My Member of Parliament is (the late Minister of National Defence) Gordon O'Connor.  Would I be remiss in calling him up, and or writing his office a brief letter?

Before this thread dies, I wanted to ask if there was a way to re-instate the traditional rank system for the Army Mess Dress.  If this is allowed for the Navy (with the executive curl) in Mess Dress, should the Army not be allowed to retain their traditional pip system for the officers?  I know...

0, 8 and 1 is my record. I bought a friend a coffee today and his cup won.  He tried to press it on me, but I insisted that he'd earned it through a successful rim-rolling technique.  One of these days I'll win something.  I think at this rate I'll have paid for the SUV before I win it.

You're CTing via ROTP?  Please brush up on your grammar and spelling before accepting any offers, for the CF's sake.

Vern, just because you're the supply goddess, and you've weighed in on this thread, and I believe (/hope) this is relevant enough, here goes... I'm currently PRes.  I'm going to be working a summer tasking (of some sort), and then sign my RegF contract as a CivvyU ROTP bloke in August.  I'm...

Well, several others have compared this to the Volunteer Service Medal of WWII reknown. I've heard veterans at my local legion refer to them as EBGMs (Every Bastard Got one Medal), and I've got my grandfather's at home, (along with his campaign stars, mounted, and behind glass) - but I don't...

That strikes me as a pretty poor reason to only recognize people who released....

Why exactly would this be only for people who have released - thats the only thing I don't understand about it, to be honest.

I'm trying to make this happen through my CoC but I'm skeptical as to whether they'll do anything about it.  Any chance one of you might know who I should get into contact with at CG?  Feel free to PM.

Hey all, I've heard that CG is open to all MOCs this year.  I've applied for a position through my unit's Operations WO, and am waiting out. Can anyone confirm/deny whether there are not a plethora of empty positions?  I've heard that in recent years they've been dying for rank and file types...

Wow, congrats dwalter! PM Inbound!

So who here wants to staff this up, and who can accidentally "drop" this on the CDS' desk?  ;D

Just because I'm new... how does one get a tour to be only 33 days?  Are tours shorter than the generic 6 months for more senior types?

As long as those are the only "bombs" they find in your kit, you'll likely be okay.  I'm pretty sure cigarettes are allowed (ha... since it seems like a ton of the people I've met in the CF smoke)!

There you have it!

I only support this if we can somehow swing a Field Operational Time pin/medal/neck-badge to go along with the CAB. :-[

Just got the word I won't be doing BMOQ with you fine folks.  None of the ROTP candidates this year are getting slated for BMOQs (sadly).  Looks like one last PRes tasking for me....

Yep - I've sent him to that group before, he didn't appreciate it :crybaby:

If you're talking about someone from campus (UofG), I had POLS*2200 with that guy.  I actually thought he looked more of the DnD type, not the DND type. I have a friend on campus here who is a Cpl in an "un-named Toronto scottish infantry unit", and I don't think I've seen him on campus without...

I know that a board sits to address issues in CFP-265, but how would one go about proposing changes?
