PEI has historically had a very good turn out for Remembrance Day with lots of Poppies to be seen everywhere as well. Its good to hear this is still the norm. I usually try to go to Charlottetown for it but for the last three years have either been deployed or working. I dont know about now but...

Yes, it may be ghoulish or even a little like vultures circling a dying animal but it is something I am sure everyone expected. I am also sure it will be something used by the "Get our troops out" crowd as a tool for furthering their agenda too.

The THREAD is almost 5 years old!

I am trying to figure out what was the OPSEC violation was. All the info mentioned was in the articles as far as I can see. If anyone had mentioned specifics them maybe there would have been a problem. If flight times, departure locations and the specifics on what and who was being sent then I...

No OPSEC violations in any of the posts. Any of that info can be construed from the two articles posted in the below links. http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2008/09/10/dart-haiti.html http://www.canada.com/topics/news/story.html?id=b4ec7565-f422-4298-9348-ed71e9ed34e4

Inside the VC and the NVA. Not as interesting as it sounds.

The person in question here is indeed a Capt(N).

"I wasn't AWOL, I was just late."

The punishment here does not even come close to fitting the crime. The whole thing is an insult to those little boys and a miscarriage of justice.

Philltaj , had you put all of the info from your first and second post together in one comment then it would have made much more sense and would have gotten your point across in a much better way.

To make a statement like this without backing it up with hard facts is just as bad as sensationalizing a story in the media. To make a statement like this on this forum without backing it up is just stupid.

This guy makes me sick. I would love to have a few minutes in a closed room with him.

Some people will have to realize that being in the CF does not get you any special treatment at an airport. My trade creates the need to travel to many different places throughout the globe. I have been searched by every security counter I have gone through regardless if I was on the crew list...

There are far too many variables to be considered for anyone on this board to say that you may or may not be deployed.

MCG, I am not 100% certain on the answer to your question on exemption for the course. The course covers the History and role of the Air Force, sentence structure, punctuation and Grammar, Briefings and Human behavior, Selection boards, Air Reserve Management and a few other lessons. There is a...

Anyone who falls under the umbrella of the Air Force (regardless of uniform colour) is required to complete the PAEQ. I just finished one this week and for now I wear a green uniform. Yes it is a pain but it is not difficult to complete.
