Thanks for the info, and good luck to you too on your next vision test, hope you'll make in the trade you are looking for. I was wondering, what do you mean by Still working on my English  :)

The landing of aircrafts on the Carrier in the storm was impressive, they are pretty good pilots. Too bad they didn't talk much about the US "MARS officer" job !

Usually I can't watch the good shows from PBS on the internet, as they are not available in Canada. This one caught my interest. For no reason, I thought Carriers are generally escorted by Frigates and/or destroyers. This one seems to be on its own most of the time, is that possible or just...

Sorry for the  :highjack: but I read the following news story about China becoming a leader in R&D. What is the proportion of Chinese technological breakthrough that comes from their Intelligence activities is still unclear in my mind, I might be an eternal paranoiac. China Ascendant by Sophie...

Some links to new chemical technology reports. Some are probably sponsored by the US and or British military. How long between R&D and applications? 1-Tune in for sensitive explosive detection by Anna Roffey in Highlights in Chemical Science, Volume 2010, 02 Scientists in Japan and Ireland...

Interesting question, by "googling" HMCS Halifax, HMCS Athabaskan and following the news you'll find some of the goods they are going to ship. Also in the following thread: http://forums.navy.ca/forums/threads/91568/post-904363#new quoted from today's...

As you might want to get laser eye surgery later on, don't forget to ask if there is any delay between stopping the use of the intacs lenses and the surgery. In my case (PRK), they asked to take the contact lenses out before surgery: a full 7 days for soft lenses, 14 days for Toric lenses, and...

Thanks Bill for your answers. I have a lot of admiration for Med Doc in the military, that was my dream when I was younger but didn't work out for me. Thanks to stick with the CF and to take care of our CF members. Regards,

Hey, I am almost there, but where should I go if I can read the last phrase ?  ;D

Got my PRK surgery last Thursday, today is Tuesday, got my protective lens removed and I can start to see again  :o My advice to anyone getting PRK done, make sure someone is around as much as possible for the first days to assist you as you might not see very well and thus it is not easy to...

J'ai la double nationalité aussi, France + Canada, et ca n'a pas posé de probleme jusqu'ici pour mon enrolement (MARS officer, reserve). A+

Yes, me too, thanks  :salute:

How does it work for DEO rank level (other than officer cadet, 2Lt) following/during BMOQ, is it related to the trade and/or the degree (BSc/BA, LLB, MSc/MA, PhD, MD, PharmD) ?

To people in the process of getting laser eye surgery: Don't forget to pick up the form (at your CFRC) that the ophthalmologist who operated your eyes will need to fill up only three months and one day after the surgery (PRK in my case) date.

Je ne veux pas manquer de respect à personne et je suis sûr que les pilotes dans le civil ont une job exigeante mais ont -ils le même nombre d'heures de service, les mêmes conditions de travail, les mêmes restrictions aux niveau des libertés (civile versus militaire) et même exposition aux...

C'est une bonne nouvelle, mais nos militaires de tous les rangs ne pourront pas faire de miracle si l'argent et les ressources humaines ne sont pas au rendez-vous pour réaliser ces nouveaux objectifs. Ceux sont les politiciens aux pouvoir qui décident où l'argent ira, il décident aussi des...

Happy New year, 2010 now in Montreal, 3 more hours to wait for the West Coasters.
