Dan, There is more to military life than just postings and deployments. There are NUMEROUS career and non career courses that your Chain of Command could and probably will send you on. I haven't been in the military long, only going on my 4Th year and going on my first deployment. That being...

Is this a trade you remuster into? Or is it a secondary duty, sort of like the Int Interrogation email I seen floating around, 2 year posting out of trade then back to your old job?

A Gentleman I work with completed his basic at 55. On my basic, we had a female at 53 going through as a trained dental tech. We treated her as a soldier.

I am pretty sure that answer is no, as the LTA is for you being the CF member. Also, what expenses could you have incurred that you would have not had to pay if you were home? Cat Food, Kitty Litter? Either way you would have paid for those items.

I like how every one of the commentors has a solution.......maybe they should send a letter to the CDS and tell him how to run his military.

Apparently every fire department in reach has sent every available engine, fingers crossed.

Also curious to know what the age requirements are to work at Tim Hortons in KAF (I know its gone now). Could a 16/17 year old not go to work in KAF at Timmies and come back to his Cadet Corps with a GCS?

Does any of that fancy SISIP insurance that they throw in your face during the DAG process cover disabling injuries, or does it only cover death.

Cadets could always use another "gimmie" medal. On another note, pertaining to the rangers. I know they live up there in the cold most of the time, but is there an Arctic Operational Service Medal or has there ever been talk of one? I know they are just doing their day to day job, but its...

Are you suprised that the Media makes errors because they don't double check? On another note, it appears Air Canada did everything they could at the time of the incident. Air Canada spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick comments, “Regrettably Tanner's electric chair arrived in damaged condition at La...

Good Stuff, one less piece of trash for the taxpayers to be burdened with in the prison system.

Has he even finished his basic training yet? If not I wouldnt be worrying about these things. If he goes to PRETC to await course, he could wait weeks or months. Nobody knows.

Odds are whichever course he is on will all select posting preferences at a specific time. Then it's in the hands of the Career Manager.

"Heaven" by Bryan Adams ............really?

If you have a spouse I assume you are either married or common law, which should be reflected on your paperwork you filled out when you joined. Also, you are on your spouse's MPRR as a Dependant correct? As far as the paperwork goes, yes you should go to the housing agency and get the letter...

I don't mean to speculate, but its also possible that the medals could have been traded for goods offered by said crack house. Stolen OR not.

From the looks of the result, people tend to trust those that "Keep them safe". Where as distrust seems to increase with those who take money from them for repairs (mechanics, plumbers, electricians). I find from my experience working in the mechanic industry, people tend to not believe that...

Judging from that stint I seen on the news, that excludes a lot of the Members of Parliament.

So you receive credit for the OPME, but not a University Credit?

So they ARE required to complete certain OPME's or are they just another option to take the course?
