Our adversaries can't hack Teams/D365 if it is constantly down.

Also, turn the radios down. If everyone stopped defaulting every radio to high power they would have a smaller electromagnetic foot print. Back on topic: we need to stop "forgetting" that the reserves exist. When we buy kit for the reg force we need to buy enough for the reserves too. And...

Yes, but they could have anticipated a question like that. It made the news coverage, as did the Herc. Would it not be reasonable to have someone from the RCAF on hand to answer potential questions? Just like the Premier brought a couple of SMEs to give details on things she wasn't read up on.

I think you are giving them way too much credit. I doubt they had a plan to steal blanks so they could use them as part of some intimidation scheme. I think they took them because the opportunity presented itself, not because they needed or even wanted them.

The guys that were about to become Support Div briefing the team at 2 Div as they handed over all the reserve units: "Surprised this hasn't hit the news yet, probably will soon. Anyways, your problem now." What a bullet to dodge.

Ya, but you have stores magic.

We want a made in Canada solution, Twin Otters with door gunners.

I have a Ford Lightning and am very happy with it. Based on my experience with it, I think EVs are great and most people would be happy to own one. There are a bunch of things they do better than ICE vehicles. However, there are some things ICE vehicles are better suited for. I think most...

Hello, I'm a Sig Op. The training is going to focus on a lot of Army specific stuff so there isn't really much you can PLAR. Don't despair though, the types of education and certs you mentioned will make you a better Sig Op. The intial trades training will introduce you to Army communications...

I didn't look it up. But I assume the ship was named after the town and the town was named after the guy. So, the ship was named after the guy as a second order effect.

Valdes? Didn't that guy already have a famous (infamous) ship off the West coast named after him? Maybe best to avoid that name.
