To add on to that, the Orca only requires 4 people to sail. The rest are students with their Course Training Officer. And like N. McKay said, the tugs, barges, fireboats, tenders, ect are run by the Canadian Forces Fleet Auxiliary. Not 100% sure on this, but if I remember correctly the Dive...

Didn't hear any rumbling at all but I would support a move like this. I mean no offense to the people that work on the ship, but in the modern age of computers and semi-reliable telephone communications, is there really a requirement to bring the support staff to sea? What is done on ship that...

You are right, my apologies for completely missing this. I will still stand by my submarine selection as it does have the IDAS (however I am sure we could also get a system working on the Soryu though), mine laying capability, and with more vessels for the same amount of crew we can spread out...

Just saying... You think he could track Osama Bin Laden?

I got a little info through some people... They renamed it to something like Base Security Force and slashed the operating budget. What is going on, are they recruiting guys into it, I have no idea.

As I was informed by someone, a lot of MPs have the authority to enforce the Highway Traffic Act of their province anywhere, even while in transit. One thing to note here is that not everything that you do wrong falls under the same Codes. There is the Criminal Code of Canada, Highway Traffic...

I know that Esquimalt runs one fairly regularly. You can check out the Port Operations and Emergency Services Branch DIN site to see the calendar.

As far as I know it is actual days at sea, unlike sea pay that is calculated on time posted. If it were time posted everyone in the navy would pretty much be gold by now. Most peoples first ship posting is longer then 4 year... Klink

With what CorporalMajor was saying, I also see that alot from peers, these peers tend to be the ones in the Shacks that like to have blasting music until 2 in the morning and the MPs shut them down. What alot of these people don't get is there are other people in the building who like there...

Can't remember where I heard this but don't MPs have some kind of job at embassies also?

Not a lawyer If that is in fact the exact wording then I understand that as meaning that he use a firearm in the performance of his duties in the Canadian Forces. Now issue would be, as Stacked said, why does he have such a prohibition, if he has been convicted of a crime, and since we are...

Hey, I was wondering if anyone has been to the Greenwood Club at all. Tried looking a little on the internet not a whole lot of information. How well equiped are they? Do they offer storage space? Any other information would be awesome If you have information on Shearwater's or Comox's also...

People have to understand with regards to rations. It is covering the cost a yes Food (up to your entitlement, so for supper example you are paying to get a bowl of soup, a 6" plate of from the salad bar, a main course, a desert, 3 snacks and two glasses of something to drink and a coffee. Add...
