Nothing new in there, CISTM is being canned. Spec pay info coming soon (Trademark, 2011)

I would think if they screwed up the investigation so bad they didn't want to proceed to summary trial then the chances of it passing at court martial is slim to none (if they don't quash it before trial).

Buds, a tea kettle uses 1100W, so plugging into the convience outlets is only giving your CP ~1800W. Now I'm just a simple operator with 16 years of experience, but last I checked 5000W is a lot better than 1800W when you're running a CP.

It's a lot more than a power bar. Running a "power bar" from the convience outlets gives you 120v 15A. Taking the power from the leads (which is what the connector for the power distribution system does) gives you more of the output of the generator. If you didn't know this then you've probably...

Yeah, anything, old facebook posts printed out, emails talking about the move, text messages, photos. You're just expected to establish a reasonable likelihood that she was living with you. This isn't a murder trial. That's if the stat dec is not enough, which it should be since we use stat...

1) Not always, but the norm is for a 5-10 KW trailer mounted TQG to be the power source 2) Absolutely can. I've seem some dets that prefer to use a 5KW civilian style generator For a short time yes. It's not something you want to depend on as the truck is not designed to run at idle...

When you consider the range of punishment 129 is a fairly serious charge, though I think the issue in this case is that it's often used in more trivial circumstances.

That's been her experience in Civ staffing. I'm not an expert so I differ to her. The other implication has been if you retire healthy you are doing it wrong.

Wife is public service with HR staffing. A med release from the military puts you on the highest priority list for public service jobs. I'm not sure if being a reservist affects that, but I suspect you're still good. Without asking where you live, if there is a sizable federal government...

I'm certainly no expert on medical things, but that sounds like a test that wouldn't be routine and more often then not is the follow on test to a high blood glucose result on your standard fasting blood test?

I'd be surprised they assign a TCAT based on one test. Do you think it may be due to a mistake fasting (chocolate cake and a large double double in the car on the way to the MIR?) Seems like this would be something they'd run a second test to confirm that there's no error on the test...

I agree 90% of what you said. I still think that Core should be handling the help desk. My issue is the lack of ISTs. I could use 2 more ISTs for every 1 we get. Can IST do help desk roles? Yes. Can a Core do 95% or more of the work in a help desk? Yes. For everything else, there's 2nd line...

All the forms are exactly the same (long form application, not the shorter renewal forms) as the blue passport. Submit through your OR who will arrange to get it to Official Passports which is at the Passport Canada office in Gatineau. If your higher HQ has a deployments cell then they'll have...

They are functionally seperate trades. Yes all of them should know how to use a radio or load crypto, but that's no different from the infantry communicator's course. The roles and responsibilties need to be better divided (ie, Switches/Routers need to be assigned (IMO, to the ISTs), Help Desk...

I also think splitting the sub-occs back into trades will salvage the good that came of ACISS while solving some of the bad.

Yes, I agree with basically everything you've said. The second the trade change hit everyone started pretending that Core pers were retarded and should be relegated to doing radio checks and setting up mod, which is BS. They're some of the same people that designed and built the networks...

There's alot of promotions happening in IST this year. With CISTM being canned, IST has no solution other than promoting since it's the only trade that didn't have SNCOs before (CST having LCIS, LST having line and Core having Sig Op). The next few years there will continue to be alot of...

Not sold on the utility of IST? IST is the one good thing that came out of the whole trade smauzzle. Having one concentrated trade to do all the server and networking is a great thing, and frankly, is where the focus for signals is gravitating to. This whole "IT" thing seems to be more than a...

Do you have a plan if your posting message comes out as another base after you've already purchased this house? Never underestimate the army's ability to screw you.

From what I can see the sub occs are falling into general roles. The Tacrad world is quickly falling out of favor instead of computers computers computers. ACISS-Core seems to be filling mostly the 1st line help desk, CP work and setting up sat comm. ACISS-LST is doing what Linemen always did...
