And at the end you can add another 6 weeks wait time should you choose lump sum pay out because apparently that is the average time for a direct deposit of funds.
I would take that information with a grain of salt since if we got four people to call today they would speak to four different people at VAC and get four different answers. Just my $0.02
Have a family member currently in BMQ and as near as I can tell from searches, the next step for him would be DP1 Armoured. I assume this takes place @ CTC Gagetown? Now the important question: does a young married trooper have the option to move his family with him for DP1 or must he wait until...
As Vern previously stated, this simply requires some communication from your RQ to the supporting base. If I am reading your story correctly, you deployed on TF-108? Feel free to shoot me a PM telling me some details and I will assist you with finding a resolution.
Considering dangerboy's location and unit, I can guarantee the QM staff have the ECLs available on file and/or will gladly provide him with a hard copy. The staff at 2 VP QM are second to none, though my opinion could possibly be biased ;)
Ladies and Gentlemen, it is true that there have been issues with receiving certain kit for TF 108 deployment. It is also true that the reasons for these issues have been fully explained throughout the Ch of Comd, in all elements of the TF and that the majority of issued have been resolved in...

Looking for books on Canada's involvement from any perspective, be it the history thereof, soldiers stories, etc. I will deploy with TF-108 shortly and looking for reading materials. I already have "On Combat" by Col Grossman and "15 Days" as a starting point. More ideas would be appreciated.
It's not often I wade into a discussion but this one has really captured my interest. One point to remember in all this is that the funeral allowance is not set by DND, it is set by Treasury Board. Should costs associated with the death of a hero be unlimited? I'm on the fence.
Anx U of Military Justice at The Summary Trial Level states that the powers of punishment of a Delegated Officer include fine up to 25% of basic monthly pay.

It has been my experience that those who honestly need treatment can, and for the most part do, enjoy anonimity. It is also my experience that some individuals will broadcast and even brag about the "treatment" they are receiving and this, in itself, can cause them to be seen in a negative...
WO - 24 years - Gagetown, Chatham, Shilo, The Former Yugoslavia, currently Edmonton with a move in the very near future. Long time no talk Scotty, glad to hear all is well. :salute:
