    British parachute wings

    This is wear I have always seen Brit and German wings as they don't seem to have miniatures.  Including the former Army Comd.  But dangerboy is right, foreign qualifications on mess kit is the most abused regs we have, but when senior officers and senior CWO are doing it I feel pretty well free...

    Tablets

    Well John Chen is certainly more concerned about making money of corporate/government software side of the business.  Saying that BB will fade from the consumer market would depend on what market you are taking about, yes they are already dead in the US and fading in the G8 countries.  But we...

    FORCE Combat standard [Merged]

    There is an Army message from the CCA that states that the Load Bearing March is an IBTS requirement, and that though failing it is not a fitness fail, your unit CoC is completely within their rights to place the member on administrative measures if appropriate.  As it means you are not...

    Tablets

    Well you can run 95% of android apps on BB10 phones, only ones that require google services can't be run without some hacking.  I much prefer the swiping interface of BB10 to the home button centric iOS, but to each his own.

    Tablets

    Well yes the Playbook is EoL but I still have one and it makes a fine ereader among other things.  But the demise of BB has been greatly exaggerated.  With BB10.3 coming out and BES 10/12 there is really no reason to not stay with the most secure system you can get, and the only one currently...

    NCM PME/PD

    What I'm asking is that the intent is that the DP1/BMQ was only supposed to be the start not the end, it was supposed to continue to the entire NCM DP system and then other branch's /Corps would be invited to cert their training as well.  So it's been a year since any updates, has the...

    Academic Recognition of Military Experience

    You need to look at this thread, it has lots of details on were NCMPD is going and programs at Algonquin. http://army.ca/forums/threads/108362.0 The Digital Chief has unfortunately retired, but his FB page is still up, it will just not be updated.

    NCM PME/PD

    Has anyone heard from CDA lately on how far along in the DP system is Algonquin for certification/accreditation? Has any trade/Corp accreditation happened?

    Electronic-Optronic Technician ( EO Tech )

    EO Tech's do not do the formal POET course any more, the elements that we required have been integrated into the DP1 course.  So you will go directly from BMQ to the RCEME School in Borden, and right on to the next DP1.  If there is a delay then you will just spend some time on PAT Pl.

    Wanted for CF: "Commercial-off-the-shelf Precision (7.62 mm) Weapons"

    Parts are limited that is true.  But I believe we can still get some barrels if they are shot out.  But yes the C3's are on their death bed.

    Wanted for CF: "Commercial-off-the-shelf Precision (7.62 mm) Weapons"

    Anyone with DWAN access can look at the CID, I didn't have time today, but shall try tomorrow.

    Wanted for CF: "Commercial-off-the-shelf Precision (7.62 mm) Weapons"

    I would say the C14 supplemented the C3A1, we still have C3A1's along side the C14, in fact we just upgraded the rails and scope on some C3A1's to make using them as a training rifle more closely aligned to the reticule used in the other more advanced rifles.

    Wanted for CF: "Commercial-off-the-shelf Precision (7.62 mm) Weapons"

    Ok so while I fully understand the spec on the SOR, what role are we buying a suppressed 7.62 AR based accurate weapon for?

    Paid parking DND property

    Good questions, there has to be a local rate for public parking for TB to state DND has to follow suite.  For instance while DND locations in downtown Ottawa or Gatineau have rates, Uplands and Letrim to not as there is no public rate in the area.  But yes Recruit Centres in large cities should...

    Uniform/Badges upon OT effective date

    Yes this makes little sense to me too, having an OT wear the new badge with CADPAT workdress, but then wear his old uniform when in DEU seems stupid.  It should be all new or all old.  But this is the CFLTC(aka CFSAL).....

    All Memo Templates: (AVOTP, ED&T, File Number, OJT, OT, Release, Retention)

    That may be, but if a member doesn't like the Adj's response, he still has every right to see his CO.  That can not be delegated.

    All Memo Templates: (AVOTP, ED&T, File Number, OJT, OT, Release, Retention)

    19.12 - COMMUNICATION WITH THE COMMANDING OFFICER An officer or non-commissioned member may, upon application, see the member's commanding officer on any personal matter. And this QR&O spells out pretty clearing your right to communicate with your CO.  So if a memo is being ignored, exercise...

    Complaints/ Investigation

    Yes to comment intelligently we really need more details on whether this is a disciplinary investigation or a workplace harassment situation, there are well laid out processes for both, but very different ones.

    All Memo Templates: (AVOTP, ED&T, File Number, OJT, OT, Release, Retention)

    I disagree completely, yes the Adj handles correspondence for the CO.  But no one has the right to block your memo to the CO, it is every members right to have access to their CO.  If you feel strongly enough about this issue ask for an appt with the CO, if that gets blocked as well, walk right...
