Talk with a clerk first as marriage after a posting will affect one of your cost moves.

As an officer, you will find yourself having to balance the letter against the intent.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm under the impression those moved at public expense retain these.

Before this gets out of hand, I'd like to complain about how the military handles my volunteering. For starters, the time off. If it isn't short or buckshee, it's special. Only once or twice have I had to use annual. How ignoble. Then there's the recording it in my appraisals. Like I need my...

My favorite is paying to register my kids and then volunteering my time to coach/lead... which requires me to take a course at personal expense.

Not even close to true.

I realize this is becoming increasingly tangential, but I'm genuinely curious - is a CS01 equivalent to a Cpl in terms of responsibility?  Does a CS01 require any special education?  Who provides it?

At Captain 10, a pilot will earn $112,000 a year.  That same individual would earn $150,000 to $200,000 from Air Canada.  This, of course, isn't relevant as the CF's pay is baselined off federal employee classifications and not whatever convenient examples we can find.

May I recommend you take a moment to read about Military Factor.  I'm not sure which classification NCM and Officers are benchmarked against; however, because of military factor, we automatically make more than our civilian counterparts who aren't entitled to PLD and environmental allowances. ...

Never in the 90's did I hear anyone saying how it was done in the 60's.

The CANFORGEN on polyamorous service couples is awaiting draft.

Before this gets locked, I just want to add some points. Administration, like so many other aspects of command, is often delegated down.  This includes the authority to approve and deny certain requests. Occasionally, delegated authority comes with caveats - eg the authority to approve but not...

True, as well as the right to grieve.

I again disagree.  The Adjt was likely delegated the authority to address these requests; it's a fairly common function.  COs routinely devolve authority to address requests and administration on his or her behalf. 

As an adjt, I would routinely answer on the CO's behalf. Some of this included the delegation to approve or deny requests for leave. If perhaps there was something particularly unusual about the request, either a glowing recommendation or personally compelling reason, I'd send it up. But a 1:1...

Has anyone thought to read the government property traffic act and regulations?

I'd be more worried about knowing if a bench warrant can be issued for that!

Be aware of dress regulations and prescribed accommodation and apply standards with due diligence.

Although resolution appears to be had here, there seems to be some issue with pragmatism. Quote, I believe your intent was to actually ask if a chain of command can impose a more restrictive standard than those set out in regulations, orders, instructions, and policies.  The answer is a...
