    Maybe we should have one trade that operates the equipment. Call them, operators of signals equipment. Another trade that does structured wiring, or line. Call it, wire /line people.  And maybe a third trade that fixes stuff and does networks. Like communication and information systems for the...

    Canadian Special Operations Regiment (CSOR)

    Nice try. Not a single line in your post is based on fact. Multicam was chosen after user trials.  An open and competitive procurement was initiated for a vendor to produce MC uniforms with specific design characteristics based on user requirements and feedback.

    CRA 60

    He was past our CRA 55 when he was brought back.  The loophole being he was enrolled as a CIC officer ( at age 57) , and their CRA was 60 at the time. A few CIC officers I know bring up the fact that it is entirely possible ( and has been done ) for a CIC officer to command the CAF, so we...

    Retro Pay & Allow 1Apr 2014 - 1Apr 2017

    The entire MOS was "temporarily " assigned the standard pay group in Oct 2011, until a pay review could be completed.  We are still waiting for that pay review to happen.  ( insert music from " Benny Hill" )

    Retro Pay & Allow 1Apr 2014 - 1Apr 2017

    A pay-raise for a promotion ?  Whats that ? As a long suffering former LCIS tech, we have been " frozen" since Oct 2011.  Some lucky Sgts in our trade are still being paid as a Cpl incentive 4 ( w/spec pay ) Promoted twice, no pay raise. but, I Digress.

    thanks for posting the letter. My intent above was to say the "delay" wasn't with the release of the letter, it was the review of the pay. This has been a long and very frustrating road, with every update giving hope a solution is within reach. It reminds me of the long range forecast.  13...

    There is a new letter coming out very soon. But from what the ASP course at CFSCE was briefed, there has been an unforeseen delay, and we shall wait some more.

    Well,  I guess we will all "watch and shoot" .  I'm not holding my breath, but I will give your man the benefit of the doubt.  Getting promoted twice with zero pay raise and 10x the headache takes it tole on the best of us. I listened to a video from the CFCWO who talked about the decade of...

    Arrest in Melissa Richmond murder

    I have followed this case with a fair bit of interest. I hope justice will be done in the end with a lengthy jail sentence.  I pray Melissa's family and friends can find peace.

    Gone Are the Days of the NSCE?

    The "army" was taken out of cadets years ago.  Who is going to teach the cadets about the "army" ?  The CIC ?  That organization lost the "army" when the BMI of a large percentage of the CIC tipped into the 40s.

    Joint Task Force 2 (JTF 2) - Canadian Special Forces

    the advice you are most likely to get here is  to focus on finishing high school . Of course you can have goals, but the realistic chances are much lower for SOF than for the conventional CF.

    Imposed restriction and 30 days notice

    I  have sent a " hail marry " to Brookfield to see if anything in their policy covers this situation.  Really, its the door to door move policy that created this problem.  Perhaps I can save the $1700 hit by  changing the closing date of my purchase to Sept 3rd.  Im sure  Brookfield will snap as...

    Imposed restriction and 30 days notice

    They did provide a brief of sorts. My understanding of the purpose of IR is to provide accommodation in your new place of duty with the intention of moving your family at a later date. Which is what I did. ( and not use IR as a way to get posted back to your previous unit after a couple years...

    DAA, I have read a lot of your posts regarding admin issues, and you are usually correct in what you say.  ( all brown nosing aside.  LOL ) Is there a reference regarding my situation?  The clerk today showed me a reference saying rent was only covered when a member is attach posted away, or...
