    Does everyone in CF has head piece to communicate ?

    I don't know how impaired your hearing is, but your standard TCCCS radio headset does go pretty loud. Are you able to function within society unhindered on a daily basis? If so, you shouldn't have any problems.

    Wearing of "team/roto" patches overseas.

    I've submitted an memo up my chain to allow members of my unit going over on roto to design and wear a "team/roto" patch on our arid combats overseas. Everyone up to my troop commander loves the idea, however they want "prior art" of this being acceptable before taking it to the CO... Have...

    Marksman/Distinguished Marksman badge on DEUs wearing/regulations

    Thanks Vern, I was aware of the yearly nature, qualification at the range etc, but that's excellent clarification on the "take down" policy . I think I'll make a visit to the base library, maybe they have those docs. Of course, I wear glasses now so this may all be mute if it's affected my...

    Marksman/Distinguished Marksman badge on DEUs wearing/regulations

    Looking for the regs that govern when you are entitled to wear this badge / as well as the paperwork req'd to put it up. Used to have this qual years ago before I switched trades, now with a new unit and despite my digging no one seems to know what the policy is.

    Trade Specific Occupation Badge for LCIS

    I think that looks outstanding, great job. No reason why we 291'ers have to be the only ones with specific badges - heck each trade ideally should get their own. Cudos to you for taking the initiative.

    Lease issue...

    I can only comment on the particular situation of the married fellows/gals I went through trades training w/ a few years ago in Kingston. Their spouses were able to join them ie "posted" once they started their trades training, so after basic, sq and any time spent in the holding unit in Borden...

    next 291 course

    Sorry Radop but respectfully, I'm afraid your information is incorrect. Nate; Assuming you currently have employment, I would inquire at the recruiting cell about not mustering in until about a month before your course, as otherwise you'll be sent to PRETC (holding platoon) in Borden, and...

    Some questions about the 291

    a)Ref the PMQ, in Kingston they are a complete waste of money, I could elaborate but i'll just point you here; http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/28895/post-7882 Assuming you are common-law, then I would go for the seperation pay, or buying a house instead. b)Regarding your security...

    CFS Leitrim Question

    I was actually into the Self Help office today to speak to the IC there "Mr.Cohn". Unfortunately he is out for two weeks, but I did have a polite conversation w/ the receptionist. As a single member, I've done my homework. Self Help is a civilian organisation, not a part of PSP or any govn't...

    CFS Leitrim Question

    Current policy is single members can move into "self help" during the moving off season (usually 01 Oct - 31 Mar). During the posting season single members are SOL for uplands. Last course to arrive Sep 05 had a large number of pers turned away because of their single status, and had to...
