How much drill do the Ukrainians do right now?

...such as the RSO in a yellow high-vis vest?

Thank you for your service.

8 years of paid leave as a police officer while waiting for a rape conviction and after a drug trafficking conviction? Glad to see the CAF isn't the only institution that can't quickly cut the cord on its miscreants.

I know. SAIC changed for a bit but is back to its previous form. I'd have to see where the small arms coaching bit migrated to.

No. Back to Basic MG/Basic Anti Armour as separate courses, an ISCC for Cpl to MCpl, and a SAIC for MCpl to Sgt.

Israel always has a unique take on organization. BattleOrder did a nice job in explaining their unit structures. Of note, smaller companies generally preferred due to more C2 nodes.

You could be the guy in the Sig Sqn crypto vault with that handle, or just like Bitcoin....

When the fan version is better than the original.

Never fun - know plenty, including myself, who've taken some sort of cut in moving. I'm wondering, based off the way that the new HA is spread between cities, if this new policy will reduce instances of these big pay drops between postings. Less turbulence will be helpful if it is the case.

This is what benefits can create now. This is what happens when you tell someone in a field unit in Edmonton making PLD and LDA that they are getting posted out - huge drop in pay. This is what you call perverse incentives - when you create something intended to help the system but it ends up...

I don't know....new challenges, new responsibility, different positions.

Fair enough - I'll be interested to see what @Underway 's Google spreadsheet reveals, and if this specific sub-set of the CAF population will be disadvantaged or not by the change in policy.

I used $90k as it was higher than the average annual income across all provinces across Canada, and thus less likely to be vulnerable to hard economic times.

True, and thats a structural thing as the CAF pretty much doesn't do lateral entries. So what are you suggesting? That somebody's entry level salary should be indexed to the age that they joined and their family situation? Yeah, but for pages now you've simply been yelling at the clouds and...

I'm seeing a lot of hypotheticals here. I'm not interested in hypotheticals. I'm looking for real examples of where CAF members, especially the junior ones who aren't making $90k+ a year, are going to be worse off because of the policy change. Is there someone like this? Serious question.

Damn those senior leaders for creating a benefit that advantages the junior ranks at the expense of those who make far more than the average Canadian annual income! Terrible!

When I was a Pte, I couldn't afford a mortgage. That being said, when I was young (as most Ptes are) home ownership wasn't high on the priority list. Should the CAF ensure that "all new members with zero training and expertise are able to afford a mortgage to buy a home?" I know you really...

So what metric do you suggest?

Which ones are those? The ones whose pay scales are not on the internet?
