    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    in 2009, when I made the CT/OT request, I was an inf corporal.  Over the last five years I attended courses and exercises, received my commission, and have been promoted to second lieutenant then lieutenant.  Reg Log O training is not equivalent to the res course, so that would have to be...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    I don't see how an OT and CT at the same time is significantly different, though I am Log O trade qualified in the reserves.  To me the main issue is a move from Res to Reg.  My main gripe is that I initiated the process at some point in 2009, shortly before starting this thread. I received...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    That's my situation, though I'm told my odds are better now than when I originally showed some interest.  imo the transfer process is broken, considering they are possibly choosing untrained civilians off the street over trained and operationally experienced members attempting to CT.  But then...

    Foreign Service on MPRR

    Can service with a NATO army, including op tours and courses done while a member of the foreign army, be included in my MPRR?  I've already been given equivalency for many of the courses and have permission to wear medals earned but anyone looking only at my MPRR would see a very dull service...

    Joining UK Armed Forces

    Ok old thread I know.  However if GrenadierGuard is still around he should ask, ahem, the individual at the CGG who served with British Forces.  He's got the answers...failing that send me a PM and I'll answer all your questions (or are you the guy I chatted with last year outside the clothing...

    Res Offr transfer to CIC

    I'm talking rebadging CIC and working at the junior level at a local Cadet corps.  Not COATS.  I'm not worried about keeping or losing rank really.

    Res Offr transfer to CIC

    Ok, so let's say, entirely hypothetically, a serving reserve commissioned officer should want to transfer to the CIC.  What is the process?  Is it a transfer through the system like to any other trade or is it a release and re-enrolment scenario?  I'm being vague because I wouldn't want to upset...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    Considering I haven't been to the BPSO yet, could I specify other trades I would consider in addition to LOG O?  DMCA was in touch but, like last time, didn't really have much to say.  It is hard to plan things when I don't know where I stand.  I don't have access to the DIN, does anyone know...

    Calgary family negotiates "no homework" agreement with school

    This homework usefulness debate is nothing new.  I remember when, many moons ago (the mid-1980s), I was in elementary school.  Even then I recall the average working family complaining to the school about the two hours of homework every single night.  It sounds a little much, but if you have a...

    Logistics Officer - Sea [Merged]

    Ok here goes.  I know little to nothing about what a Navy Log Officer is all about.  If there are any of you out there (I know I know, its the army.ca site!) could you please enlighten me.  I had previously ruled it out but I am (maybe) coming around to the idea. 1.  What are the primary...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    For those who are going through the CT process, or thinking of it, here is an update on my stuation.  Nothing.  Absolutely nothing!  Nobody has been in touch until I nagged very recently, and even then they had nothing to say.  It has been 8 months and I am reliably told that my wait could...

    Army = My life

    It has been over ten years since I did the tests but I think they're fairly generic psychometric tests.  I recommend searching for psychometric test prep books at your local book store or on-line.  I remember preparing for a particularly tough psychometric test after bombing it the first time. ...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    Thanks both.  The form is completed and send--very simple!  The guidance I've received agrees that the wait is about a year (i.e. it happens when it happens, very quick for some but between 9-15 months for ncm to regular officer). What sort of confirmation do I receive that they have the...

    PRes NCM to Regular Logistics Officer -- Some Questions

    I am about to initiate a career move from being a Reservist NCM to potentially a Log O.  I have passed up the relevant memo and everyone in my chain is happy enough about my move.  The problem is that I am not sure what the proper process is so that the whole thing goes smoothly and without...
