If you are an MP awaiting training at PRETC, they will try to get you on a ride-along with the local MP Det or use you as an actor for MP training purposes at the academy.  But since you are part of PRETC, their staff have the final say whether you go or not.  It depends on what training PRETC...

The sword/dagger looks more like an ornament than a weapon, but it could still ruin your day if you got stuck with it.

Your right, Faulk.  One step at a time.  Much of that will depend on when the courses are scheduled to run (both your basic and MP QL3).  Your MPAC Staff will probably have an idea of what kind of time frame you are looking at, but remember the phrase  "Hurry up and Wait!", it will be useful in...

Faulk, Good Luck and hope to see you in the Branch soon!

To add to Shamrock's comment, memorize all your references to your powers of arrest, charter of rights. powers of a peace officer, etc.  Your instructors will hammer this into anyway as the School Chief loves to surprise/torment the students (QL 3's, 5's).  He has been known to attend the...

I have some more news on this subject.  I visited the Academy last month and apparently many changes to the trade are currently being discussed at the senior level (CWO, Maj, LCol).  One of these proposals included scraping the automatic Cpl rank for MP QL3 graduates and getting back to having...

This is from the CFMPA website from the DWAN. Not sure how up to date the prices are, but you'll get an idea. If you can't access it let me know, the price list is an excel file and there is also a *.pdf file with pictures.  I can download and send via email if needed...

The media has to try and create a scandal or at least a doubt in the minds of the public to keep them interested. Can't wait for the bleeding hearts to start  :crybaby: that the hand restraints and blind folds on the "poor" detainess is a vilolation of their rights.

CouchCommander you beat me to the quote, but you are right on target with the GC III Art 5 comment and since no one else has done it yet, here is a  cut/paste directly from the 1949 GC III for Art 4 and 5 so there should be no questions on their PW status.  This has been edited for length but...

I don't think that the US is giving much of a priority to catching Bin Laden.  It is more effective having him on the run and looking over his shoulder, instead of letting him have breathing room to plot the next terrorist attacks.  If they happen to catch him during an operation then bonus...

If the requirement for a Criminal Background Check is a "Military" requirement then the following section from ASJ 100-004/AG-000 applies: 21. Vulnerable Sector Screening (VS) and Police Checks in Relation to Employment Opportunities.  All VS and Police checks in relation to employment...

Just some inside info.  A Coy was on a field ex here in Shilo prior to their depature for Ontario and its my understanding they starting gettig sick almost immediately after their arrival in Pet.  As well, I haven't heard of any other cases of this bug in 2 VP or Shilo for that matter.  Its a...

Here is my 2 cents or conspiracy theory if you prefer. Could have been the enemy testing our troops.  Seems kind of odd that he ran a check point, ignored all warnings and then drove close to the Cdn vehicle (within 1 m as one news report stated).  You never know but their tactics will evolve...

Sorry Rock, your right it is on the DND Intranet.  I believe there is a site for CFMPA that is accessable from the internet. Perhaps someone else knows the link  ???  But I'll keep looking and post if I find anything.

Check the CFMPA site.  They sometimes have info on courses. http://borden.mil.ca/cfmpa/index_e.asp

It seems like we are going a bit off topic. Futuretrooper, if you post your question in the "Military Police" thread you will probably get answers you are looking for. MP's hated by everyone??? In 24 years service, I have heard people complain about almost every trade in the CF.  i.e. "The...

I tell any serving members, who express an interest in an to OT to the MP trade, to start some kind of L and S program or police related courses, if they haven't already.  As the trade requires the direct entries to hold an L and S Diploma, the OT's should have some kind of Police educational...

People as a whole generally dislike law enforcement personal because we stop you from doing the things that you should not be doing in the first place. But as it was previously mentioned in this forum CF members tend to down play their "MP encounter" by telling their buddies how the "MP's...

Entry into the NIS or NCIU would be based on the amount of time in/experience/courses of the given the individual.   Generally, the troops are not looked at for these positions until they are QL 5 (Cpl) qualified.   From that point it is a matter of submitting a memo thur the Chain of Command...

Is the Japanese market not re-opened to Cdn Beef or has it closed its borders again?
