My question is that how many times does one need to assert that one works with the Naval Forces of Canada? Let us see the jacket. There is the anchor on the name tape, NAVY / MARINE tape with maple leaf in the middle, Naval Ensign (which design includes the Canadian flag) on the shoulder...
I am a CV in my son's Corps and through the CO I am in the process of enrolling as CIC. Once the process is done, I assume I would be commissioned as NCdt. Not that I am enrolling for the money, but what kind of pay and benefits can I expect as a CIC?
This statement is based on of the lies Quebec separatists tell themselves, and now they believe it as true. Quebec separatists believe that it is official that Quebec is a nation. However, what happened was that the House issued a motion (which is not legally binding) that "This House recognize...
A bit off topic question.
If the RCAF does not have its own ground troops, who provides terminal attack control to a typical Army unit in a CAS situation?
Apologies. As I explained in the other thread, I am much more learned on the matters of U.S. Military than Canadian, for a number of reasons.
Thank you for the answer.
Out of curiosity, why does the article mention BGen Carignan as a 'one-star' general? Is this not a case of Americanization? In the Canadian Army, the stars indicate junior and senior officers (except Majors), I believe.
Should she not be 'one-maple-leaf general'?
Before continuing, pardon my lack of knowledge about Canadian Forces compared to the U.S. Military.
I imagine that ROTP in civilian universities is comparable to ROTC and RMCC is comparable to the service academies. In the ROTC, cadets or midshipmen are attached to their ROTC units which are...
Pardon to reactivate an old thread, but I am curious:
So I take it that the CF does not have ground units equivalent of RAF Regiment or USAF Security Forces? That is, units tasked for force protection of air assets and base defense.
If that is the case, how is base defense done daily in...
For an ROTP student at a civilian university, does he need to do drill somewhere on regular basis, or is his military commitment limited only for the summer time when he has to do training?
Can you please expound on this VIE? Does this mean that after 4 years at the College and 5 years Obligatory Service an Officer still needs to serve in the Forces for another 3 or 4 years?
I understand that those studying and graduating from RMC will have to serve for 5 years / 60 months ((2*4*9)-(4*3)) after graduation. What about applicants from Quebec? Since secondary education in Quebec is only 5 years, applicants need to spend one or two years at CMR St-Jean before continuing...
Hello,
Long time lurker, first post. I have question about the Army's capabilities.
From what I understand about how the Canadian Forces is organized, Canadian military can not have some kind of Marine or Naval Infantry forces (Marine as in Marine Corps, not Navy en français). Everything...
