Regarding what Gate Guard is referring to, the quality of the "recruit" is not lacking nor is there any lacking in numbers of persons applying for the positions. What we find is what Blackhorse 7 notes is the "civilianization" of the Policing world. We have recruits who are not drawn to the...
My understanding is that the RCMP were looking at opening the training facility that they had purchased from the CF at Chilliwack as a 2nd training Depot to ensure that they could train the anticipated numbers once they received the official go ahead from Ottawa. Secondly, it's not just the...
Sgt Clive Milligan of the Vancouver Police departments' Force Options unit presently teaches the verbal Judo during our team training days. It's not too bad but overall it's just common sense on dealing with people.
Don't sweat the polygraph just be honest. In regards to the POPAT an earlier message said the hurdles aren't in the run, however they are. They are located just after you come back down the steps there are two hurdles spaced so you can't clear them both in one leap. They are placed there to...
I'm very surprised that with all of the quoting that Armymatters writes that he hasn't listed any Russian aircraft to replace the F-18's. I'm sure he can dig up some wonderful quotes regarding the SU-27 airframe. It looks like the Chinese and Indian Airforces love them. It surely has the range...

As PBI has noted he believes there may be a problem with rising up through the ranks, however he leaves the RCMP out of the equation. As an organization with over 20,000 members in uniform you can't exclude the force. The concept of promoting from within also works for them as it has done for...
I grew up in Cold Lake as a base brat and often heard the howl of the big J-79 as it would hurddle itself through the air. The engine would howl as the pilot would throttle back on his base-leg getting lined up for final.
The up through the rank system works for those of us in the Police world. It allows the officer to relate to the troops easier as he has already gone through some of the same experiences.
We have the polygraph here in the Vancouver Police Dept. It works, as it merely is utilized as a tool to reinforce to concept of truthfullness. The Dept knows that everyone has done some things that are better left tucked away. All they are looking for is to see if you are a decietful...
