I used to be in the Regular Forces, but left 3 years ago for the civilian world.  I attended a memorial for Remembrance Day this morning and I was wondering if I can still wear my DEUs or I've heard I can still wear my beret.  Is that true? 

I would say military experience would be considered related experience.  Whoever told you it's not is wrong.  A degree is a mandatory requirement to be an intelligence officer.  As for intelligence officers doing surveillance work...let me say the surveillants will be the experts in this area. ...

Is it true that the reserve units don't accept applications to the Intelligence Officer trade by direct entry?  I recently inquired about this with 2 Intelligence Company at the Denison Armoury in Toronto.  I was told I had to be already in a trade and then can apply for transfer to INT, is this...

:salute:  I was shocked when I heard the news.  Mark and I did basic training together.  He was a great guy.  I still remember the last time I talked to him when we ran into each other at the Coriano back in May.  He was excited about going on his first tour.  I've been hearing about the deaths...

Arming border guards is all well and good, but why it takes 10 years!! to do so is beyond me.  I would call that incompetence in management.  If the government is serious about it, then they should allocate the resources (money/training personnel...) right away, not in a few years. 

In Gatineau?  Hmm...I will check that.

Does anyone know if there are any bottle depots in Ottawa where we can return empty pop cans and bottles and get reimbursed for them?

I am in Petawawa. 

Actually they refused to clear me out if I'm not in uniform.  I told them all my kit (cadpat) has been turned in and I've already packed up my CFs and the moving company will come get the stuff this morning.  You know what the sergeant said when I told him about this...he said dig out your CFs...

But if I already got my CFs packed and ready to go, I just want to know if it's against the rules to go clear out in civvies...? 

Is there a CFAO or DAOD that states that when we clear out (for release), we have to be in uniform and not in civvies?  If we have already returned all our kit (i.e. combats), then do we have to go in CFs? 

Hmm, I guess they didn't do it here...at least in my building!  >:(

It's Census Day and the online website where we can fill out the form is down!  >:(

Yes, I believe that's the number I called...1-877-594-2006.  I live in the shacks in Petawawa, but I never got the forms distributed to my quarters and I did not get an email saying they will follow up and visit those who did not fill out the forms. 

I never got the census forms in the mail and I called Census Canada and they told me that I don't need it because the base has all my records and will send them my info.  Does anyone know if that's true? 

Oui, il faut que tu ecrives une notice biographique la première semaine de ton cours.  C'est seulement une page et tu peux écrire de ton education, la raison de joindre l'armée, ta famille...

On court et marche avec le rucksack...tu peux obtenir plus d'information à http://www.cflrs.forces.gc.ca/site/accueil/index_f.asp

Yes, I am a supply tech, but I don't work at Clothing...I was packing my kit and I just thought I would pose the question here to get a quicker reply.  I did go and ask about it at Clothing store the following Monday. 

When we get released, do we have to return the gabardine, CF sweater, CF raincoat and gloves (Parade)?

23000 recruits over 5 years?  I find that hard to believe.  With the recruitment processing taking so long, I doubt they can process that many people.  Funding might solve some problems, but not all and I don't think it's going to make the processing much faster.
