Can anyone put this chart into army guy terms? Also what does tinnitus of 75 db at 8000 hz mean? I know how I hear, or don't, and I know that the whining in my ear is tinnitus, but what do the numbers mean in laymen's terms? And is this worth putting in a disability claim for?

Yup, nothing to discuss at the time. Just as an FYI, I am a WO with 24 years served. I think I know when to engage my COC, at least I hope so..... :salute: Thanks though.

Perfect, thanks. I am almost up to the 2 month mark now. Should be soon

Has anyone recently submitted their response back to DMCA asking for a retention? If so, what kind of turn around time did you have before getting an answer? I know there are many many variables to each individual case, I am just curious what people are experiencing out there currently.

Unfortunately I did get a response. The only info offered was that my file arrived. The e-mail continued on to elaborate why they would not give details regarding what month they were working on etc. and I am in complete understanding. Patience is the only way now my friends.

I am not sure how or who you are all speaking to, unless this is new today. Here was my response from my inquiry. Due to the excessive volume of PDF files being sent we are requesting that if you have any more than 5 files to send that you send them via mail.  This will greatly increase the...

Thanks for the info, I didn't want to bother the PIL Team, as I figured every email they answered took a little bit of their time away from processing files. I am sure they are working very hard to get this done, and by all accounts are moving pretty quickly through the stacks. At least the 2-3...

Are the payouts only being attached to the pay cycles? Or any day of the month as they are processed? I like a few others here fear that my Unit held onto early submissions to submit bulk. Unfortunate if that is the case.

The framing is mostly done, and the shops/office areas are wrapped in plastic so they can work through the winter. We are just going over the final details in the workshops to make sure everything is how we want it. DCC says the turn over to DND should be Dec 6th 2013.

It was actually more complicated, with dozens of classifications and levels within those classifications. Also the civ pay out was for almost all public servants across Canada in different departments. Only a couple of barganing units are still in negotiations. Not to mention the most of the...

This PIL is an absolute mess, if we beleive our RMS people. We are being told the pay out may take 2-3 years. So if you elect now, and get out in a year, you may not get a pension cheque for 2 years? That cannot be correct, yet thats what they are telling us. When the Civ's did this last year...

You strike a couple nerves with this comment. I have preached for 22 years that we over clean weapons. It drives me nuts. Also, as a Weapons Tech I am curious what Sgt in my trade can't tell the difference between the muzzle crown and the washers. Send me a PM, I would appreciate it.
