This only applies to the awarding of the Silver Star to the US Navy and Marine Corps. The Silver Star was placed into law by Congress in 1942.

Nice try Blackadder but your first two references only apply to awards to US Navy & Marine Corp personnel. Nothing in there about awards to non US military personnel. As for your last link it covers laws passed by Congress from 1995 to 2016. Can you be a little more specific. Check this...

You just don't give up do you. Please show me a reference that the Silver Star could be awarded before this 2015 change? Not meaning going back to WW2 either but lets say in the year 2000.

Yes you are correct. It appears to have changed on 03/13/2015.

I highly doubt writing your thesis during your basic infantry course would be a good idea or even possible. Your basic infantry course will be more intense than your basic training. Yes you will have some evenings and weekends off but far from all of them. Things can and will change at the drop...

It is the US rules which currently prohibit awarding the Silver Star to foreign troops.

The Bronze Star is currently approved for being awarded to foreign troops unlike the Silver Star. I never stated a Canadian soldier could not be awarded a Bronze Star if approved by the Canadian government.

Colin that was Molson's Brador.

May have happened in the past but not possible now unless the Canadian is serving in(not with) the US Armed Forces. The FSSF was an amalgamated (US/Canadian) unit. May have played a big part. Now the Canadian would be awarded a Canadian medal.

As for the Silver Star it is only awarded to members of the United States Armed Forces. If a Canadian was serving in the United States Armed Forces than the Canadian Governor General would not likely even be consulted to it's awarding to a serving member of the United States Armed Forces.

I meant they are like foreign awards and placed behind the Canadian medals.

I'd sure like you to provide a reference to your comment. US Ranger tabs for instance are permitted if earned. I'm sure there are others. Where your wear your medals (either Canadian or foreign)or qualifying badges depends on depends on what uniform you are wearing(or not wearing) at the time...

I believe you will find the dress regulations that would apply to an Emergency Services uniform would be set by the Emergency Service itself. As long as he isn't wearing anything not earned as that would fall under Federal law.

Ha that's funny. [lol: Tracking school but couldn't even find their only one other post which blew away their hidden location.

Sugar_cookie the original poster has not been on the forum for almost 10 years now. The second replier has not been active for almost 2 years. Here's hoping someone else may respond to this so your husband can reconnect with old buddies. Pro Patria

And none of this applies to a Provincial Liquor License Act offenses. And even for the Highway Traffic Act offenses it general only applies to neighboring jurisdictions.

Care to explain this George? If a provincial offense of public intoxication is laid and the charged offender does not respond to the charge and is out of province, they will never issue a arrest warrant outside of the province the charge is laid in. Many offenders with far more serious charges...
