I am going on my PLQ(inf) this weekend. I need a kitlist. I have the link but it is to the intranet site.

http://armyonline.kingston.mil.ca/lfca/143000440005474/default.asp

Could someone that is on the DWAN post the kitlist here please. Or PM me.

Thanks.
 
The kitlist I found is a big honkin' spreadsheet.  If you have a civie email address you want to give out, PM me and I'll fire off what I found.

Makes for more typical "Friday afternoon emergencies" ...

Quite normal at clothing to have someone looking for an item(s) on Friday afternoons only to find we're out of stock (especially for specific "popular" sizes) and that it'll take us a week t get him one from the depot re-supply run ... only to hear "but, I'm going on course tommorrow [or Monday]) ... sigh. But guaranteed, it's our fault.

Here, we do a 100% turn-around of stock per week in our clothing stores ... that means we get re-supplied once per week with 100% of stock. People --- STOP waiting until the last minute to get your shit together.

It's almost as bad as the 50 brand new tunics that without fail show up on November 9th with the stipulation that "I need my tailoring done for tomorrow so I can have it for November 11th."

And, despite it having been 4 years already since we've stocked DEUs ... there's always the November 10th "rush" to buy new shirts/ties/tunics/pants etc from us at clothing stores (which we can NOT do as we don't have them!!) ...  ::)

I was thinking that too.  If the OP isn't anywhere close to a unit to get DWAN access, I hope he/she has the ability to get issued the kit they are deficient and/or exchange the kit they have that is N/S.

It's been awhile since I was in the PRes world, but aren't candidates required to have a pre-course *checklist* signed off by the OR which states the mbr is ready for "insert course name here"?  That checklist included all pers kit and documentation, course pre-req's, etc.

Not that I know of. But my unit makes us "out clear" before leaving on Class B taskings.

That is too bad IMO.  It used to keep the unit and mbr responsible to show up for crse/tasking kitted out and with all necessary admin done.

My old PRes unit, years ago, sent someone to CABC without making sure they could pass the PT test prior to him arriving in Edmonton.  After not being able to do the required amount of chin-ups (7), the mbr was RTU'd at unit expense. 
 
Joining instructions are required to be provided by your unit.  Why not call your unit and have someone print out that link for you, for example the Ops O/WO who course loaded you.

Here is a kit list for the Infantry School.  The DP3A or QL6B column should get you started packing.  Good luck.

Yes, yes they are ... and most (if not all) course loading messages clearly state on them "Unit is to ensure that member reports for course with all kit as per checklist(or "Scale D01-XXX") ...

Yet, I can't tell you how many zero-trade guys/gals have shown up here without basics such as tac vests, helmets etc and when brought over to clothing by their course when queried as to "Why didn't you bring them, they are on the kitlist?" state: "Well, I didn't think I'd need them". Me: "HELLOOOO!! You're on the advanced patrolmen's course FFS."  ::)

I keep threatening their staff that I am going to STOP affecting temp issues (double-issues) to these idiots ... and that the School can then do it's job and RTU the asshat and deal with the Units who are failing to take heed of and ensure compliance with the course loading messages.

There'd be a whole lot of RTUs happening around here ... but again, the Units would never stand for it and it would somehow be turned around to become a supply system problem or fault - there is a distinct aversion to facing the man in the mirror and admitting where the actual fault & responsibility lie (with the member first & foremost, but then the "Unit to ensure" mbr reports with kit as per...); instead, we like to babysit. They pay me a whole hell of a lot of money to babysit supposed-adults.

Not all members attending the PLQ in LFWA (or anywhere) are ... Army. Air and naval pers still have 2 X DEU.  ;) For the Army -there is only one applicable weight, for the Air Force ... not so much.

The LFWA kitlist is quite correct in stating:

Trousers DEU (applicable seasonal weight) 2 pr

Tunic DEU (applicable seasonal weight) 1


 
Hmmmm, sitting here thinking as evily as I do - I believe I have a solution to the below problem ...

Course loading messages should, from here forward, actually be ammended to read (they'd just have to add the bold bit ...):

"Unit is to ensure that member reports for course with all kit as per checklist (or "Scale D01-XXX"). Failure to ensure member reports with kit as per direction will result in member being immediately RTU'd at Unit expense. Unit can then initiate recovery action for the total RTU costs against member's pay."

Wanna bet a whole bunch of soldiers would then start doing what their joining instructions and course messages actually tell them to do?

Holy crap. Do they give you seacan with a handle to hold all that?

Nah, they give you a MoB now - just as big and bulky. Unfortunaly, it's already overweight and oversized (to go commercial air etc) before you pack a single thing into it. Ahhhh .... there's that "lack of common sense" or "asking experience boots-on-ground' input prior to introducing new kit items into the system. Some things will never cease to amaze ...

But Vern the kit list and question was pertaining to the INFANTRY PLQ, but I do stand corrected that the other services have different weight material.

There are indeed some of us "purple" tradespeople who are required to do the Inf PLQ ...

(Thank you NDHQ for fixing that situation !!!)
