Captain Cadbury enters the chat.

Magellan can still make them. Better propellant resulting in it being faster. The low smoke version for helicopters was slightly slower than the regular smoke version. A venturi with twisted strakes in the exhaust that imparted a high rate of spin. Both of these factors made it more accurate...

We had a contract for bread in Eritrea. Awesome bread. Ignore the occasional fly that was baked in, was sterile after all. Best bread.

It wasn't disgusting, but compared to the Gurkha cooks, 16 AA chefs couldn't keep up. Never really saw a chef at a FOB.

I spent six months eating at a British cookhouse in Afghanistan. Breakfast was usually good. I took every other meal at the Gurkha line for four months until they left. The remaining two months were pretty dire. Other deployments where I ate in KAF DFACs had pretty good food.

Recruiter said it was open, go to this link. You went to this link, it says closed. You have two options: 1. Go to the source of the problem. Contact recruiter, email as it is was a Saturday, attach screen shot that shows it is closed. Wait for response. Follow up sometime late next week. 2...

Ingersoll does the foundry work and ships the empty bodies to Quebec. General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GDOTS)(formerly SNC and Canadian Arsenals) makes the energetics, smaller components, and does the load, assemble, and pack (LAP) process. SAA up to .50 and 25mm is also...

We do make the entire assembly. Ingersoll makes the large steel components, GDOTS does the small pieces, energetics, and LAP around Quebec. There are also pyro manufacturers who make smoke cannisters, illum candles and other items. From what I've heard a lot of ammo money is for...

The three main faculty at Medicine Hat College's criminal studies program are: ex-probation officer, ex-military/ex-police, ex-police. So some place still have that mindset. All the instructors in my art and design degree were professional artists or designers at one point during their career.

You are 100% wrong. I voted liberal, hold socially liberal views, and go to every gun show in the Medicine Hat area as well as the regular visits to range. Maybe if you didn't try to constantly piss off people like me life wouldn't be so hard for you.

To add, you can also have premature functioning of shells depending on the filling. The Brits have/had a particular shell that has internal felt pads at the bottom to act as shock absorbers.

Yep ammo is produced in lots, sometimes batched together. You are only allowed to use so many different component lots (say battery, booster, electronics) in a single overall lot. Sometimes it's one component lot, sometimes it's more depending on the exact item. The idea behind this is, if...

My electric leaf blower has done sterling work three times this year. #southeastalberta
