Jesus, the same thing happened to me and a buddy of mine. Before parade we went down to a nearby pub to grab a bite to eat and have a couple of drinks. After we finish our meal, I go up to pay the bill (which was close to $38.00) only to find out that some nice gentleman paid our bill and tipped...

OK I got a couple (OK their not really mine just found them on the internet): 1.) A lieutenant was out walking one day, and came upon a little boy, playing with a pile of s**t. "Son, what are you doing?" asked the lieutenant. "I'm building an NCO," said the boy. The lieutenant, thinking this...

I just want to drop in and say thank you to paracowboy for this thread and the "advice for FNG's" one, they helped me out allot. Question time: do you recomend running in boots, and what are some good way's to toughen up the feet?

I'll Throw my two cents in: First of all I believe in the Afghan mission, I believe that you cannot have proper reconstruction without first pacifying the insurgents/terrorists that wreak havoc throughout the country. And if we pull out in 2009 then we will leave our allies to bridge the gap...

If Taliban Jack wants to negotiate with the Taliban then he is more than welcome to go over to Afghanistan in person and try to broker a deal with them. ;D ;D

Right sorry about that, I just keep hearing about the Van Doos. God Speed to everyone deploying on Task Force 3-07.

I do think continued troops in Afghanistan are necessary. exactly it is amazing that people do not realize that you cannot have reconstruction without the area first being pacified of insurgents. Because if we pull out in 2009 (Highly unlikely I think) and just send medical and financial aid...

Rest in Peace, your Job is done, time to go home.

MONTREAL — Anti-war protesters will confront Afghanistan-bound troops on Friday in Quebec City as a sign of the tension in Canada's most anti-war province. Organizers of the protest plan a counter-march to oppose what is intended to be a high-profile send-off parade by the Royal 22nd Regiment...

"Getting 12 people hooked on smokes and about 8 people on chew by the end of BMQ/SQ" I know I was one of them you wank... ;D ;D But anyway it's good to see that you are doing good.

Thanks for the quick response guy's. I really appreciate it.  :)

This seems as good place as any to ask... Is it possible for somebody from another brigade group being able to go on the 3-08 Task Force (I'm from 41st Brigade Group). The reason I'm asking is that I have my BIQ in July (That is why I can't get on the 1-08 Group).

Oh Yeah to add: 1.) The weekend before the field ex we were staying up all night getting drunk and watching movies in the rec room and one of the guy's (Lets call him Bloggins) had to go to the washroom but instead of going to the washroom he walks to a window and takes a wizz out of the third...

My roommates told me of something like that I did. That week we had been learning about patrols, and had, naturally, been practising our parade drills with the invisible C7s. So one of the buddies is on weapons sentry, so when he's revived to "patrol the corridors," up I get in my tartan boxers...
