A couple of other sources have stated that "there is a person of interest" under guard.  Everything surrounding that guy is a rumour. We should all be very careful about assigning blame (not directed at Strike, but rather the larger audience).  Allow the authorities to do their job.  As...

Apologies for the delay, I'll address these questions over the weekend in a new thread and link to here. The one armed paper hanger just got busy fast is all...

Yarp! And I am one of them that is trying to get more RegF buy in for IA. My dream is not as grand as the Americans or Chinese, but I do dream of a much more robust IA capability which can only happen when the RegF jumps on board.

Just wanted to point out that IA, by doctrine and design, augments everything that a military does from full on combat, to peace keeping, to foreign natural disaster response, to domestic ops. A military commander that chooses to not use IA is actively choosing to leave very important and...

I can not read, nor write to those forums... The blatant lies and deceit along with the utter contempt. Not to mention the one sided moderation. The grope and flail is as bad, if not worse then the Star.

I have a very strong knowledge of both. Don;t want to call it an insurgency? Fine, terrorist actions that have EXACTLY the same motivations. Feel better?

Fact is, the point has been made that Israel is not even attempting to follow COIN doctrine, has not bothered since day one... As a result, we have an insurgency that has actually been getting stronger for the past half century, one that feeds other insurgencies around the world. Would it...

I watched that trailer above...  :o Not only do they run, but they build zombie pyramids to get over walls! I gotta rethink my plan and start running more and faster!

Kid, you are barking up exactly the wrong tree. Re-examine what you want to do with your life, as, using the CF as a stepping stone is not for you... You are simply not cut out for it and you are certainly not officer material. I am not in fear of you ever commanding anything, as this attitude...

And to be sure, I agree with Loachman. It is perfectly legal to come in with the intent to milk the system and get out as soon as possible. I ask you though, why should we choose you over someone who has career aspirations? I would prefer to spend my blood, sweat and tears in training someone...

NCOs, especially those with time in, usually have the ear of the RSM. The RSM's opinion is taken into consideration. Deciding openly, that you will choose to milk the system is a question of ethics AND leadership potential. "Mission before self"... It is one of the main motivating factors for...

I have to say... Who knew that a thread on dress regs, could be so entertaining?

Son, you are barking up the wrong tree. Bring a lawyer and CBC next time someone counsels you properly for dress and deportment... Fact is, neither would bother to give you the time of day, as counseling for deficiencies is still most certainly allowed in the CF (indeed in most civi workplaces too).

Oh wrong wrong wrong... Walk around with iPod earbuds in your head and I, and folks like me will talk you out of it... We might not give you three weeks of pack drill anymore, but we will not just let one walk about flaunting the rules. Rights do not trump rightful regs.

Not sure I like the term "restrictive"... Sometimes, the RSM, may out of necessity of the day, make something less "restrictive"...  Just nit-picking to be sure. I prefer the term "clarification" or "clarify".
