http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/story/2013/07/07/calgary-stampede-parachuter-injured.html The usual terrible CBC reporting doesn't specifically say, but it sounds like injured is a SkyHawk. Let's hope for a speedy and full recovery.

So I just logged on to Logistik Unicorp because I figured it was about time to order my fur hat when I saw that an army DEU parka is being fielded.  I thought this would be great and it would eliminate how terrible it looks when army members are out and about sporting their CADPAT jacket with...

If you are referring to a 24 roadside suspension for exceeding a provincial legal alcohol limit (Blood alcohol over 40 mg% or 50 mg% depending on the province), in most provinces, there is likely no offence committed or charge, but an administative driver's license suspension would be issued. ...

I hope the member has a speedy recovery.  Good on the other members and the medics on scene.  It sounds like they saved his life.  :salute:

To answer your question, X-mo, for any remusters to MP, whether from regular force or reserve, the educational requirement is: - two full credit college/university courses that relate to policing, or - a two year law/security diploma I recently OT'ed to MP from another trade with 2 and a half...

I know a number of municipal police members who are reserve MP.  I don't see any reason since the change of the QR&O's why an RCMP couldn't become unbadged, reserve MP.  I would like to hear what comes from the CFPM on this issue and what justification is behind it.

The soldiers that I saw wearing the stripe were Reg F EME candidates and were well in their 20's.  To me, it looks like this is just something that carries on the history of the apprentice.

I learn something new everyday.  Thanks  :salute:

So I found out today that the 2LT's that I thought I had been saluting for the past two weeks have actually been unqualified Ptes.  This morning, I was walking down the sidewalk in Borden near PRETC and I saw someone walking toward me wearing an EME capbadge.  As he got closer, I saw a single...

If this is to be used as a training tool to teach people how to properly perform CPR, it seems kind of redundant.  Measuring the depth of compressions is something that many CPR training dummies already do.  I know that a number of the mannequins that I have used make a clicking sound if the...

This thread should be locked for even questioning Timmies!  I'll always be loyal/addicted to my Tim Hortons.  :salute:

Agill, from what I understand, what goes on in the MPAC is supposed to be kept hush hush by the candidates.  If there is anything that I am allowed to talk about, then for sure I'd be happy to let you know what goes on, but I think they you quiet about it. I'm applying for an NCM trade, so I...

Earlier yet!  I'll be paying Borden a visit on 26 Feb 07.  Serial 1 starts on 27 Feb and Serial 2 is on 03 Mar.  Exciting!  :D

Yes, it's the fancy way of saying OD.
