They are - one of the aims of COATS was to allow injured/wounded NCMs and Officers to serve - and the positions aren't just at a cadet corps. Some positions are of course, designated CIC (in which you would have to transfer) but the majority will be COATS designated in the future.

Yeah, they're really great. My house was cold so needed a bit of hot air blast. Whats your trade/occupation?

Thats a really great idea! the person we're sending it to has a laptop - i know when I was over there, even in KAF we all shared our music and it was good after a while to get some new music (even if we had access to CDs at the PX lol).

So I've seen a few threads about care packages (and what not to put in them!), but I know things have changed since my little stint over in KAF in 09.........my Cadet corps is adopting a former cadet who has gone overseas and is currently in a FOB. We are sending a small banner signed by all of...

Question for those who are more in the know than me - A member was given a Commander's Commendation from Communication command in the 1980s (for working with cadets).  From what I gather, the command doesn't exist and therefore is not in the list of eligible commands listed on the Honours and...

Hmm.........so far this year, Seven (plus the navy ball coming up ;)) and I'm a wee Lt ;) There is a CIC Officer around here that wore his former mess kit.......I figured he had been in for some 30 odd years..........turns out he was in for about a year - he's been in the CIC branch for over...

On a similar vein, is there a time limit for the tailor (outside of that directive, perhaps in a contract somewhere?) I managed to end up with no DEU pants (long story) - I have three pairs, which all require tailoring, but I don't really want to wait a month to get them back (the skirt thing...

I second this - as somebody who was on the receiving end of the tow plane complaints........ No minqueries this summer :) (yet)

Good to know - I'll call wing TIS tommrow when I clear into the gliding school........I tried plugging it into a dwan port that was 'active' but it still didn't work

Yup - logged on, did everything, got shown how to use the PKI card and the DVPNI on shaw but before we did the DVPNI login it was plugged into the DWAN port and worked.

Question from the un-dwan initaited, I was given a DWAN laptop for use while on TD. The laptop is from Esq and I am at 19 Wing...............can I plug it into a 19 wing dwan port and will it work?  or will I just have to rely on hopefully getting internet installed in my barrack block and...

I was actually looking forward to it too - I have only been in the job a short time so would like some feedback (haven't had a PDR either....hmmm). I'm not too worried as I am a reservist and obviously its not the same as ya'll regforce guys.  Everytime I asked about it I was told I was 'too...

I haven't got mine......and wont get it until September (heading on TD). Oh well..........

Perhaps somebody could explain this to me - I'm on a class B contract of over 180 days. I will be proceeding on TD for 69 days (Cadet Summer Trg Center). I'm trying to find out if I have an entitlement 2 days leave before my TD, specifically whether TD of that length counts as an...

Does nayone know if the male shirts are longer than female ones? I have a long torso and I have to wear huge shirts - fit great on the shoulders and sleeves. and length wise ,however its quite large around the wast and looks untidy no matter what I do. I'm told the base tailor won't tailor them...

There is one in Esquimalt. I too am contemplating a social work career - am working on pre-social work and am waitlisted for the Manitoba program. Hopefully next year - so please, keep positing how things are going :)

There is one I know of.

Is it just MO and NO's that take the course, or do social work officers take this as well? The recruiter had no idea what I was talking about.

Keep seeing you guys around (I work at work point) and today at the parade - you guys looked like a nicely turned out bunch, even without cap badges ;) Good luck!

Yup - the CO made us have a parade practice so we looked 'good'. We had a lot of staff who hadnt been on parade in oh, 20 years.
