Speaking of economy, price increases are starting to hurt the Manufacturing sector real bad. Our metal supplier, Bothwell Steel is increasing their prices at the end of May because steel prices are going up again. The fuel surcharge on delivery has gone up twice in the last six months. Our...

Civilian Input - I use Wiley X goggles myself on the range, and at work as a machinist. They're terrific and saved my eyes on three occasions that made my heart skip a beat. I figured if they're strong enough to stop IED shrapnel they're strong enough to stop a chunk of solid carbide that was...

Why is it these folks are always demanding something? Instead of asking, proposing or lobbying they demand it there way. I guess they never got the hand book on how to avoid being overtly rude in their statements. G2G for PM in the next election.

I quote your quote and bring you another quote about the lovely Korean bible thumpers. It's hard to get bible thumpers who enter a country under the radar to sign waivers.  :brickwall: An absurd act like this should put you on a no rescue list. I wouldn't want a Soldier from any country...

I did that way back in grade 6. Bring in an item, explain its history and the basic mechanics of how it works. I just had to show the teacher how it was defused. Pretty easy to see since they had large holes drilled through the bottom

The suggestion of going to the UH-1Y from the Bell 412/CH-146 wasn't really based on engine types, take off weight, or range. I was thinking more along the lines (Which I should of elaborated) an upgrade of air frames, advanced electronic warfare self protection suite, FLIR package and an...

Someone needs to tell O'Conner that if he buys the Bell AH-1W Super Cobra (Or Zulu Cobra if the composite four bladed rotor system and T700-GE-401 engines makes him giddy[if they're in production by the time ottawa is ready to buy])  he can replace the Griffons with UH-1Y Venom which have an 84%...

I've been bit in the arse by the Toronto Star for reprinting my words in their news paper awhile back. Nothing like having the police pay a visit to me on the job with suddle hints of obstruction charges. We're in the time now where wether or not the information is correct is not the issue to...

Baltar never tested himself. It was Sharon first, then Col. Tigh's wife, then Adama, so on so fourth. No where did they ever mention giving the test to Baltar, since its inconceivable that a Cylon would make a Cylon detecting test, right? An interesting point is Baltar asked Caprica while...

Ah thats Jeremy Clarkson from Topgear. Brilliant man in his own right, with two doctorates in engineering. I wish two engineering degree's could get me in on that stuff. I'd get'em if it did.

If the UN security counsel goes soft of NK, what kind of message will that send to Iran then? If they dont put thier foot down on this I think things will get more interesting in the ME as time rolls on.

Another couple articles and you mods will need your own AA chat group.  :-*

What kind of journalism is that? He just cut and paste anything that meets his fancy and collected a paycheck off of it. Well hey, at least we all know that if any of us needs a bit of cash on the side, we can all freelance by rewriting what people say here on army.ca just like the Bill Taylor.

So I guess this means I cant ship a 60 of Crown Royal to some lucky trooper then?

Just teach kids that 25.4mm is 1". All is well. It was lots of fun going through college having to double up on all my work since Prof's wanted every print in Metric and Imp. Good ol' 25.4. I have not seen metric since I finished college two years ago. Any one know what most of a Material Techs...
