So...there's no one here saying YOU can't do it but Dangerboy is correct: have Plan B. For JTF-2 a bar is set for all candidates - at every point this bar t is set to minimum standard for each serial or evolution and for each step through the process the bar is moved higher and you are expected...

It may sound harsh, but not all officers ( let alone CFR's) seek the qualifications, duties, or education that will advance them to the level they wish to be, or had motivation to be at once they become an officer and realize they are middle of the pack. I am certainly not painting all officers...

I didn't mean to imply he HAD to move to the flag rank to measure his success. My point is he must define his own success, but understand that he should think about his decision and apply them to goals. My comments or what may be implied, come from years of dealing with organizational politics...

All good advice, so my only contribution is two questions: Why do I 'really' want a commission? <---- honestly reflect on that question. Do I have expertise and/or education? <---- what could you or do you offer that being an officer would enhance. There is no wrong answer, but if you are...

Anyone have a consolidated publication for Motto's in the CF or NATO...including tri-tervice? I'm specifically looking for Pathfinder/Recce motto(s).

My dad is having a summer wedding next year. It's significantly cheaper than mess kit, which I may be getting for the reception anyway.

Is it good quality...as in the threads aren't coming out a year later, and it's a good fit that looks good and still comfy?

I've heard of this guy, as well as another one in the Kingston area. Thanks! I'll check him out tomorrow..er...I mean call him.

I'm entitled to one. And they are not available on Clothing Online through Logistiks. I can order the white shoulder flashes and buttons for the tunic, but not the tunic.

Where can I find a supplier for the high collar tunic? And can we wear the Brit pattern tunic, or does it have to be the Can/US pattern? If needbe could I call Borden or ASU London (I'm in Souther Western Ontario) and order one from supply there?

Official word from both Lt(N) Trucotte, Sea Training Officer for RCSU (Regional Cadet Support Unit) Central Region is that CADPAT is to only be worn for  RCIS activities while on course or while employed at a CSTC. The CWO for the Region has also made this quite clear. While a higher or...

Good point. Well...I guess I'm just making friends everywhere.

Late teens. My dad also spent the better part of his life at sea.

Ah yes...I've just spent the whole day pouring over crap, and my brain is mush. Thank you, sir!

I'm sure there were a few reasons. The official reason I've been told, and give, is that Mess Dress, though bought out of pocket, is still a uniform of the CF, regulated by CFP-265...blah, blah... The CANFORGEN was pretty specific. Command wants to increase the public image of the CF.

Ach so...ooops. Wrong word usage there.

What's your motivation to go to Sea? If it's for a girl...well, their are plenty of pretty girls in Barrie - it's just a bit of a drive to find them. For anyone that's been to sea, you either love or your hate it. There's no real inbetween. If you're the type that can puke in his spaghetti and...

For private functions, no. There is a new CANFORGEN (or something similar) that encourages CF Members to wear their uniforms to public and/or civilian functions, and it applies unconditionally to Reg F as there is generally no restrictions to them wearing their uniforms. I vaguely remember the...

For the Sea program, Acting ranks are given only for those completing the LHQ Phase Program and have not met all the prerequisites for promotion. The only Acting rank in the Sea program is Acting Petty Officer First Class. YTo be promoted to Petty Officer First Class the cadet must have...

I don't think she sounded like a jerk...she's just being protective, like a good, fiance, mother, girlfriend should be. The bond between your mates is probably as strong, in some ways stronger, than your bond with her. One is based upon experiencing happiness, tribulation, and time with one...
