In regards to the pay, could that be the stem of the problem?
Perhaps the unit asks for volunteers, and unless they get a certain quota of volunteers they will not send out any men. That means they don't have to pay them for something that does not contribute to the units effort.
Who here makes their own camouflaged uniforms?
I've begun my own ghillie suits and other misc pieces.
One piece is the issued Tilly hat. I converted it to woodland tiger stripe pattern with Cadpat and Olive strips. Haven't quite perfected it yet, but on its way.
Perhaps others who build their...

Having the great feeling of being and doing something different with you're life that 95% of most teenagers would never think of doing in their lifetime.
But mostly for me.... Having that great sense of family. ;D

However, scoring 92 on that test does indicate that you do have the ability to do well on the CFAT.
Actually to stimulate interest in the CF.
The word of mouth recommendation was truly the one that gave us a big jump in new Cadets. I think From the time M/Cpl Sop joined, as well with a few other females that are making good careers for themselves, is when more and more females began joining...
The National Post has posted a almost full page article on 557 Lorne Scots this Saturday in the Review and Books sections of the newspaper.
