    Posting Policy-Out of Canada (OUTCAN) [MERGED]

    To any of those posted OUTCAN to the US (Scoobs, I'm looking at you here...) what did you do with your vehicle? Apparently, because I don't have an integrated tire pressure monitoring system on my car I don't "conform" to US standards and can't import the car. However, the CBP website does say...

    Air Force Nurse

    Incorrect. There will be absolutely NO DIFFERENCE between you, a nurse in a navy uniform and a nurse in an army uniform. Nursing is a purple trade, as you mentioned in your original post. The only difference between the elements is the colour of our uniforms. That is it.

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    I was told the exact same thing when I was in the exact same situation. What I got was a great job, a ton of opportunities and pretty decent pay. What I didn't get was back pay for my tuition or books etc. This was over 10 years ago so your mileage may vary but don't expect it. If I knew I...

    Posting Policy-Out of Canada (OUTCAN) [MERGED]

    Thanks for the reply dapaterson. Yes she will have to apply for both a visa and license to work in the states. That is step two. Step one is confirming that she is in fact allowed to work as far as the CF is concerned.

    Picture on CBC

    I was reading this article today: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/joining-the-military-jarring-for-some-aboriginals-report-1.2751791 which I don't find particularly insightful or shocking, but I'm curious about the picture at the top of the article. Why would the flags be resting on the...

    Challenger/"VIP" Jet/CF Chopper Use (CDS, others) [merged]

    The Challengers are also used for domestic medevac, and not too (that being relative) infrequently.
