I don't know how things are going for postings out of QL3 school now, but a few years ago my trade was heavily biased toward Halifax, no matter what your personal situation was. We had a 43 year old family man from BC, who had an 18 year old daughter in grade 12, get posted East. In fact there were only two West Coast postings from my course, and zero on the following course. I franky feel it's similar these days because I don't notice a lot of Ordinary Seaman SONARs out here. The other operator trades were similar. I suspect NWT and NET would be a little more blanced due to desperate straits with regard to people needed on either coast.
We've had a couple of guys come back after spending some time in HFX, including the older guy, but it took a lot of lobbying on their parts. Rare changes, and one is posted to FAP and the other got stuck on the 280 (worthless postings IMO, as they are career death for sonarmen).
