    7 killed in U.S. military helicopter crash

    Rest in Peace Marines. Forgive my lack of knowledge, but I'm not too familiar with air operations.  How exactly does a collision occur between 2 helicopters? Isn't there a lot of airspace for manoeuvrability?

    Verification of Former Service (VFS) [Merged]

    I didn't ask them too much about it as it didn't pertain to me but I do believe it refers more to unskilled applicants.  But again, I could be wrong, secondchance said he spoke to CFNRC and they said 6 months so I could be wrong.

    Verification of Former Service (VFS) [Merged]

    Unless things have changed since April 11, I believe it is not a 6 month waiting period but 24 months as per the recruiting staff at CFRC Det Barrie.  If I recall correctly, because of the large number of applicants, a directive was passed down 08 APR 11 stating members need to be out of service...

    CF Hair Regulations - superthread [MERGED]

    Hair can't touch your collar or ears.  During BMQ they'll ask you if you want a 1 or a 2. Those are your options.  Take what you can get.

    DMAS 001 (ENGLISH 1) Dr David Tilson Seems relatively easy so far.  All that has been done so far is a quiz on language and communication, things like the parts of speech and spelling.  I will admit its slightly confusing at times knowing the whole noun, pronoun, subject, predicate, etc.  But...

    Lots of assault packs. Plate carrier. All O.B.O.

    I've used a Condor 3 Day Pack before.  It was good brand new, but after about 3 months the seams were starting to stretch/tear.  By a year, some of the straps had broken clean off.  I wasn't overloading the pack either, just moderate use for camping or to and from school, etc.  YMMV
