Plot twist: How long does everyone think it'll take Logistik Unicorp to find another courier provider? Back story: I have had a couple students approach me about getting replacement items for Remembrance Day, thinking that they would have time to get the replacements and then have them...

I distinctly remember being on PAT platoon at CFNES over some random holiday (maybe March Break) where the classes were not running, and we were mustered in the morning, those of us with taskings were sent on our way (I think it was one random dude working for the BCPOs office, TBH), and the...

But where does the SSI and morale patches go on this uniform???

And now the CAF is in a procurement slump. I went to PLQ a few years ago, and had to fight for everything on my kit list. I even had to go to multiple clothing stores because they didn't have everything in one location for me. "Infantry before" does not equal "CAF standards now". "You get...

I also recommend showering before you go to bed, because you will screw your platoon over if you are showering in the mornings before inspection. Showering before bed also allows your body to relax and comfortable when you go to sleep, at least in my experience. Please, for the love of your...

It's usually where I put my iPhone on Remembrance Day. And the key fob for my car, because (believe it or not) there is a little pocket for a pocket watch on the Navy tunic that fits my KIA fob perfectly. That way, I don't have any weird bulges on my thighs, and I have the bare minimum that I...

Here's my certified, never-fail, packlist for whenever I am going on ANY course for the military: - Item # 1: The packlist guide that is provided in your joining instructions that tells you what you can and can't bring :LOL: OK, Now I'll get serious: - For your civilian clothing, bring...

Naval Fleet School in Halifax just had their medal ceremony today for it. Looks like they are rolling them out now. The numbers they said for who was being awarded it though were around 4000 military and only 90 public service employees. That doesn't exactly seem fair, unless they were...

Gonna echo what everyone else is saying here, and add this... Do you know what you call someone who graduated at the bottom of their class at medical school? Doctor. The staff at CFLRS isn't looking to fail you; they are looking to see if you learn from your mistakes. No one, and I mean NO...

So... I'm sorry if this sounds insensitive, as it is not my intention, but aren't personnel posted to a training facility (like NFS(A), as an example) for a RQS3 course that lasts almost a year on RESTRICTED posting status? Meaning they have to live in barracks, on base (unless they have...

So, I have a few points, and I can sympathize having dealt with things of this nature both at the barracks and the apartment PMQ levels. 1. Reporting or pointing out that people are being little shits in shacks isn't "snitching" or "ratting" them out, unless you provide names. If you want to...

It may be important to everyone speculating here that this particular Walmart has been under renovations for quite some time now. There have been areas of the store cordonned off for repairs / upgrades, and the rest of the store was usually busy as all hell, based on the central location of the...

Had a great group of BMQ instructors when I went through, but my WO was a bit uncouth in his attitude towards people who joined from the PAT platoon, because he thought they were lazy, and came across as pompous towards the anglos on course (it was an english BMQ course, and there were more than...

Same topic, different province. Ontario is recommending the same pin. Here's the link to the other thread: https://navy.ca/forums/threads/ontario-leg-passes-motion-for-lieutenant-governor%E2%80%99s-military-service-pin.117264/

That was Disney trying to save a buck.

Thanks for the link. I'll check that out. Just another example of "the quality outweighs the compensation"

I bought this for when I'm working in no-cell-phone zones. Inexpensive, and works great. and got it on 2-day delivery from Amazon. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08XYC9FYM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

The second possibility being Morgan Freeman? I am personally impressed that, even though Darth Vader was such a high-profile role, he seemed to be ok with only being paid a pittance, comparatively speaking, to what the role was worth. I mean, he didn't even take credit for the voice work in...

So, in reading the email content you have provided, at the time you had your medical interview there were issues that the medical officer had with your file, condition, background, etc. that would mean that unfortunately, you do not meet the medical standards for the universality of service...

^^ THIS ^^ When I enrolled, I had found out that I had a suspended licenence in Ontario on file (apparently, it had been suspended AFTER I moved to Quebec and switched my licence over, but never got any information on it in the 7+ years after it was "suspended"). When they did my background...
