    The army08 Medical Mega Trauma Thread

    Very true DAA, it will go ahead if I can find a doctor to screen my medical. Here is a good offshoot question though Is the CFO medical requirements any different than the CF medical requirements, that is to restate, is it easier to pass a firearms possession clearance, or a Canadian Forces...

    The army08 Medical Mega Trauma Thread

    PuckChaser - I'm here because this is where I ended up. None the less, I think I'd be great for the CF. It is only a question of how many other great people are out there. Seriously though. I'm actually very well qualified in my previous training and experience, and education and personal...

    The army08 Medical Mega Trauma Thread

    I'm being honest. I had a crisis situation about 10 years ago and the doctor had a personal vendetta and misdiagnosed, cool story, huh? None the less I really pissed off the wrong people, none the less, I soon after got a second opinion and it eventually sorted out as "does not support original...

    The army08 Medical Mega Trauma Thread

    So, I've loosely been following the CF and it seems that budgets are being chopped, with lots going into equipment acquisition. There is roll down in Afghanistan with no publically disclosed operations on land, thus more applicable to the army side of joint forces. Personally I applied for the...

    Questions and lack of confidence? - Foreigner to become a Pilot

    Just in response to the opening post, just a bit of humour here... if you want to be Canadian do it if you can get in, its not like the US or France where you can fight for them and get citizenship as a byproduct that stopped with the first nations. US took latinos not sure if maltese applies...

    RECENTLY TOOK THE CFAT

    Math is an artform, there are lots of potential ways to solve solutions, some more direct or systematic than others. Obviously BEDMAS and Ratios are fairly standard, and I think from most of the practice questions I've seen, most of the math is dealt with under GED level,  highschool math, no...

    Question about Reserve Mobilization during Parliamentary Recesses

    Thanks for that clarification. I should have stated CIC. I didn't realize they were Primary though, I thought they had a class of their own, and were treated as a seperate group - as most literature makes a special note of them along side the rangers, and suplimentary.

    Question about Reserve Mobilization during Parliamentary Recesses

    Hey this isn't me saying you are wrong but when I read 32. Whenever the Governor in Council places the Canadian Forces or any component or unit thereof on active service, if Parliament is then separated by an adjournment or prorogation that will not expire within ten days, a proclamation shall...

    What'll CAN Coalition Mean for AFG Mission?

    Meshing the different platforms together this is what you get. United Nations Mission  by 2011 or Canada Withdrawls. The UN needs to insure that Afghans work, and women and human rights groups get aid.

    Question about Reserve Mobilization during Parliamentary Recesses

    I was just currious in the case of the reserve, without parliament in session, can the reserve still be mobilized? Is only the Govenor General or Queen able to do this, in mind of a lawful order from Parliament for mobilization? Just currious as this happens I suppose during elections etc.. how...

    Underage Drinking Fears (Merged)

    Drinking by minors under adult supervision is permitted in licensed premises in the provinces of Manitoba and New Brunswick and at home in Prince Edward Island, Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Sask. So it isn't "illegal" at base. Of course someone who is 19 or 20 buying the booze or...

    MERX WATCH: Adding to Gagetown's Urban Operations Village

    Althoug totally off base, is there a reason engineers and others can't do this during their time at gagetown, what is the reason for needing to outsource the work? Interesting resource though.

    The Optimal Battle Group vs. the Affiliated Battle Group

    It wasn't an argument which may be why you don't see the argument. It was opinion, and coming from a self made armchair junkie, not someone with actual real life strategic command experience, so it is geuss work, it just seems the logical end. The point really was there are two key elements of...

    The Optimal Battle Group vs. the Affiliated Battle Group

    To reiterate the comment it is very simple: For logistics purposes, use miminalized supply need groupings, when domestic (in canada on operation specific bases - ect. a CFB airbase would be best supplied along airforce logistics with minimal carry over for non airforce supply needs) If you base...

    The Optimal Battle Group vs. the Affiliated Battle Group

    I think organization depends on "mission requiremnts" and the extent. You can see the forces as a "total force" and potential capacity. Contigency and operandii are then weighted in to determine force composition requirements for successful mission acheivement. The brigade deployment level or...
