    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    CFAT Waivers are incredibly rare but do exist. I work with a former CWO who was commissioned to Captain.  After several years, he transferred to the Primary Reserves, and because of his commissioning plan, reverted to CWO.  For him to become a captain again, he had to write the CFAT.  Although...

    March leave? DND down time?

    In BMQ one learns the proper means to seek clarification. I agree, a forum like this is not the right one, but not asking one's instructor or supervisor to clarify a situation is a very, very bad habit to get into.

    Two CF members arrested in Petawawa over Cpl Bloggins Facebook page

    Both disciplinary actions under the Code of Service Discipline and administrative actions are meant to address a CF member’s conduct or performance deficiency. They may operate independently or one may complement the other.

    First, I want to thank you for pointing me in the right direction.  I do not have access to 381, and the only mention to requisiteness of AVCC is done in the TP to AVAM.  I still have several reservations about what you've said, but this is not the proper vehicle to address them.  However, IAW...

    You're absolutely right.  We should verify our humor return prior to placing ammo select on asshole.  As this particular image is making the rounds, I had assumed above was making timely reference and engaged in a sutle reference.

    Is this what you expect of vehicle commanders?  Magic space wizards?

    Yeah, I hear that drum beaten often.  Too busy to prepare and train properly.  We'll make it up on the fly. I recall hearing ages ago that the Americans didn't have a specific gunnery course for their LAV-2 - gunners were given a picture of the reticle and were just expected to learn it from...

    Call me new fashioned, but I like the idea of training our soldiers for the jobs they have to perform.  We've abandoned too much over the past 15 years and we really need to return to our roots as a professional, highly trained, competent force rather than the good-enough cowboys we are fast...

    AVAM has two POs - operate mounted TCIS and conduct vehicle movement, neither of which are really made redundant by other training.  It requires three training days. Operate mounted TCIS could be added to ATCIS - that course is already over 40 days, so what's one more?  Unfortunately, that also...

    No, Armoured Vehicle Administrative Movement is another course but it is one of the prerequisites to AVCC.
