Yup I remember that song and remember getting screwed around. Started in 83 as a YTEP Airframe tech. Showed up on course and we were told when the year was over none of us would remain Airframe techs. Of 25 only 3 passed. The rest of us basically said whats the use. Drink at the A club and sit...

I retired (Ytep) in Feb 2008. They told me the story of waiting 5 to 10 years. I said the heck with it.  Besides it would be really nice if they could have given me my rifle instead ;)

Nope it's not just you.  You hit it about dead on.  My boss is usually 20 minutes late almost everyday.  You would think she would leave 25 minutes early. I would love to take the job at CDA. however I lack the bilingual aspect. The other problem is because of our work ethic i would most...

Yeah my brother is a MCpl. Here Here on missing the uniform sometimes. Where I work as a CR04 indeterminante, there is alot of hostility towards retired military guys double dipping. My new boss hates us and has stated she will not hire a priority if she can get away with it. Making my life...

I was 6 platoon, believe 8339, grad just before xmas 83. Joined as 512 Airfram YTEP and accepted Reg Force as a clerk. hated desk job at that age so remustered to Rad op in 86. Retired in 2008 in Kingston. I believe the age limit was 17 to 25. YTEP was an awesome program to get your foot into...

Im glad I retired when I did, It was bad enough being redesignated a Sig Op 215 and loosing our MOC211. we werent able to make cop jokes anymore. Now being redesignated again.  This is modern progress for you. Next they will amalgamate Infantry into our trade or something along that line, or...

Whats interesting is I know Sherb. We have been talking now for about a year. There is a man with alot of drive and intestinal fortitude. It takes alot of courage to stand up to VA for himself and others who are or are going to become ill. What most people dont realize is that if we dont get...

I have been in the appeal process with VA, since 2002, when I was first refused my pension for cancer. I figured I had been exposed to something in Bosnia or Africa in the late 90s or 2000.  In 2002 I was diagnosed with Hodgekins stage 4B. It took the military almost 7 months to diagnose the...
