Midnight Rambler's translation of the word pictures associated with letter grades appears to be more useful than the one in current use.  Regardless of the words used, everything above an "F" is a pass.  Passes are sub-divided into four categories of performance. Re:  his comment about...

An "A" isn't impossible, but show me a Capt who is ". . . capable of executing the skill at two rank levels up" (i.e, at the rank of LCol) and I'll show you an "A".  Anecdotal evidence is that only two of the thousands of officers who have graduated the AOC (or its equivalent) since the...

Moderators - would a thread split be in order? I'd like to address the nonsense quoted above. I've just finished my third year as a member of the AOC Directing Staff, have instructed on eight iterations of Tutorial One and two of Tutorial Two, and served as a mentor to battle group and brigade...

You owe me a new keyboard . . .

It certainly was.

I still have mine, as well.  There was at least one occasion, however, where it was carried outside 2 RCR lines (perhaps with an attendant bending of the rules). In the spring of 1985, I reported to the RCR Battle School as an augmentee course officer and had brought my ash plant.  The RSM...

Well put, Mike.   Happy New Year to you and to all at milnet.ca.

The last time I worked at NDHQ, I was able to rent a parking spot from one of the churches on Laurier, just east of Nicholas, for a very reasonable fee (less than $100/month, if I recall).  That was in 2003/2004. It may be worth a couple of phone calls, if you're going to be working at 101...

CQMS = Company Quarter Master Sergeant

I should clarify . . . I had in mind the kind of lieutenant that had not/not been commissioned from the ranks or been through the OCTP (M)/UTP (M) (or whatever the heck those programs are being called now).

A lieutenant with a CD or a major without one.

My all time fave - a trio of horrible, but angry, musicians from Michigan with what could possibly be the best band name ever - the Crucif$#@s.  Best song?  "Hinckley Had A Vision".

Let the national trauma begin . . . A sad day in Montreal, to be sure, but I can't bear to hear the word "devastated" one more time.  I am sure that we soon will see the crowds of psychiatric counselors descend to "help" all those who witnessed this tragedy, who saw it on television, who heard...

My favourite nickname for NDHQ?  Fort Fumble on the Rideau . . .

". . . [t]hey also brush on PDSS and . . ." Do you mean PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder)?  PDSS, if I remember correctly, is the acronym for Persons of Designated Special Status.

I know Brent Beardsley - he is the last man on earth to exercise self-censorship, in any circumstance.
