The South Korean incident, helped make the decision.

A tank. Painted in winter colours. I don’t know what it is. That’s why I need my canmil peeps.

Where are my #canmiltwitter #canmilsky people at? I miss the banter and general info posts. Tanks a lot!

Another AOC starts tomorrow!

Super pumped to meet my new syndicate and get started. I hope the students are as fired up right now as I am!

Having been one of the first to pre-order yet one of the last to finish @charlottedl.bsky.social’s 'The Ones We Let Down', I'm glad that I finally did so. I'm struck by her candid analysis of the leadership failures & the systemic issues that hindered progress.

#CanMilSky #ReadToLead

In these hallowed halls where operations are born,
The air buzzes with ideas, from night till morn.
Here, where history and innovation intertwine,
The students will learn to operationally shine.

The bag doesn’t care.

Light sandbag, higher volume, workout.

#CanMilSky #TrainFightWin

The course isn’t over yet, but today was picture day!

Just a couple of days of domestic operations lectures, course reports and a mess dinner to go until this one is truly complete.

Proud of how far we have all come over the last few months.

#CanMilSky #AOC #CACSC

Key advice from our current student Brigade G5 to the plans team:

-Stay calm
-Stay analytical
-Stay focused on the future

#CanMilSky #CACSC #AOC #TrainFightWin

This #AOC is clearly approaching the end (although still quite a few days of FINAL DRIVE remaining)…

We’re running dangerously low on Superfine Staedtlers 😬

The Canadian Army in Afghanistan The War in Afghanistan is unlike any conflict that Canada has ever been involved in. The duration of the war generated continual stresses on the Army and put soldiers, units, and leaders at all level...

Really glad that #CACSC’s #LineOfSight platform is able to be the home of the “Canadian Army in Afghanistan” volumes for all to read.

Super important that we all have access to our history & are able to learn from it.

Kicked off the simulated AOC brigade road move this morning. Student commanders were at the wheel & several interesting tactical scenarios unfolded for them.

Again, many great learning moments throughout the day.

#CACSC #AOC #CanMilSky

Exciting day for us at #CACSC as the first student Brigade Commanders were assigned & began receiving the first briefs from their staffs for Brigade Exercise 2 of #AOC

It has been great seeing them continue to hone their tactical planning skills!

Santa Clause parade in Kingston!

#CanMilSky #Kingston

Our first brigade exercise of this #AOC is complete.

Lots of planning, executing, and most importantly learning occurred.

Looking forward to the next one starting next week!

#CanMilSky #CACSC #wargaming

We spent yesterday attriting our simulated enemy. Today we will destroy them in our main defensive area.

It has been awesome to see our students learn how to concurrently fight a battle and plan the next step. They are really coming along.

AOC Brigade Exercise 1 kicked off this morning.

We are officially doing the most fun part of the course.

Already deep into the plan wargame.

Spent a great deferred statutory holiday at the aquarium with my 2 year old.

I hope all of you that had today off also enjoyed it.

Feeling saltier than normal this Remembrance Day. Hard to articulate, part of me hates to see the huge gap between how strongly Canadians feel about RD, and how little they care about CAF or veterans issues the rest of the year (judging the absence of either in political issues). Just me? #CanMilSky

Getting back to my infantry roots this afternoon.

Curls and sweeping.

#sundayvibes #CanMilSky

Changed out my 4Div and 2 CMBG badges for CADTC just in time for Remembrance Day.

Glad I was able to get it done. I didn’t want to be breaking out my sewing kit on November 10th 🪡

#CanMilSky

Started off the Brigade Module of #AOC this week with a Brigade crossing exercise.

Today the students conducted a Combined Arms Rehearsal for the mission. They have come a long way since their initial CARs early in the course.

#CACSC #CanMilSky

Read, Write and Lead The Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS), General Wayne Eyre was recently interviewed by the founder of From the Green Notebook (FTGN), Joe Byerly, to share his leadership lessons learned through his care...

I wrote a facilitated PD session based on @CDS_Canada_CEMD’s interview on the @FTGNotebook podcast with @jbyerly81

If you’re interested in exploring the themes of the episode during a PD session in your unit - check it out!

Another day of Estimate Exam grading underway.

This stack of overlays is a representation of what my brain looks like right now 🧠🔥

#CanMilSky #IYKYK #CACSC #TheEstimate #AOC

Fun day getting into our first simulated exercise. Today, the students gave orders to and conducted a Combined Arms Rehearsal with the role players acting as their sub-unit commanders.

Tomorrow they will fight their simulated operation!

#CanMilSky #CACSC #AOC

And now, let the grading begin 😢

It’s going to be a long week and weekend, but we’ll get it done 💪

#CanMilSky #AOC #CACSC #TheEstimate

The estimate exam is underway!

Orders dropped at 0800 and now the students have 8hrs to conduct their analysis.

I’m looking forward to see what they produce. I’m not looking forward to the hours of grading ahead of me, starting tonight.
