Yeah, ah no.  ??? Yeahhhhhhh, NOT!  ::)

He/she needs to accept responsibility for his/her action of not reporting the loss of the ID Card. CFAO 26-3 Identification Cards states: LOSS, THEFT OR DAMAGE29.     When a form CAFIB 20 or 22 is lost, stolen or damaged:     a.    the loss, theft or damage shall be reported by the member...

I suggest "The Last Hundred Yards- The NCO's Contribution to Warefare" by H.J. Poole. It is a very all encompassing book.  ISBN 0-9638695-2-3 As a note, I normally do a search on ebay for any books I am interested in and usually get them at quite a reduction.  :salute:

The situation could be rectified by proper supervision by the NCO Chain of Command. The Sgts need to be on the floor supervising their subordinates. I know the response will be well I'm up to my neck in paper and tied to the computer. Well break away and see how your Soldiers are treating those...

I feel we need to seriously discuss the role of the Nayla on Operations. Many people feel that this vehicle is indestructible and can be used for anything. I think Engineers at all levels need to be informed of its capabilities and limitations and be able to advise Commanders on them. Once...

I think waiting that long is unacceptable. To accept it as part of the system makes the total system weaker. My recommendation is that you contact the Labour Relations Board in you province and state your case through them. Good luck.

I did a quick search on ebay and found 56 compasses under "silva Compass." Prices range from $5 to $50. I hope this helps. I prefer the silva myself.  :salute:

IMHO, I believe that all Soldiers should have to join as one of the Combat Arms trades. This would give the Army a deeper pool to draw from and give experience to all support trades. After the BE, the Soldier would then be given an opportunity for remuster. I am sure many would enjoy the...

I think that unarmed combat should be part of each units PT program. Of course this would take a huge cultural change in many of the units. I think it should be introduced at basic and continued through each level of training. This training would be reinforced at the unit level through...

Roger that..One Army, One Team, One Vision. Makes me wonder why we still insist on calling it Land Force I still think we need something catchier and more appropriate. Ideas?

I went to our recruiting site on DND.CA and could not see and obvious recruiting slogan. The American Army one is well know...Army of One. What is our present slogan? :-\ And what do you suggest for a more catchy recruiting slogan? (Remember it has to encompass the whole CF and not just the...

IMHO, the biggest delay in response to the crisis is the multilaying of governments in the US. If you think back to the Red River flood in 1996, things were not much better, save the loss of life and devastation of the cities. Confusion reigned supreme in the initial stages until the governments...

Actually, I can think of many examples where NNCOand Officers have issued illegal orders. The Nazi war crimes, genocides in Bosnia, and aallowing subordinatesto torture prisioners are all illegal acts. Too often, the response from the subordinate is ' I was only following orders." Having stated...

I didn't realize the Mark Pennie got out. You are absolutely right Sapper6, it is the Engineers' loss. I am sure he is using his time productively on civilian street.  :salute:

"Canada should abandon the Victoria Cross and create its own elite military award, according to one retired general. The medal is needed now that the last living recipient of the Victoria Cross -- Ernest "Smokey" Smith -- has passed away, says Pierre Senecal, a retired brigadier-general from...

All orders, to be lawful, must be morally, legally and ethically proper. :cdn:

Meritorious Service Medal (military division) CHIEF WARRANT OFFICER DONALD GERALD FOX, M.S.M., C.D. Kingston, Ontario and Burton, New Brunswick CWO Fox, then MWO, has provided exceptional service in the field of mine awareness training. His detailed reference materials and training packages...

I think it was Field Marshal Waverly that said " There is a Field Marshal's baton in every soldiers pack." Simply stated, if you have the potential and ability to excel you will. My advice to you, don't worry about becoming the CDS at this point in your career. You should pick a trade that you...

Do I have to pen amend the 10 Principles of Leadership that I have hanging in my office now or will they issue a new one? Frankly, I find the 12 principles wordy and lacking the basics of military writing, those being: accuracy, brevity and clarity. Of course, what do I know, I'm not a...

Sam, I am sure FTSO is quite capable to speak for himself/herself. I was not asking for a verbatim transcript just the salient points. Obviously, if it can be viewed by all that have DWAN access, it is unclassified. :salute: I thought the point of this forum was foster an open exchange of...
