Get used to it.....now that NPF has control of stuff like this, it's out of the military's hands.  I understand how frustrating it can be at times, but it is now a way of life......so instead of blaming civvies, rmc/cic cadets, was there anything proactive you did about the situation.....or just...

Nevermind all, I found him.  Thanks :cdn:

This may not be the appropriate forum for this (direct me elsewhere if you know of a better one), but I am trying to track down a buddy of mine in chilliwack right now, and all I know is his first name....Brad.  Any ideas or recommendations out there? :cdn:

You might want to read the original thread, it is precisely about the difference in professionalism between the ranks and officers and how this is actually being taught as an OPME.

That's because the reg force guys are sick of doing up 5 tours up there, the numbers just aren't there. :cdn:

I know they have at least one Cpl/MCpl loadie position.  The traffic tech when I was up there requested a 3 month extension (I guess life was good for him up there), and got it.  :cdn:

What about Gen Penney?  He's an a/f engineer, but an engineer nonetheless.

Apparantly you have no clue what you are talking about............and in such a case, you should not be giving advice to some young person looking to join the CF.

They have humidifiers in each room, so don't bother taking one.  As far as a camera goes, it would be a good idea, but there are many things you can't take pictures of.....you'll find out on you in-brief.  As far as wildlife goes, expect foxes and hares, maybe the occasional wolf or even a polar...

............don't know if I got all of that, but well said nonetheless

If you have to do BOTC after switching, it follows closely to what your JLC will (and infact, you can get many things written off; such as teaching lessons), but unfortunately for future officers, BOTC is only a fraction of the course that your JLC is (ie. JLC is a superior course from personal...

I currently go to RMC, AND I'm a UTPNCM, so if anyone has any questions about either, feel free to fire away.

.......Then I guess a garbage man is a professional, so long as he does his job diligently, and to the best of his ability/training.........

Yeah, I know Andy.

'79..............holy crap.......That was a while ago........don't worry.......nothing is the same now.  I was there in '98-'99, and well, it is what it is.  You will never fully appreciate Alert until you spend some time there.........that's about all I can say.

I agree with you, but this is an OPME, and this course uses such strong (yet outdated) opinions of people such as Huntington that it can influence younger members opinions.  Anyone with time in would most likely just disregard these opinions, but I have personally seen ROTP's read this...

Just out of curiousity; how many respondants have actually been overses, and of those, how many have actually deployed with DART?

Ignorance is bliss Have you ever been on a mission of any substantial size; it requires many support staff?  To keep it to 100 pers is almost out of the question..........you cannot have the req'd pers to sustain the mission.  This is not for a mere press release, it is to actually do good for...

You can buy "chew" or whatever you like at the Canex :cdn:

Maybe their Pers File had info that made them undesireable to let them back in........just a thought.........many variables, I suppose.
