Michael, Now that I'm back on the left coast, I'll go have a look for your Gravesites in Esquimalt ... I think it's supposed to rain tomorrow though, so if you want clear pictures, it might have to wait until the weekend. Otis

Let me add to George's answer: As a former member of a foreign military, she will not only be required to provide proof of the minimum requirements to join the CF (Age, Citizenship, Education) but she WILL have to provide proof of honourable release from said foreign service (what would happen...

You should be able to return the kit and ask for your release item to be reviewed. A better question is whether or not they're hiring Med techs right now ... best that you go and ask at your local recruiting center.

For the record [and you'll have to forgive me if I defend my staff here] ... Clothing Stores operations in CFB Esquimalt have significantly improved from this example. Now, if only the Army would get their heads out of thier A$$ and recognize that we support Army units too and ALLOW us to...

The Recruiter was confused because that is a VERY old form that we haven't used in the last three years. Don't worry about it, you don't need it ... your other references were used.

Good Day, Up until yesterday, I was a Recruiter, so I can help you ... You can apply online on forces.ca ... that will get your process started without having to call long distance. Once your application has been recieved, you will be contacted and arrangements made to do your processing at...

Go and finish your degree and then you can apply for DEO ... You will NOT be offered ROTP again after you have turned it down and wasted everyone's time the first time ... if you knew you weren't going to accept ACSO, you should have never put it down in the first place. There are thousands of...

Some of the best Mess Kit can be custom made from a Tailor in Vancouver called Claymore clothing ... I bought mine there quite a few years ago now and it's still held up. I know it's more expensive to buy new, but depending on how long you intend your career to be, it could be worth it ...

I voted for ya ... good luck (you were still in 2nd when I voted, but the two leaders were WAY out in front!)

Here's my professional recommendation as a Recruiter ('cause I'm not officially posted out until the 30th) DON'T join the Reserves. If your intention is to become a full-time member of the CF in two years, joining the Reserves right now would be a waste of your time. Use that time instead to...

Did you try going to the courts to get proof that your charges were withdrawn? And did the Recruiting officer actually say that they wouldn't send you at all? Or did he say that they couldn't send you RIGHT NOW? You explanation seems incomplete to me ... If you REALLY want to be an MPO, I...

Hey Tess, it's not sad news for ME ... I want to go back to the fleet. Now I'll start helping Vern answer Supply questions again ...

Good Day all, I realize this may seem, at face value, to be self aggrandizing and self important. I feel however that quite a few people have come to expect my help and experience in answering questions regarding Recruiting and the Recruiting process. So, I wanted to let everyone know that...

Ummm, not even close. Max age for Appl as a DEO MARS officer is 51 I believe. (If the contract for MARS is 9 years, which I think it is, but I don't have the ppwk right here in front of me)
