    Semi skilled Med tech/Corporal after BMQ?

    If you are on your way to BMQ you should already be familiar with the terms of your offer.  If you don't understand, ask your recruiter and if you are not clear at that time ask to speak to your recruiters boss.  These details should be ironed out before an offer is accepted.  If you are unsure...

    Leave Policy – Annual (time off, after hours, ect...) [Merged]

    If you are going on a career course you should get 2 days on each end(not always and not an entitlement mind you).  You can request 2 short.  If you have been gone from your unit for six months, you will most likely be required to burn off some annual.  That being said, how many career courses...

    Home Purchases

    I am a little skeptical of an appraiser.  I am of the opinion that market value is determined by the market.  An appraiser will not value a 25 year old bungalow in Petwawa at 190000 but that is its market value.  The market is what it is.  This has gotten a little off topic.  I was wondering how...

    Home Purchases

    I recently bought a house in Petawawa and paid over list due to another buyer putting in an offer.  How do you know that there wasn't another offer?  We considered that maybe there wasn't another offer but I can't imagine a realtor that would risk their license over something like that.  If you...

    Helmets in Rental Vehicles on the Ranges In 1 CMBG?

    True.  If we look in Training Safety, whenever 2 policies differ you will follow the more restrictive of the two.  That being said I still think someone is misinterpreting a directive.

    Helmets in Rental Vehicles on the Ranges In 1 CMBG?

    The safety bulletin that came out in Feb from LFCA made it clear that helmets will not be worn in the front seat of SMP vehicles that are equipped with airbags(read Milcot).  It created a backlash of interpretations at many command levels, especially when it began referring to exercise movement...

    CDS Military Families Fund

    It is true what the Generals said to his wife, that nothing every happens when we are home.  My basement has flooded 3 times, my roof blew off and my driveway caved in.  I was away for all of them.

    Taliban blamed for "deadly phone virus" rumour

    Reminds me of a time at Poli Sharki ranges when one of the fellas told some locals that the US put a man on the moon.  Blasphemy!!  Near started a riot.

    I thought you couldn't decide between your toque or ball cap.  How many hats do you need?  You can't wear one on the flight line anyways.

    made a bad choice want to go home

    A normal reaction after being in the training system for the better part of 6 months with a 24/7 school environment then being shipped to a little place like Shiloh with free evenings you are not used to having.  Not being told when to eat and when to go to bed.  Well suck it up and soldier on...

    What is considered a spouse in the CF?

    Many soldiers make the long commute from Arnprior everyday.  As far as permission goes it usually isn't a problem.  That being I would send a memo up the CoC before you spend any money just to be covered.

    Express test

    Another example of someone filling out their profile correctly.  It gives some degree of credibility to posters and when used honestly will often substantiate comments made.

    YTEP

    YTEP soldiers weren't given a Basic engagement.  Their initial commitment was a year.  There was a similar program in Gagetown in the early 90s in cooperation with the NB government but not yo the same scale.  It isn't that different now with Basic being run at locations outside of St. Jean but...
