Guys, it’s not exactly like buying your commission in the NC military.
NC could start sending application to NDU (National Defense University) at Marshall Building, Ft Leslie McNair. It would be much lower cost. 70-80 grand vs. $500,000.
What are some of the book titles they need to read at the NC Officers Academy? What’s the estimate of the number of pages they might read in a year?
Interesting approach.

They read a 20 volume book series called only in french as the Doctrines et procédures défensives et offensives nationales des nouvelles Forces armées canadiennes. this book describes the various Procedures and Doctrines that Officers from all branches of the NCAF must follow in order to achieve success in any military operation against an enemy's conventional forces like the EE etc. .

Oh Scheisse!! Those guys are gonna die… might get wiped out!!
.
I’m sure the soldiers are lining up to pay half a million to read 20 volumes of ‘Doctrines et procédures défensives et offensives nationales des nouvelles Forces armées canadiennes’.
.
If you unit of 8 infantry are in fire pits are attacked be 20 guys on your right flank, what do you do? What if it 16 guys attacking from the front and right oblique what do you do? What’s different? That should be in the 20 volumes somewhere.
Please explain difference soft diplomacy and hard diplomacy? What are implications, uses, SWAT: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats?
.SCHEISSE!! Gonna die.

The RCAF would like to introduce to you our brand new Tank hunter, the CA-9 Grey Wolf. she is to placed in service in No 417 Combat Support Squadron 4 Wing Cold Lake. However due to the scarcity of the GAU/8, the CA-9s will use the 40mm L60 Bofors as its main gun.

Isn't the L60 a WW2 anti-aircraft gun? Surely there is a mistake.

Originally they where, however they have been used by the AC-130 gunships to attack ground targets, plus NC does have a stockpile of L60s so it would make sense to use them in the Anti-Tank role, in lieu of the rare GAU/8.

If 8 infantry are attacked by 20 guys. Then you know something went horribly wrong. Best thing to do is withdraw from your position and call for reinforcements in order to outnumber them and retake the position from them at a later date, or if one member of this 8 happens to be a ground based attache for the RCAF or Fleet Air Arm, that person can call down a Air Strike since only he has the training to carry that out.

Good thing the NC never went up against the soviets in the cold war. It would have been difficult to watch your flank crumble as the NC pulled back and did not hold the line from a larger force. If you are in a defensive position, you should be able to handle a larger force. Not sure how much larger, but cutting and running does not always seem like the best decision.. especially because they are not going to just let you get up and leave. You might have to actually stand and fight because running might result in more losses than staying. Just my two cents.

If 16 men attack from the front with right oblique, those 8 men will still have to withdraw and wait for reinforcements in order to deal with it, both situations when you look at it, to be honest unfortunately. Its a forlorn hope for those poor 8 men to try to stand and fight. NC soldiers are trained to fight, yes. But not while outnumbered, as they lose that determination rather quickly.

For this, the officer put up $500,000 to go a school, read a lengthy 20 volume treatise to learn how to fight, apply tactics, operations, command, strategy, etc. Should have different tactics when attack by a group from an oblique vs a smaller group from the front, etc. It should all be laid out. Why have a school, much less such an expensive school. Then only to get out of the foxholes to run.

Ohh … god bless you.

Wow, the NC is going to be doing a lot of running in its future. That is if, the enemy allows you to get up and run from them. Your assuming that your 8 men will be able to disengage from a fire fight and with draw and the enemy will allow that to happen. Its scary to think that you don't have enough faith in your men to think they could possibly hold position. Not in every case, but in any case. I am not saying you need to stand and fight in every case, but sometimes you have no choice. I will leave it at that.

Shelia at WSE-XY Action News reporting that the NC military is falling apart if it hasn’t done so already. Anytime their forces in a local situation are outnumbered they will abandon their positions, even their prepared fighting positions to run away. If 30 Zulus armed with Iklwa and Assegai spears attacked 15 NC soldiers dug in, the NC would run. This is not the leadership needed! Disaster after military disaster has been the result.
There was a situation the NC didn’t like a scenario complaining about creative writing. Now we know why, they can’t write and they run away. The northern most country in the America’s needs a another new government. Had 5 in the last few years. Need a real change!! Not sure if this administration could successfully lead a group out of a paper bag.
. The people of Karmanaskis need to come back to lead this great country back to what it should be.

TBH the problem of Fighting while outnumbered has long been a mystery that the NCAF has been trying to solve for a long time now. So far we could not find a solution to add to the books at the Academy. Any tips or ideas you can give us would be very helpful. We are not Falling apart, We are just learning.
