    Iraq Unravels

    oh yeah, real stabilized, but in the wrong direction for the US, take a look at a handful of news articles beginning to surface. Who would've guessed Iraq wouldn't react positively to this?  ::)...

    Iraq Unravels

    Sir, with all due respect, how do you think this is going to be portrayed in the region and on the international stage? The United States just assassinated a high ranking military official of sovereign country "A" during a visit to sovereign country "B" at the behest of country "B"'s...

    Iraq Unravels

    100% spot on. It's insane how much Trump has single-handedly eroded US soft power and diplomatic prowess on the global stage during his tenure as POTUS. I'm terrified of the prospects of Trump getting a second term.

    Iraq Unravels

    The assassination of Soleimani and Al-Muhandis was reckless and to be frank, stupid. There are going to be severe long term ramifications for this.

    British Army Documentary - The Falklands War: The Land Battle

    Nice, have you seen Mark Felton's work on this topic? He has some entertaining anecdotal tidbits from that conflict that would compliment the links you posted nicely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLrT8mtE8So&list=PLx2GRxi-rDiFhLTCxG66qNcrGlVc0XGQc

    Ontario benefits for veterans.

    Seems silly to me. Either give the vets free admission or don't. Don't attach stipulations to it. As a Canadian who is NOT a vet, I have no qualms with paying extra to fill the revenue gap.

    Ontario benefits for veterans.

    Maybe I'm missing something, but I genuinely wonder why they decided to exclude weekends?

    Hmm.... how suspicious that you knew that.. You know what, I'm beginning to think that owl timer is just G2G's dummy account - he's playing both sides.  :o

    Okay good, so I'm not the only one who thought this. When the OP first posted, I was convinced it was a troll so I figured I'd let someone else jump on this metaphoric grenade.  :rofl: Guys, c'mon, this is clearly someone trolling the forums.

    Advice appreciated - Is this normal or am I screwed? (DEO)

    Congrats Lid! I'm glad to hear your persistence paid off  ;D. I took everyone's advice here on the forum and I already called my CFRC. I'm going to go ahead and just rewrite the CFAT in the new year regardless of what the new cut off will be. My logic is that this was a blessing in disguise...

    Thanks for the kind words overwatch. Let me know when you get the offer call, I’m sure it’ll be within the near future! ;)

    Congrats, I wish you the best of luck. What I do know is that there are 5 spots left for this year. That’s what the file manager told me when he had to break the news.

    Advice appreciated - Is this normal or am I screwed? (DEO)

    No clue, Overwatch. I never actually got debriefed on my score. The recruiter just sat me down and listed all the trades I qualified for. The only ones I noticed were missing from all the options to someone with my educational background were Pilot & Intel O. If I were to guess a lowball...

    CFAT Rewrite

    I know this doesn't directly answer your question, but perhaps Spc_cdt's post (3rd from the top on page 35) can shed some light on what you're asking. https://army.ca/forums/threads/37070.850.html

    CFAT Rewrite

    That's a fair point winds_13, if everyone is allowed to rewrite the CFAT for a second time, then it's a level playing field in my opinion. Also, I completely agree with you on your second point directed towards me. I genuinely misinterpreted your initial reply to me last week. I assumed that it...

    CFAT Rewrite

    I too am not an expert, but I do agree with your sentiment. In my opinion, it's best to avoid creating this scenario in the first place. I feel like the CFAT should be a static bar where you either get a high enough score to pass or fail for the trade you want, and that's that. Especially for...

    Advice appreciated - Is this normal or am I screwed? (DEO)

    Thanks for your advice and suggestions. I think I will go ahead and do just that and rewrite my CFAT in the new year if I still don't meet the threshold. In hindsight, I should be happy that the weak point in my application is my CFAT. Relative to the other components of the application such the...

    Thanks for the advice and words of encouragement, ssrb. I’m glad to hear your persistence paid off. Yeah I’m going to see if I can redo the CFAT if my score is still too low in the new year. You’re right about how hard the training is in Cornwall. I made friends with an AEC in training who is...
