    I have to format a bilingual document (the side by side) format, and its not going very well. Is there an aide-memoire or a link (I tried googleing it) or something that would point to how it should be laid out?

    What are you doing Remembrance Day 2009?

    I marched with my cadets in Victoria. Unfortunately I had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction on the march, which was very poor on my part, but had that squared away before the regimental remembrance day service. It was humbling to be there, my first remembrance day after being in KAF. Good turnout...

    Sacrifice Medal Mega Thread

    Or........... Timmies Worker burns hand while pouring coffee during rocket attack ;) (insert civilian cleaner if you wish) I agree with Loachman. I have only seen a wound stripe once and it was a lot more striking than the wearer's medals.

    CF Postal Unit Trenton

    I'm not really sure actually, sometime in late may - june. It was sent by somebody else.  I know I addressed it, but my house didn't get any notices to pick it up from the postman (or final notices, or whatever).  I figured 'cause it was a big box of stuff it might take longer for it to go due...

    CT / Enrollment with CIC [Merged]

    a tip - Make a resume that shows your life experience / jobs and past CCO experience (do it in a functional format). Its not required, but helps to give the CO a picture of you before he's met you. I made one that showed my skills from outside cadets and as I got more skills in the...

    CT / Enrollment with CIC [Merged]

    Personally, for me I usually email the corps CO, and follow up using a phone call. Parade nights can be a zoo for everyone - especially if there's something special going on  and showing up at 6 30 when the sqn is about to fall in and the CO is being bombarded by parents and the sponsoring...

    Anyone out there have an email contract for them? I have a friend who was searching on the DIN for me but she got sidetracked. I had a parcel sent from KAF to here a while ago and it never arrived. It was sent after I left and had all my nice treasures in it. Of course, I think I'm probably...

    Tunic Length

    Toast to/Table for the Fallen (merged)

    When I was at Mirage for Christmas, there was a small table set to the side of the dining area that was in honour of the fallen - the PMC read out what each item signified. Does anyone have the text for this? the only one I could find while googling was for a Vietnam POW from the US.
