    New RMC duty dress?

    No RMC should not be run like regular CF regiments.  People in regiments are trained personal, Troops in RMC have completed there training.  RMC should be run as a training environment, because you are training.

    CSS Troops - Less "Deserving"?

    Not the evil CTAT and ITAR. I will take  ITAR N  and  CTAT A,  please ArmyVern  ;D .    Lets look at one thing first before we go on.  Some CSS trades have been merged with other trades over the decades.  It is the same as if the Infantry and Artillery were amalgamated.  Good luck
