The other hard part maybe finding an authorized pipe band with paid positions for pipers.  I know the Calgary Highlander pipe band is a volunteer band with only a couple of paid positions.

The word I got from the Commander was it was a money issue.  The price of the flights were more than doubled than what Bde had anticipated.  WRT the passports, a good portion of the Bde would have then from Mountain Grizzly in Fort Lewis.

As a fellow Res Log O, I can shed some light on the subject.  To be promoted at any rank you need, the pre requisite courses, time in, there has to be a position for the next rank at the unit, and you have to have the recommendation from your CO (for up to Capt.)  Usually the recommendation is a...

I'm looking for an up to date EME Common CTP.

Let me throw a curve ball.  I can also order them and I assure you that I'm an officer.

It's nice to see this being planned.  The usual comment to seeing me in uniform, is that they thought all of the Army had left.  Unfortunately I can't be there.  Duty calls.

Actually it was decided at the Court of Appeal level of several provinces, it was only a matter of time before it got to the SCC.  By the way, the Court of Appeal is several courts higher than a "provincial court".

We use our field kitchen a bit.  This is what I have learned from our KO.  It should be manned by at least 2 people, it is supported with a MLVW, specially configured (IIRC) and it uses propane.

The last time I checked, about last year, RMS clerk can do QL3 and SQ in any order.  But you need SQ to be promoted.

You can try here.  That's where I got mine. http://www.forces.gc.ca/admmat/logbranch/Kitshop/kitsh_e.asp

Shouldn't that be CFSAL?

I agree with you ScoutFinch. +1

Be very careful making generalizations like that.  Landlord and Tennants legislation is provincial jurisdiction and can vary from province to province.  Just because it says that in BC, doesn't mean that it does in Alberta,  Ontario or Quebec.

What you are looking for are Pickett Military Template Set.  I ordered mine on the web, however, the 2 websites I could find, don't ship to Canada.

In Calgary, the procedure is that you go to the BOR with the receipts.  They will do up the claim paper work.  Then you have to go to Clothing Stores to get your clothing documents annotated.  At that time, you can either then go to the cashier or take the forms back to the BOR for electronic...

It's not just for the Combat Arms.

It's the norm for Army Reserve Officers.  There are more BMQs and they can be run locally, so there are savings and you can get the course sooner.  If I remember a briefing correctly, there is a 2 week? (10 day?) add-on course that deals with leadership principles and small party taskings.

I believe that is just in the Army Reserve.

I doubt any of us.  The word I got yesterday is that Ex Desert Grizzly is cancelled.

We did run an EME Common course last summer.  As with the supervision, qualified instructors can be a constraint.
