    Re: Does the US end its wars well?

    Not hard to find with satellite; the stench of Pan-Fried Cod, Brewis, Britches, Cod Tongues, Moose Meat, Jigs Dinner and Blue Potatoes coming out of the filtration system, leaves a cloud above the location.  Not to mention all the no smoking signs around the Screech containment facility above...

    Petawawa Thread- Merged

    I'm not qualified to respond to that one and a great factor to discuss with your real estate agent i.e. having a home will be marketable and sell quick in 3-5 yrs.  My uneducated observation at the weekly listings in the paper, is that there doesn't seem to have been a market correction in this...

    Ordered to burn accumulated leave.

    I agree in principle with your observation, supported yes - changing anything other than perhaps rewording the existing policy - no. My recommendation to Moxo is to focus on completing his tech course then redress the policy after.  Ask for an AO from his unit to assist with the process. ...

    Ordered to burn accumulated leave.

    Thanks for your observation DS.  I will wager for a beverage of your desire, that for right or wrong their (the school and his Unit COC) response will be similar to my post.  Fear not, there is no magic or error in my reading skills, though looking into my crystal ball I see that he is not the...

    Ordered to burn accumulated leave.

    Thanks for the link on the new manual. The short answer is yes / they can.  Section 5.5 and 5.6 Special Leave Military Courses and Education.  Sections 5.5.4 and 5.6.4 give the limitations and authorization in your case, to expend all annual/accumulated before granting special.  Anecdotally...

Derek - appreciate your sincerity and putting yourself/story out there.  Notwithstanding the outstanding links/resources on this site for information, as noted by CDN Aviator - get thee to a recruiting office to have...

    Petawawa Thread- Merged

    Commences approximately in April / once the posting messages start being sent by the career managers.  The current demand is higher than the supply, and sorry don't expect it to get any better this summer.  Agree fully with the previous advice about looking outside of the village.  Anything you...

    Looking for some advice

    :2c: I believe a great deal of this community has spent much time away from their significant others.  Unless you are sitting on a pile of $$ - stick with the status quo.  Between moving her to Quebec, getting an apartment, furniture etc., communiting to St-Jean every day + living expenses, it...

    Disability Awards: I have a question about mine (merged)

    :2c:  They round up as well, i.e. 3%=5% / 8%=10% / 13%=15% you get the idea.  It often comes down to fighting for one % point to get you to the next level.  Good luck with the appeal process / all the best.  :cdn:

    What's the dumbest thing you heard said today?

    :2c:  Not that easy as 'sweat it out' and a person can die from alcohol withdrawl syndrome if not going through a medically controlled detoxification.  Agree with your intent of doing more.  First responders are legally responsible for the physical/mental (hence the form system) wellbeing of the...

    Anyone able to help ID the unit/taskforce of these guys?

    Took another look at the photo / indeed no blue.  Thanks to Cdn Aviator and yourself for pointing that out.  Swear I recall seeing similar pics of pioneers during that time (blue ball caps) OP CAVALIER R/0 and OP HARMONY R/5.  The RSMs were CWO Irvine and CWO Bentley respectively.  WRT the...

    Anyone able to help ID the unit/taskforce of these guys?

    :cheers:  We laughed when the pics came out then and I still get a smile at those now.  The Pl Comd had an equally fine beard. With respect to timelines.  2 RCR was there 92/93 augmented by B Coy 1 RCR.  1 RCR then returned augmented by 2 RCR K Coy? in 94/95.  Was there for both and my tours...
