    NDHQ absorbs all the defense budget.

    I guess that would have to depend on the position.  Not all jobs at NDHQ are military positions or functions.  Don't forget, the military does not operate in a vaccuum nor is it autonomous.  Foreign policy is set by civilians, not the military.  The military's job is to execute that policy.  The...

    Does anyone have any information on the dates for this summer's CAP serials in Gagetown?   Additionally, have there been any changes to the structure of the course?   From what I have been told it changes from year to year.   Cheers.

    Int Op or Int Officer

    "You cant beat the program, a relatively free eduction, while maintaining your current pay.   If you are a Mcpl or above you will graduate university and be commissioned as a Lt.   No big deal for Cpls, as you are promoted to Lt one year after commissioning (as long as you've completed Ph IV).  ...
