There are lots of opportunities for reservists to go on tours, especially filling "any trade" positions. Just check out the REO lists. In the past it wasn't uncomon for reservists to go from tour to tour to tour. Reservists are excellent for plug and play because regiments don't have to worry about manning, meriting, succession planning, career courses, or any of that jazz.Just objectively not true. There’s 25 percent manning for reservists on deployment. Do that math. I’d love to have seen the justification for putting a reservist on basic sniper and how that cell took it lol.
33 Brigade got a position on a BSniper course in Petawawa and a reservist filled it. He did really well too, don't believe anyone cared. Normally it's the immature insecure reg force soldiers who get their hackles up over reservists on courses.
