  For me, 4 years of University then a 4 month trade course.

Two MCDVs have been consistently tied up (extended readiness) for several years on the East Coast, (since shortly after KIN electrical fire in '09?).  One has been zero manned, with only the two Regular force billets being filled (when possible) and the other with whatever crew could be...

SHAD = Suave, Handsome and Debonair. It is good to see some recognition for the MCDV sailors.  Being a very cost effective platform, those hulls and the pier head jumping sailors don't always get the pat on the back they deserve.

Boatswains drive (steer) the ship, while the Officer of the Watch conns (controls the movements) the ship, (think nagging wife/husband in the front passenger seat telling you where to turn but you have to listen).

There is also new direction for joining members and PLD.  If you are not "trades' qualified, (QL3/OFP but don't quote me on that) you are no longer entitled to PLD.  This direction came out in August from Ottawa and currently applies to new members and CT's going into the Regular Force and into...

...and electric shock collars if they spend too much time at the water cooler.  :stars:

Yes, they successfully tested the Scan Eagle set up off the GLACE BAY in fall of 2009.

This makes little sense to me.  Every CT I've processed over the past 3 years the Reservist has kept their Rank level pay and IPC while they were OCdts/NCdts attending university.  Once they graduate/graduated the are/will be concurrently promoted to SLt/A/SLT to LT/SLt(N) and take the IPC on...

The OP is worried that their paperwork is disappearing into a "blackhole".  My advice to ask for the registry number was to ensure it would not disappear again.  Feel free to keep rolling your eyes though.

DAOD 2017-1 Military Grievance Process The CO must: determine, upon receipt of an NOI, the best complaint mechanism to resolve the complaint, including IR (Informal Resolution); - acknowledge receipt of the grievance in writing; - assign an assisting CF member if requested; - register the...

Once a grievance is submitted to a CO, the CO is supposed to call the Canadian Forces Grievance Board and be issued a tracking number for that grievance.  If all the paperwork is "lost", (hopefully you have retained a copy of your original submission), ask for the tracking number or resubmit it...

I got a phone call from the the file manager in Ottawa Friday.  I applied for ROTP CE Officer but was told I did not get it.  I was however going to be offered Sig O Civy U and the offer would be in in about 2 weeks, (Sig O or nothing I was told).  She just wanted to give me a heads up.  So the...

....and back to the OP's question. If you complete your nursing studies and join as a nurse prior to your clinical phase you would most like join as a SLt and be placed on the BTL.  You would do your 3 clinical placements in civilian hospitals as the CF does not have the same sort of...

PLQ changed ~2008 so that it was equivalent across elements, (MODs 1-5 common to all elements, with the Army doing a MOD 6 - Field Tactics).  So I'm pretty sure your PLQ would be granted to you.  The major differences in the course would be some of the EDO's done in a NAVY environment would...

I don't have the CFPAS handbook with me, but there is a section that deals with replacement PERs.  Basically you have 60 days from the date you sign your PER to request a replacement PER.  This is an alternative to a Redress and allows everyone to save face. What I suggest is that when you sign...

The extra point will be given to those who are competent in their element's third most used language: Army - Arabic, for Middle East Operations Navy - Spanish, for Latin American hailing and interdictions Air Force - ProShop, for ensure prompt bookings of tee times and golf fees.

You originally said there were 3 incidents. I believe the issue that you perceive is that you tried to pull a fast one over on your school because you disagreed with their policy and got caught.  Whereas I believe the issue to be your lack of integrity, which reflects poorly on all Reservists...
