The RegF does not fund the PRes. Training the PRes is not a primary task of the RegF though it happens pretty much constantly via IT at CTC, the Div TC's, and the RSS postings Should the RegF care more about the quality of the PRes than the PRes themselves? There is more than enough...
1 & 3 are only ever going to be in the context of 2. 2 workes because we are a military that is reg force centric.
Define what any reserve is, either strategic or tactical, and you get augmentation. It's not sexy, but that is exactly what it is.
I kinda like the idea of 120mm mortars. I...
I raced in Vancouver as a civvy in the late 90's in Vancouver. It's a great team sport at a reasonable cost in both dollars and time. Quite frankly, a fit CAF team should do very well. If it doubles the size of our surface fleet, so much the better. There are worse tasking
It is pretty difficult to make generalizations between Pet, TO, or Ottawa or compare Edmonton to Gagetown (Why those two I don't know). Generally speaking our close to professional salary when coupled with a spouse with a close to professional salary will do better in standard of living and in...
D-30 of BMQ is a bit early to worry about risk management with respects to insubordination and conduct. Did you get the joining instructions before you posted?
You have a little under a month. I recommend simplifying your banking and to some extent your life. Things like having your pay...
This is F**Ked. So with fair market value for rent is a one way street that affects only what is charged for PMQs?
Have you considered the free R&Q options like volunteering for perpetual base/unit duty? The minute sheet on that memo might be interesting. Can you have yourself arrested and...
As far as avoiding the grey man label on day one, handlebar eyebrows would be right up there with black eyes, neck tattoos, nail polish as a male and having the course WO collect you from cells.
Depends on what you think is more relevant while you are on course. As staff I would be far more interested in a current situation of say a pregnant wife and three kids than how Polka Dot Door was you and your siblings favorite show when you were six.
I was in your exact situation in 2012 when messages weren't cut till April. My house was on the market 95 days before I pulled it and rented it out. I was lucky I had enough equity to refinance and by a second house.
Depends on your market and where you're headed. For me it was the least...
I have done courses and submitted papers from austere field locations.
Typically you need to register for exams so the institution knows who to send the exam package to and it should arrive early enough to make a mail run to the field. Talk your chain of command about getting an exam proctor...
There are a few things going on here. First, PLQ is a pre-req for CC (assuming CTC won't waiver) and your buddies don't have PLQ. The reserve CTs are irrelevant. The CC course is going to be run and for the money and time your unit is going to need to qualify as many as possible. If your...
quite likely, the Cpl at year 5 in the unit is not in the promotion zone and doing what he is already doing will move his career along at the same pace regardless of the static of ins and outs of other Cpls.
I would be surprised if a career manager on the cusp of promoting MCpl's would then CT...
5+ years in Bn is not the same as five years in rank. 2nd year Cpl's, yeah, this might push them a notch lower but not far or long. Three or more PER's in rank at a unit vs zero PER's will come out in the scoring at the Unit/Regimental/Corps level sooner before later. Real people do watch...
There is a Tims off base
There is no WiFi in the shacks
The chartered banks with branches are BMO and RBC.
If you or your dog run away neither of you will be visible once in the Battle RIver Valley. About one hour.
That should cover it.
:rofl:
Never underestimate the power of a good head of hair...or if balding, the power of looking good smoking a cigar and being Churchill.
Not saying JT is in the same league as any of them but good hair will last longer than any pre-election policy.
Hmmm, history...
I look out into the vehicle compound and I see our majestic fleet:
LSVW - On it's fourth Prime Minister and third governing party
It's pretty new though
MLVW - 7th PM four changes in governing party. But at least it's not crap. Russia was still the enemy when it rolled...
Paracowboy hasn't been active here in years. He is a dude and he is right abut a lot of things. More right than most.
For those through the system army.ca is good. We find advice on places to live when posted or pass on what we know about the system that may not be obvious to anyone not...
