I have all the proof required; the issue is that I was told going to basic before 12 months passed would not be an issue by multiple people in different units. If I would have been told when I asked the clerks at the RC, I would have held off joining until I had my common-law. We are renting...

Background: We moved in together in Dec 2010, I swore in and started basic last October. As she is in school, I am currently paying the majority of our bills (wasn't a problem when I was making more money, it is now as bills are > the income for a single private paying rations and not getting...

Thanks Stacked, it's quite exciting to finally have stuff moving forward. From what my recruiter told me, my chances of getting processed for Sonar Op are slim to none; they already have applications being processed for that trade (hopefully you are one of them) and they will likely offer me one...

Quite, I can read it now :P You should try finding out who your recruiter is (there are specific people assigned to certain letters of the alphabet), and talk to that person ONLY. Make sure to identify yourself every time and let them know exactly what it is you are looking for/trying to do. I...

WALL OF TEXT!! Lack of formatting and sentence structure made my eyes hurt after the first fourteen words.

While New Brunswick may be really nice (I have heard as much, but never been there myself), you may just find that stepping outside your little box and seeing the rest of what our great country has to have to offer is the best thing that has ever happened to you. If I were you, I wouldn't sweat...

FTFY. Also, better things like Afghan detainee junk and Helena Guergis?

You make a very good point. I also couldn't agree more on the power to vote. Voting should not be a right, it is a privilege that responsible citizens of a country can and should choose to exercise. Cons are in no way responsible citizens and therefore shouldn't have that right. @Mellian...

I am split on this one. While I agree absolutely that persons in prison should not receive any sort of pension or income supplement, whether their families deserve it or not is an entirely different issue. I am leaning towards a big no right now but (other than the cost associated) it makes...

A large part of me wishes all of our elected representatives had the balls to say/do stuff like this.

Damn, I knew I was forgetting something tonight. Oh well. Rampage is going to take it fairly easily for sure.

I would just like to clarify that the vast majority of stormtroopers post Episode III, were not clones but simply recruits. They had to be human and fit certain size and height restrictions but only ~ 1/3 (circa A New Hope) were clones from the original Jango Fett DNA.

I did read the original post; I assumed that Patches was asking if switching is possible after being enlisted, so that is the question that I answered. The other question that could have been asked (and the one that you assumed was asked), was if it is possible to switch before being enlisted...

While talking with my CFRC today (only a civvy employed by them though) I was told that it is possible to switch between trades/aspects of the armed forces, although only after your current contract is completed.
