    Out-of-shape soldiers a 'national threat'

    That's a shame you feel that way but that is my opinion based on experience. Don't lose sleep over it. Perhaps you could offer something from your occupational or elemental point of view on the introduction and maintenance of a culture of fitness from recruitment to retirement.

    Out-of-shape soldiers a 'national threat'

    Hey, I said that there were some pitfalls associated with the concept. It has been my experience that those who came from the Army were more well rounded characters...and I'm using the term characters loosely. >:D Of the 41 CWOs in my branch, a rather high percentage had some form of Army...

    Out-of-shape soldiers a 'national threat'

    A lot of interesting thoughts here and I can appreciated the point of view from the tech on the floor up to and especially inclusive of the CO's thoughts. I will not rehash the failing of CFPAS, PT scoring or that dirty little French fact but wish to address the foundation of a culture of...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

I would really enjoying watching you attempt a 'MacGyver' in a tough, but not life threatening, situation. Please leave Penny at home when you try it though.... Edit: Holy...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    I truly detest the use of the word moreover to start a sentence. Most normal folks think those who start a sentence with the word moreover are, in all probability, a high fallutin butthead. You may wish to find somewhere else to discuss your IQ and how it correlates to stuff. And hey Sheldon...

    Dogs can attack with Impunity at CFB Borden?

    Interesting. Hope your dog is OK. Who said you must purchase a dog tag? And from whom must the dog tag be purchased? Is this a Base Standing Order?

    The Brookfield Megathread

    How true and I found that out when we were moving from a location in Alberta to Yellowknife. The IRP 'consultant', and I use that term in the absolute loosest term of the word, said we were not entitled to storage of F&E at the Queens expense due to the size of available housing. I said "oh...

    Knowing one of the principals of that prgram, I am surprised that they even made it to 18 positions.

    Management training

    The Middle Management program at St Jean is a different course altogether. One of my buddies took it and said it was the best course he ever had. I think that the Seneca College program was part of the (going from memory here) Canadian Forces Community College Network from the...
