    ROTP Pay Questions ?

    Yes, though it is not including things like credit card bills, cell phone bills, things of that nature. Just remember though, it is doable just watch your finances.

    ROTP Pay Questions ?

    From my experience, yes you can afford that. However, the caveat is that you will not have a lot of money for other things. Case and point: last year, in fourth year, I was making combined payments of close to $800/month from December through until May. So, it is possible to do but you must...

    CADPAT Rain Gear

    The new raingear is pretty much the norm at CFB Shilo now. I actually got issued a set, too. In my mind, a big step up over the old stuff.

    Uniforms at RMC

    Marksman, in my four years at RMC, I have seen a lot of change, perhaps the most negative being the removal of the #5s. The distinctive college dress uniform enstilled a great sense of pride in me when I wore it. It also reinforced the chain of command at the college by allowing barmen to...

    IAP in Kingston

    From my understanding of things, which is admittedly limited, it is quite unlikely that that will be the case. As I understand it, CMR will be offering a 2 year program, possibly three, which will cover prep year to a maximum of second year (though I believe it is only first year), after which...

    IAP in Kingston

    CMR will be reopening as a military college effective June 2008, hence why you are being sent there as a First Year cadet. I am not entirely sure on details, however this has been in the works for some time now.

    CAP vs. other infantry courses

    Just a quick little correction, the OIC of CAP stated at RMC MOC Weekend back in March that CAP is now 10 weeks long, and that candidates will be living in a tent city.

    WTB - Artillery Officer Sword Belt

    What I'm looking for is an artillery sword belt (not the standard white leather belt), preferably with the lionhead buckle. Since, from my limited understanding of things, the belt is built in specific sizes, I need a belt for a 32-34" waist. If you have this item or know somewhere, other than...

    Uniforms at RMC

    At the current point in time, Mondays and Wednesdays are designated as Operational Dress for Dress of the Day. What this means is that naval personnel wear Naval Combat Dress, Aircrew personnel who have been issued flightsuits wear flightsuits and the remainder of the Air Force personnel and...

    For those of you who have been asking, this is the standard CF 3B uniform with the RMC brassard on the left sleeve.

    Uniforms at RMC

    The day to day dress at RMC for the current year is what is called 3Bs, which is a pair of wool pants, a short sleeve shirt and depending on the season, a sweater. Next year, a new College dress uniform will be adopted for day to day wear. Furthermore, you would not be permitted to wear...

    I guess democracy doesn't work...protests on Afghan mission.

    From the Nelson, BC program info: This guy is outrageous, he never held a comission, he was never ordered to go to Afghanistan and therefore, it is impossible that he refused to deploy. How much longer are the peace protesters going to continue to rally around this fraud? As well, is it really...
