I understand that troops are getting Hardship and Risk Allowances in theater I was just wondering what the base rate for these allowances are.  Say the combined total per month  for the different levels. Thanks for the help. :cdn:

Are you still looking for him??

The Line Trade is one of the best ones out there.  We are an extremely close knit "family". As we say, "Once a Lineman, Always a Lineman.  Linemen forever". Yes, during our down time, some of the work we do is menotonus (sorry about the spelling), but at most of the time it is go-go-go.  We do...

does anyone know if they are "re-releasing" this pub?

Does anyone remember the "Warrior Book"?  I think the field manual was put out back in '95 '96.  It covered all the weapons, IA's etc etc. It was an awsome reference.  Does anyone know the publication number??

Lineman vs Sigwhat... no question.  Line all the way. As a lineman you are part of a brotherhood, once a lineman, always a lineman.  As my coin states.  Regardless if you are res or reg, the brotherhood stands strong.  We work hard, play hard, and we do both shoulder to shoulder as one. There...

Daisy, I have to agree, give your BF a little time and room. For some, they feel the only ones that would understand them, are the ones that were with them.  Decompressing from any stressful event is a must.  A buddy of mine said that AF was the most horrific experience that he has ever had. ...

Hello everybody. Once again another city since I first started this post. Can anyone tell me about CFHA in Halifax?  All the dirt, rumours, secrets, or hints will be great, so I can be prepared further when I need to deal with them. Lets keep talking about the costs, conditions, and...

That is has ridiculous as sending the morons who put them in the first place to go back and pick them up. Hey, let plant some nice flowers over them to blow more innocent people up.  Land mine or dangerous and blind, they don't care who steps on them or who f**ks with them, they are designed to...

On your posting move, if you decide to travel part away through the US.  Does IRP cover it, all, or part of it?  How does it affect the cost of hotels?  Obviously if it not "out of the way", but rather another means of getting across, like going under the lakes. I know the tolls aren't...

Having K9 units is a great concept for the CF.  However their use is not just norrowed to the MPs.  Yes the MPs could use K9s for their duties rather then relying on the RCMP for manhunts, bombsniffing, drugs, etc. But other units could use K9 sections: Inf/ Eng- for check points, bomb/...

The othe consideration of people leaving the CF are the other agencies in the government that are hiring.  And with better pay. The CF is gettin a 2.3% pay increase in Oct.  RCMP got 9.7%. CSIS, RCMP, and a handful of other agncies are hiring tech positions.  Making their offers attractive...

Honestly....first and foremost is this the sort of question that you and your boyfriend want or need the world to know. Second is you have to ask yourself is how solid is the relationship is based on.  If the foundation that your relationship is built, for example there is an underlining...

You can never truely know all the risks and hazards that are out there.  However we do our best to protect and defend to keep our children safe. We have car seats, booster seats, plugs for outlets, gates for rooms and stairs, door stops and door knob covers, we cover corners of furniture, and...

Get your husbands units rear party to Search and Destroy who evers is responsible. For one, if it is a emergency, of no fault of your own, should CFHA not pay for the after hours sevice call.  Or at lease care to see how you are doing.  Good God, your husband IS DEPLOYED!!!  Second, I had my...
