    Air Nav name change?

    Considering how far astray this conversation has gone from what it was intended to be I have to strongly recommend that now that we have sorted everything out, and corrected those who need correcting, that we close this topic and possibly delete the posts that do not pertain, such as all the mud...

    Air Nav name change?

    While it is true that they are called EWOs they are still navigators by trade.  Just like Seakings we are called TACCOs TACtical COordinators.  The Aurora has different positional names for their Navs too, it is just a matter of reference to their position.  Overall everyone is still qualified...

    New Helicopters: Griffon/ Griffon Varient?

    Now the fun part about all that is not only are they sailing around with the DLTV bu they also get to have the "fun" of doing it when they are looking to sail into any of the arger storms that they can find.  I definately do not envy that tasking.

    U.S. fighter pilot Harry Schmidt talks about the friendly fire that ended his...

    I really have to agree with GO!! on this one.  It is the fault of the pilot, it is his responsibility to identify his target.  He fired on a target that, although was a possile perceived threat, he could have turned away from, so as to avoid the threatening area.  And ultimatley he had requested...

    Two Marine F-18s missing

    I am curious as to where you are getting your numbers from? Why is it that you don't believe that insurgents "couldn't have a huge number of these(SA Missles)".  I am not trying to start a flame fest on here, it is just that you don't seem to look upon the insurgents as having any/much warfare...

    Makes you wonder, what did the poor guy do wrong to get bucket duty.......suddenly so many other extra duties don't look that bad anymore.

    Fighting at St-Jean

    I would love to say that violence is never the answer......but I know that isn't true and if it were then there would be no need for you to go on basic training.  That being said I would have to agree with Theoat's approach, it is far more mature and you never need to fight with somebody who...

    what career options are available after you complete an Arts degree

    If you are going to be working at it for 4yrs make sure you pick a degree you will be interested in.  It is hard to stay motivated if you don't.  That being said, go to the recruiting centre, or look online, and see what job options are open to you if you choose that degree path; hopefully, you...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    I graduated from there last may as well and I can say that it may or may not be as difficult as you expect.  A lot depends on your degree program, your Squadron whether or not you decide to try for varsity sports etc.  I do want to point out that if you are expecting a Malcolm in the Middle...

    Incentive Pay Category For Cadets Joining The CF

    Accelerated progression just because you were a cadet, that is a somewhat scary concept.  Anyone I have ever know said that after about 1-1.5months they were pretty much on par with everyone that had no prior experience with the military.  But that is only based off the words of about 30-40...

    Embarrasing Question

    Well said MP 00161.  I to agree that honesty is always the best policy.  Why have the possibility of somebody always "finding out someday" when you could be upfront about it and then be done with it. Last thing you want to do is limit/endanger your career just because you don't wanna talk about...

    Kingston thread - merged

    Kingston is a great place as far as those things go.  The city is excellent in the summer time, there are so many places that you can go to and things that you can do.  There are a good number of bars, clubs, and pubs depending on what you like to do.  A good assortments of restaurants and as...

    Religion and Politics

    I am deeply opposed to the idea that religion should have a place in modern day politics.  Although I do respect all religions and those who believe them.  I myself think that while it is completely up to the individual (who should never fear any form or persecution) what they believe they...

    RESISTANCE TO INTERROGATION INSTRUCTOR

    I don't want to assume what techniques they would be allowed to use; however, I would hope that they are not going to teach you how to resist just the "legal" ways of interrogation as it would be highly likely that those are not the only ones that we need to worry about.  I think that if they...

    Wearing Uniform in Public (merged)

    In response to Combat Medics earlier question to bigfoot.  Yes it is still required that the RMC and Westpoint Cadets wear full dress uniform.  So for RMC that is the scarlets complete with gloves and pillbox and the Westpoint cadets still wear their full dress greys.  The whole thing with face...

    why bother?

    I don't think I have ever met anyone that had a goal of getting C- in school.  Everyone wants to do better than the bare minimum.  Yes it s true that there are always those who want to skim the bottom, but they tend to stay there in all aspects of the job.  I think the minimums are there to make...

    is st.jean a canadian forces base?

    I would have killed for the chance to do basic in Chilliwack, I missed the chance by a couple of years.  I am from langley though and know exactly what CFB Chilliwack is like.  It is the ideal spot for any and all training, heaven forbid that we learn how to do mountain climbing on actual...
