With that way of thinking there should only be three people competing.  Even the third place person needs to beat someone or they only came last. Someone has to come fifth and if they do better once in a while, Great.  You can never improve you personal best if you don't compete in a level at or...

I just have a problem seeing past, either way you rolled a truck by accident.  Why should one mother get a medal and the other not, just because her son got picked to go to a war zone.  I can see if a road side bomb caused the roll over, but that was not Always the case.  Maybe they should be...

Who are you compairing our great Olympians to that you feel they did not do great?  Look at how many people we have to pick from in our country.  Now compare that to other countries who have more people in one city then we have in our whole country.  Then look at how much money we have to spend...

I love the new sick days.  Getting short leave around here is like pulling teeth.  The boss and I can work out a sick day now a lot easier then a day's short leave.

So, let me get this right ; it's ok that my mother gets a medal when I die from a roll over in Afghanistan, but not if I die from a roll over in Wainwright getting ready to go to Afghanistan.  Interesting.

And to think I was happy that they dropped my renewal rate by that much

I took your advice Wes and had a few Dark and Dirties last night; a bit of the Captain, as we say. As I seen it, to lock it was to say that we don't want that type of foolishness around here.  To leave it open was to invite the type of degrading comments that came. It is nice to finely see...

And this was reopened for what reason? It seems to me that it was reopened just so people could crap on the poster in open form.  Nice to see it is encouraged to do so.  To bad us sometime posters are given warnings for doing the same thing.

Thank you for all the good info I have recieved both on this board and through e-mails. It seems that I have ruffled feathers from the local sea cadet level all the way to Ottawa.  The good thing is that her case is now part of the already in progress review to advance new entries 14 and over...

I for one wear my father's metals on my CF uniform all year round.  The day I recieved my CD he gave me his and I had it mounted instead of mine.  It is with great pride that I wear his metals.  It also helps that I have earned some of the same ones he did.  When my daughter gets her's I hope...

Wow, big words from a LS with 11 years reserve 9 reg.  Are you scared of someone taking your spot? Any of the NET jobs. If I was looking to get in at your age I would pick "Botswain" you seem well suited and should excel quickly.

This has been some really good reading as of late. Occam - you are fighting a losing battle.  I was at the east coast town hall and like the chief said, there was little objection.  From the hall talk and over a few beer later & before, a lot have objections but know that we have little say.  A...

Well Said Chief.. It took me 25 years to learn that.. and the last five regretting I didn't learn it sooner.

Thank you all for the quick responces.  I knew this was the place to get the best answers to my questions.  As it was mostly my ex-wife dealing with this problem, I don't have all the answers so I will not point fingers.  That and it was not just one person involved. I will say that NSCC...

They are the ones we have been dealing with right from the start.

I have a question I can not find the answer to.   My Daughter did 4 years in Navy League and then moved up to Naval Cadets.  In her third year she could have moved up to cadets but was convinced that it was in her best interest to do her last year in Navy League so she could become a CPO1. She...

That is such a great story.  My father was retired by the time I joined and now it looks like I will be retired by the time my daughter joins.  At least when she does it will make 4 generations in a naval uniform.

Another reason not to vote.. If no one votes then no one gets your $1.75

Skinny legs, where did you ever come up with the idea that skinny anything was perfect.  Skinny legs should ALWAYS be hidden by baggy pants.

I still think it would be great to have six weeks of vacation in the summer.
