    Post-deployment leave - Navy

    Thank you kindly, Sir. I wasn't able to completely figure out what category of leave would that be (disembarkation?) however it seems like it definitely isn't a 2 month leave. If someone could clarify further, that would be much appreciated.

    Marine Systems Engineering Officer Civilian Opportunities

    Thank you, sir. I was more interested in cruise or merchant vessel engineer officer positions, but I may just retire with the CAF (provided I get in in the first place). It's good to have options. Do you know about the education requirements, would a non-engineering MSc degree satisfy the...

    Paid Education for serving members

    Wonderful opportunities that normally would not be available to many. Now, when it comes to being admitted to a Medical school - that may be a whole different challenge. I truly appreciate you sharing this, dapaterson :)

    That sounds interesting, does this mean that an officer could remuster to Medical Officer for example without having medical background?
