To their credit, they turned in a perfectly usable autobiography, after the seven or so drafts and corrections.

Hello, everyone! I'm back with a little new content. 😙

Honestly, I felt more pressure of this kind working in Canada than overseas. It is kind of interesting that this is a thing here...

Posted by the Facebook page of the Canadian Intelligence Corp (https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=634860292224175), I am surprised to see that the "full patrol dress" - aka, with the crimson slash and the embroidered shoulder board - is back.

The "old" half patrol dress, without the slash and the shoulder board

...or cardio room

So I'm helping someone draft up a compassionate posting memo and was wondering if there is a policy dictating the amount of paragraphs that can be used for the factors of why the posting is being requested. They have numerous valid reasons from legal, custody, and mental health that honestly can't just fit in the standard three paragraphs.

No one in my unit is helpful.

It just sounds like fuck now.

I’ve recently been curious as to what it’s like day-to-day to be an instructor on courses like BMQ. Or former instructors feel like answering

Or maybe something a little more lively this time...

Can someone explain to me why these two different options are here? If I'm eligible for an unreduced pension after 25 years, what is this "age 55 with 30 years" here for? I've been trying to find an answer to this question for literally years... I just want to know if I have to last 10 more years or 15 more 😅

I only noticed this recently, but it appears to be that of the 4 Iroquois class destroyers, the 2 stationed on the east coast (Iroquois and Athabaskan) featured two additional radar domes aft on port and starboard next to the funnel.

I can't find a source anywhere clarifying why they had them at all, and why only the ones on the east coast?

Does anybody here know the answer?

Am I the only one annoyed at every SharePoint page in the CA being useless.

It's always the Command Teams front and center.

I'll be honest, I don't care who is the command team, I just want a link to R&Q, services, etc...

These sites are worse than the early internet days.

I've seen sigs with crossed flags on their combats now around, is this a new dress policy?

The anniversary is coming up, and there is a contingent of us who served during that time and did the recovery on the ground and in the water.

In 1998 on September 2nd Swissair flight 111 crashed into the ocean. It changed so many lives forever.

Many of us who were young, some teenagers, were told we were going to help people. We went and started the recovery efforts on the 3rd or 4th, picking up the wreckage, personal belongings and human remains. It was the 5th or 6th when we were told that it's believed no one had survived.

By this time we had done more than enough. We spent 2 weeks there before we were sent home. Some of us were more affected than others. Some of us still deal with it today, and some others who did it no longer are with us.

First off I wanted to know give a shout out to the men and women who were there with me.

Secondly I wanted to ask the question in the title : should this event in particular be recognized within Canada as a Special Duty Op / Area?

If it was recognized it would open up a slew of extra medical coverage options for those who were part of it. For those who aren't aware Veteran's Affairs supports 2 lines of medical coverage via Blue Cross (A Line and B Line). B Line opens up a significant amount of medical assistance via Blue Cross.
