I am getting married in a year or two and my finacée and I were interested in possibly doing it at a local military establishment.  I am a reg force member currently in Ottawa.  She is from Guelph so that's where we'd like to do it near. I was told they would have no problem renting it out at...

Good Evening, I am fairly new to military administration so I am having a bit of difficulty working through this one.  For obvious privacy reasons I can't give much detail.  I have searched this topic using the wonderful search engine on this forum (which rivals that of the DWAN) but found...

I have been looking for an answer for this and Google and the forum search engines do not turn up an answer. Are we in the Canadian Forces required to salute an officer of a foreign military that is higher ranked than ourselves?  And vice-versa, are Americans required to salute Canadian...

Currently I am working on my history OPME paper and all I have left is the final paper to write.  The question I am choosing to go with (as it seems the lesser of all evils) is:  "After the Second World War, the Canadian military was less committed to defence of the realm than acting as an...

Good Day, I am currently living in Ottawa and I am 6' 3" with a waist of 36".  I have an air force mess kit but it is a few inches too short on me so I am looking to sell it. It comes with suspenders, and LCol ranks. If you are interested feel free to try it on before buying.  Message me...

I am writing a brief on the engima machine and I am able to find a bunch of general information on how it works, the history etc etc What I am lacking on information is, where the Canadians at all involved with Enigma?  I know there was the "Ultra" Project running out of Britain with very few...

Good Afternoon, I am trying to find some information on Brigadeer J.E. Genet, more specifically bio and achievements. There aren't many sources on him on the internet, rcsigs.ca has very little and the C&E 90 Years and Counting only says he was the Chief Sigs Officer in WW2 as well as he died...

Good Day, I am currently on course at CFB Kingston for the summer.  I am 6' 3" with a waist of 36".  I have an air force mess kit but it is too short on me so I am looking to sell it. If you are interested feel free to try it on before buying.  Message me here or PM me and I will give you...

Firstly I want to start this post by saying I've already searched on google on the search for this forum for my answers.  Either my search skills failed me horrible or the answer is not out there. I am interested in the Post-Grad Training Program as I am just starting my fourth year at a...

So, I am currently finishing my third year at a civilian university out here in British Columbia and yes I have been in the ROTP program for three years now too.  While attending university I decided to try out for the rowing team as a novice rower as a way to keep in shape.  Three years later I...

Hey there, I am in ROTP and this is my first semester and I am in Civilian University.  As finals approach I keep wondering this question. This isn't quiet the situation I am in with one of my classes. So basically, what happens if you are in a class and you try as hard as you can.  You do all...

Hey there, I am new to the CF, having just been sworn in two months ago through the ROTP program.  I am currently a CELE and all the information that I can find about them was on that one page on the DND site.  I was wondering where else could I find information on CELEs, I do not even know my...

I was told that after university and until I go to training I would be put on EWOT.  I know it is just employment until I go to training.  Now what kinds of stuff would I be doing?  I have yet to go to IAP and I do not even have any of my regs.  Also, am I able to use some of my leave while on...

I was just curious if there are still CFBs in Europe?  Outside of Canada (and Afghanistan) are there any CFBs elsewhere in the world?  Thank you.

Hey There, I am not sure if this is where this is supposed to go.  I am an OCdt at the moment in the CF as I was selected from the ROTP program this year.  I was supposed to go to IAP this summer but  I got deferred tell next summer.  If I were to go this summer I would have not been in the best...

Hey There, I was accepted into the RoTP and have been sworn in.  I will be a CELE and I will be going to a civilian university to study Computer Sciences, at Simon Fraser University here in BC.  My question is, as I have not been told, how does the CF pay for our tutition, books, instruments etc...

Well, I am from British Columbia and I applied for RoTP back in November, first choice being Pilot, 3rd choice being CELE.  I went to CFB Trenton last week for Aircrew Selection and I managed to pass.  So here I am thinking, "yay, I passed, I will be a pilot."  However, when I returned home, I...

Why is RMC a college and not a university?

Well, it is that time of year and I am going to be applying to get into RMC/RoTP as either a PLT, AERE, or CELE.  I was wondering how good my chance to get in is, what I can do to make it better etc.  Currently I have: Average in Grade 10: 85% Average in Grade 11: 89% Been in 10 math contests...
