    Is this normal?

    Mainse, I was more curious about what your motivation is/was in posting this topic, and have read your other thread concerning leaving high school and recruiting posted last year.  I presume during the time that you have been waiting;  you have not gone back to school, are waiting for the call...

    Ottawa Remembrance Day

    I attended the ceremony at the War Museum (DEUs) with my mom last year.  It was special as my grandfather WW2 Vet had just passed away last October.  Free entrance to the museum on Remembrance Day (not that it matters.)  The ceremony was great and they had a meal after; Friends Of The War Museum...

    :+1:  The medical system is extremely in tune with OSIs and treatment. I mentioned on my blog that the meds alone would undo a 'normal' person.  Equally in peer groups / discussions, a faker would be outed pretty quick. I have learned a great deal from the civilian EMS, police, firefighters that...

    Dogger, you really hit it with that last post - thanks.  Btw, the seroquil is really helping with the sleep and I'm 5 nights solid now. Damn it was a rough 3 months after Homewood. All the best, Dan.

    Guys I really need some advice about my life.... joining the army is an option

    Adam, I appreciate the intent of your post.  In my humble opinion the privilege of working towards receiving the Queen's Commission should not be a 3rd option to the above. I highly recommend you visit the recruiting centre. In the interim perhaps read some of the publications at this link...

    VAC and Tinnitus

    You have to decide what it is that you're actually claiming.  I.e Tinnitus or hearing loss subsequent to tinnitus.  It is possible to have tinnitus without hearing loss - frequency loss yes; however a person still can be a H1/H2 with tinnitus.  If your claim is for tinnitus - then you have to...

    Living with an OSI.

    I correspond with UK/US mbrs with PTSD, though don't read too much into their news and concur with the 48th regarding CF treatment.  Many previous vets paved the road less travelled IOT get the services available now.  In that respect I feel fortunate with both the COC and Medical system...

    GPS Smash And Grab

    Good Monday morning, I was on the receiving end last Thursday night / sucks.  If you have a GPS and the tendency to leave it in your vehicle - really not a good idea.  All the best. Details on blog - http://www.enduringleaves.org/2010/11/gps-smash-and-grab.html

    DND/VA HELP PLEASE!

    I went through it in 2002 over a leg injury.  Prior to the Board, I met with the lawyer and asked him directly what I needed to do and more importantly what he needed me to do and say in order to win.  Things worked out.  Good luck / all the best.

    Sound off: What are you doing right now? Aside from the obvious being on here..

    Taking the little guy (5 yrs old) to get a haircut. He likes a #2 on the sides/back, trim the top, NO gel and a couple of suckers to go.

    Dealing with ethical and/or legal issues in operations

    From a historical perspective, it would be interesting to see if there are any declassified ROE or cards if they existed for Korea/WWII.  Must ask that question next time I'm at the War Museum.  It would be a great question to ask some of the vets at The Perley Rideau if the relationship was...

    Military and Facebook

    "heh" - what?  It doesn't matter if you looked at her profile - you're facebook pals.  Be prepared to add every pte/cpl from your org to your facebook page or provide an explanation why.  There is an important nuance in what Swingline1984 said above.  What do you think is going to happen when...

    Living with an OSI.

    Thanks for sharing your story Joe.  I can relate to your positive comments about the system.  I've heard good things about the Bellwood program from my peers. It's a grind at times and things do get better. Congrats on staying off the booze, I followed the same track - treatment at Meadowcreek...
