    Do you wish your corps would do more with your Affiliated Unit?

    Going by the link that rwgill has given me, it states: One of the three aims of the Cadet Movement is to stimulate the interest of cadets in sea, land, and air activities of the CF. This is the intention of cadet participation in CF unit activities, including the participation in exercises and...

    Advice: Wear Sunscreen

    When I did CL Band at Blackdown, we did several parades off base and most of these parades were about 2 hours long. I know for a fact that the vast majority of the band had beret/ wedge tans and ugly t-shirt tans. Hence why when your staff and drum major (me) suggest that you put on heavy...

    Do you wish your corps would do more with your Affiliated Unit?

    Although we cannot go on exercises with the reserves, I believe that by taking a group of the top rated cadets from each corp on an exercise as an observer could spark a strong intrest in the cadets. By having this day trip, it would give the most intrested cadets something to strive for and it...

    Do you wish your corps would do more with your Affiliated Unit?

    Imbeault: No one in our home corp has done any exercise or any field training/ shadowing to my knowledge. The most we have ever done is gone shooting with them and that was a while ago. This was only a question to see if any qualifications in the civilian world applied to the military. I also...

    Do you wish your corps would do more with your Affiliated Unit?

    Out of curiosity, if said cadet went on an exercise and did movements and some rifle training with their affiliated unit would that be okay?Or would they be repremanded for it. Even if that cadet had their restricted firearms licence. (Just the possesion not the acquisition licence.) Just a...

    Extra things to bring (but aren't on the list) to camp

    Making it is part of the "experience" but when you are doing duty band and cannot afford to waste anytime in your tent, a sleeping bag comes in handy. For those of you who don't know, the CL Band raised the flags quite often the year leaving us with 10 minutes to make our tents immaculate and...

    Extra things to bring (but aren't on the list) to camp

    After the chilly nights at Blackdown this year, bring:                                                                           1) Extra Wool Socks                                                                           2) Polypro Top and Bottom (the U.S. stuff works really well but is bulky)...

    My First Car

    A true gas guzzler is a Ford Excursion on city conditions it averages about 22 liters per 100km. Not the best, but as close to a tank as possible (excluding the Hummer H1) If you ever feel bad about filling your tank, then be a friend and fill our family's 160L tank. That will put everything...

    Army.ca ranking system (new idea)

    Instead of blaming somebody else (mods) , take responsibility and do something about it. Just by assumption I am guessing that you are 19?

    Multiple cl course?

    According to our officers, the rule has now changed that if you take or get an RTU (except in special cases) then you will not be allowed to return because you took a camp placement that somebody else could have filled. This just enforces the fact that if you go to camp, then you go for the...

    Who here has a Cadet Medal, what is it, and what did you have to do to get it?

    If you do two different CLI courses, is it possible to get two ANAVETS? Just wondering as I think it would be cool to have a bar on the ANAVET medal.
  17. Q

    Multiple cl course?

    No that's not what I mean, Imbeault       Any your right, getting an RTU can be for various reasons (CHAP, FRAT, Behavioral, Personal, or Medical). What I understood, was that if that RTU is for a reasonable reason then they won't hold that against you, but if you are being a constant idiot...
  18. Q

    Multiple cl course?

    Nope, any RTU means no coming back because it means that you have taken a spot that a potential stand-by cadet could have taken. So believe what you want but the only way out of it I think is taking a personal because of a family emergency. So take from this what you will but this is what I was...

  20. Q

    Multiple cl course?

    Last thing you want to do now is commit to your position and not show up. According to my officers, if you get an RTU at camp, you aren't allowed back. So just go and use the chain of command, only suggestion I can provide.
