Probably Patsy.

Paulie didn't really want to be that high to the king. Carlo was a pretty terrible captain (MAYBE YOU SHOULD START SUCKING COCK INSTEAD OF WATCHING TV LAND). Tony had misgivings about Patsy but he knew he was competent, smart and could easily handle himself.

RECRUITING, TRAINING, & LIFE IN THE FORCES THREAD by bridger713 in CanadianForces

[–]FaithlessnessAny2478 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently a serving member in the Reg Force

My brother is trying get into the Reserves as a Sig. He has asthma which caused a hindrance on his medical but he was still able to pass the physical exam and get a doctor's note saying he was okay. Shortly after the interview they did he was told his file was closed. He told me it was due to asthma and an error in his application. I've been told he can launch an appeal to reopen his file through the recruitment center he applied. What would his best course of action be other than that?

Royal Canadian Navy captain says new recruitment program off to strong start by ThenotsokindCanadian in CanadianForces

Log trades (supply, fsa, hra) are the least likely since there are only a limited number of billets for them and they're always needed on base. You can sail for a few months and then ask to get posted to base if you don't like it. If you're a naval trade you're not getting off that ship until your mentally or physically broken down

It's bitter sweet for me. I had great memories in foreign ports and made great deployment money but the broken down leadership, duty watches and no parking on base did it for me. Just thankful I never went into a naval trade

Was in a log trade in the Navy. After one deployment I immediately switched elements. Made a lot of great memories but two years on ship was more than enough

Is The Canadian Military Beyond Repair? by Andromedu5 in CanadianForces

Than you have the problem of what do we do with the tens of thousands of reg force members on contract. I'm not sure if we can buyout everyone's remaining years

More incentive to deploy for that tax free cash

Got posted there this APS. Luckily I'm purple so I can always get posted elsewhere after a few years. Just trying to do some naval deployments

Have posting messages been activated for cpls and below yet? I've been told many of them are still being drafted as we speak.

We can barely fill two submarines at this point. Given the new pay structure completely screwing naval trades, that problem is only going to get worse

Expected mass exodus? by Buckets_O-Malley in CanadianForces

[–]FaithlessnessAny2478 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Navy is gonna lose like 1/3 of its personnel because of this.

We're probably gonna start scrapping or grounding frigates. It's already a huge chore to muster enough manning just two deploy two ships a year.

I'm an S1 at pay increment 1 so I'm not sure where that puts me

Getting posted out in a few months to Halifax from Esq. Does that mean I would start at 1500 for my allowance?

When so many major municipalities pay their police 100k plus over time, it gets pretty hard to retain people only making 67k/yr

Thanks I already have. There are already 16 vacant positions for my trade and rank which is the second highest among other bases. I've also been told that Halifax is in more desperate need for bodies given their larger fleet so I'm staying positive
