    Send an Anti-War Zucchini-Gram to CAN Def Min?

    Wow. What logic. Whoever this "war minister" is, they will most likely throw out these zucchinis. I've emailed them with Sgt Schultz's question "Why couldn't they send these Zucchinis to Afghanistan?" since I'd love an answer. I won't hold my breath for a response though.

    Canada buys Husky, Buffalo & Cougar for Afghanistan (Where's the Meerkat?)

    Glad to know the driver was okay. Glad we have these. Better to lose the front end of a Husky which is easily replaced then half a RG-31 and maybe those inside.

    Close Air Support in the CF: Bring back something like the CF-5 or introduce something with props?

    For filling a CAS and provide air security, I know the conversation was more than a year back, would we be able to lease some Panavia Tornado IDS? From what I remember as an interested civy it had good survivability, a full array of close air support tools and can provide protective air defense...

    Second CC-177 operational

    Is it just me, or did that seem pretty quick compared to receiving the first CC-177? Regardless, it's still a beauty!

    Your Favorite Military Video Game

    I have a crappy computer, but my favourite right now is Battlefield Vietnam because I collect Vietnam gear. The good: helicopters, booby traps, use of sights when using mortars and arty, great terrain, fast paced action. The bad: AI isn't too great, on my computer I can only handle 8 guys on a...

    Tactical medicine and Safety Pins

    I have seen safety pins handing off the folding flap on US surgical sets, I had no idea why, but this could be it.

    Speech from Throne Highlights: Security

    Regarding security, it sounds great. The big question is will it go through? What will Dion do? If we hit the polls, I know who I'm voting for.

    Highway of Heroes Highway Signs Stolen!

    haha thanks for lightning the mood GAP, drunk logic may be a decent excuse if there was no intent to do harm to the memory of our fallen or to send a political message.

    Troops caught in Taliban trap

    two great articles. I really hope somehow our government will let our troops finish the job. Its sad to think that some politicians rather be re-elected if it means their countries troops have die in vain. Lets finish the job.

    Highway(s) of Heroes - Merged Thread

    Hey, I was away all weekend at an airsoft game and getting a small taste of what some of you have been through. Humping 40lbs of gear, being ambushed and dodging pyro grenades brings a whole world of respect for what our troops experience in combat while being in the civilian world. Everyone...
