This will be a formal Command Commendation.  I have seen the format on which they expect it to be based on; the submission process for Nominations.  I have all that information.  I was just hoping to see an example of a finished product so I can get a feel for the flow of one.  I've never had...

Thank you for the reply. I agree with the part I bolded and that's why I'd like to see some examples.  I will reach out to my ships office and see if they have anything that may help.

I have been tasked to write a letter of commendation for a subordinate.  I have printed off the Guidance on the Submission Process and what technically needs to be in there, and how it is supposed to look, but I would love to see an example of a previous narrative to get a feel for the flow.  I...

Just a heads up as well, you may not get to choose your NET trade when you enroll anyways.  Sure, you can choose to be NET, but the way its going with the new trade imalgamation (weapons engineer tech's or WE Techs), you wont actually know what trade of CSE you will be until after you are QL4...

As someone who went through St John's and just graduated from there in 2007, I can tell you that during my 2 years at the Marine Institute, there was never a course for Navy personel starting in September.  All the Navy courses, whether it was for mar. eng. or electronic eng. started in...

I guess it depends on what you consider "missing out"  Will you receive a similar education in halifax compared to MI?  Yes, but by attending MI you will get a diploma thats recognized on the civi street.  You dont get that diploma by doing your academics in Halifax.  You will also be missing...

I'm a sonar tech in halifax.  i dont quite understand the question, " worth your time?"  Are you asking if anyone who is a sonar tech enjoys being one?  pm me if you have specific questions and i will do my best to answer them, that or just be more specific here.

Chances are the course in NFLD doesnt start until January of next year so you will probably be posted to CFNES halifax and be put on PAT until then.  If you are lucky you will get on your NETP while you are waiting.  Make sure you request to get loaded on it.  Theres no guarantees as theres...

My apoligizes for not finding that link when I did my search but as you can tell from my previous post, I did attempt to do a thorough search.

Thanks for the updated links guys.  That helped alot. I did not think to note the posts where the links didnt work.  The best I can tell you that every other link involving a pay scale on this website arent working. http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/20231.0.html    -  this section of the...

Hello all, I have been trying to find a current pay scale for the CF (yes I did a search on the site before posting this).  I cannot find any links that work and the forces.ca website simply offers some sort of funky graph.  I am looking for the chart that has always been available, or at least...

So just so I am clear on this, the Gov't had a certain amount of money set aside for this project but its going to cost more than what was expected so they canned the idea.  If this be the case, whats to come of the money that they originally had set aside for the project?  That should be the...

I pulled this one the other day and got a good chuckle.  Civilian Worker Barry Pye to the galley. :D

He meant to say "Subsidized".  ;)

Howdy folks, I did a search but couldnt find what I was looking for.  I was wondering how many gag bosun pipes you can think of that you have pulled on buddies who are up doing Bos'n mate.  ie  LS Eye - Brow,  John Fogarty to the CCR, etc.  What do you have?

Theres always the option of wearing your toque with your work dress instead of your beret.  After spending 2 years in St John's myself, thats what I wore most winter days over there. also on an afterthought, how would the PO have known whether you had passed your test or not?

As far as your questions go. the only one I can answer for sure is the one about the 3s.  This is an equipment training course where you are trained on the gear you are expected to repair on the ship.  You will learn about the ship once you get posted to one upon the completion of your 3s.  As...

I was watching them all leave from the port breezeway of the Freddy.  The other 3 were MCDVs.

Its not so much the answer right away as much as it is the right answer.  ;)  They have a tendency to not know the answer but will give you one anyways. You are right, you will get there and do some admin stuff, in routine and such, then you will get Christmas leave (not sure when it starts...
