I've noticed lately a few topics where the message icon selected had nothing to do with the topic at had. Specifically a few used the EME flag when the subject was clearly unrelated to Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

Sure I'm picking at nits, I fully admit it. But Corps /; Branch / Regimental pride is important, and I'm sure members of the Armored Corps woudn't want their Corps icon posted on a topic discussing Naval Operations, and so forth.

I have received a heads up that my next posting is likely an RSS position. Now, I am in the unfortunate position of not only having limited and dated knowledge of the reserves, but also that none of my peers in my current unit have served in RSS positions. I used the search engine, and while there is much explanation on this site of what life is like as a reservist, there is little discussion of the role of the RSS in the whole process.

I did serve in a reserve combat arms unit in the 90's, briefly, before joining the reg force, but my memories of US rain jackets, AVGPs and militia districts is, I know, quite dated. I don't even remember the difference between Class B and Class B (A)!

Does anyone with Regular Support Staff experience have any lessons learned or observations about the job that they would like to share?

So to preface, Prabh is a friend of mine, and has been missing now for the better part of a week.

While the odds of anything useful turning up by posting on here are slim, I'm willing to take any and every chance that something might help. He is a former member of my unit who had to release in order to attend law school in Australia.

Below are pertinent links regarding his disappearance.  If anyone has any information please let me or the authorities know, so that the information can be relayed to those who need it.

Many thanks for listening, and for your help.
