    No DP2A at Meaford this summer?

    While sitting miles from desk, and not having a copy of the ARC schedule in front of me, I believe I saw 2 serials of IPSW scheduled for the summer.   However as my Crusty Regimental Comrade has stated, LFCATC has scratched courses at the last minute numerous times.  I have a feeling this will...

    Gen. Hillier pushes plan to boost army enrolment

    Speeding up and stream-lining the medical process, would add more recruits than aiding with them gaining their citizenship.  Also, it would probably help a little, if we spent some money on advertising.  Especially on the 'toon side of the house.

    Armd Recce Reserves on Deployment: Soldiers or Fillers

    And my point, in brief, is that as the theatre evolves there may be a demand for those skills.  For certain TFs it has been decided that we will not be deploying recce sqns , but rather surveillance sqns.  That means reduced Reserve augmentation.  Once we start sending over recce tps and recce...

    Traditional Beret Colours and thoughts on the tan beret?

    Further to 41s last... The Essex Regt that is being confused with the Essex Regt Tank, is a TA Unit in England (Infact it's the Allied Regt to the EK Scot).  The Windsors, formerly Essex Regt Tank (as Recceguy pointed out), where formed as the only Tank Regt in Canada.  We drew our capbadge...

    Hatches down!Please!!!

    At least they went hatches up when the order to dismount occurred.  As everyone is now very aware, as soon as the commander is buttoned up, it severely limits the vision that every one has.  My suggestion is just that, when there is even the remote chance (on Ex) of some unsuspecting individual...

    Military I.D. and the LCBO- A "situation"

    Keep in mind, the Temp ID does kind of look odd, compared to the rest of the Govt IDs issued.  Most are computer generated, and extremely common.  When there is only appx 100 000 CF ID cards in circulation compared to 37+million Drivers licences I can see how she questioned it.  The clerk at the...

    Armd Recce Reserves on Deployment: Soldiers or Fillers

    This is what the rumoured TF 1-07 is supposed to include.  However the arguement will be and is, the majority of experience is in the Reg Force units (particularly in one trade), and therefore it would make more sense somehow to attach a modified India 60 to a Recce Sqn rather than to employ a...

    Armoured Recce Vehicle

    Remember, Coyote is not a Recce Veh.  It's a Surveillance Veh (Both RMSS and MMSS variants).  As for the Convoy Escort being a recce task.  Yes, it's a Tp Task minimal, optimally a Sqn task.  The lead elements are moving either in Leap Frog or Caterpillar (Alternating or Consecutive for the...

    Hatches down!Please!!!

    Is this decree strictly for drivers, or does it include CC, Gunners and GIBs?  If it's strictly for drivers, it should make little impact (so long as common sense is used).  However if it also includes Commanders and Gunners, then there will be a problem.

    CLI C-7 training

    It's really a availibility of C7s issue more than anything else.  As you guys have figured out, your units do not hold C7s or have any entitlement to them.  What has to happen is the Corps has to get in touch with the affliate unit, and ask for their support.

    Different BMQ's

    Out of curiosity, what other courses do you have besides BMQ/SQ, DP1 Supp Tech?  I just find it odd that guys are getting RSBPs with component transfers, but you're getting nailed in a elemental transfer.

    Just tell the recruiter you want to be a crewman.   They'll figure out the rest.

    summer 2005 bmq in meaford

    I'll let you in on a little secret, C*ck is for the most part self induced.  Yes as instructors we do have to put a fair bit of stress on you, however the additiional stuff, is as I said self induced.  Plus I like to think of it remotivation. ;D
