    Naval Combat Dress (NCD) uniform [Merged]

    One of the guys onboard who is doing the trial said the stuff is too big.  They are using that computer system for sizing and all of his stuff isn't working for size.  Another guys says he likes it.  Betterfit to the uniform. I have the boots.  Hate them, too heavy and clunky.  Only good thing...

    Not a rumor anymore.  NCMs are loaded now.

    I'm glad that the NCDs don't turn green or purple anymore when they fade out.

    So, then what about the 3 years I wore CADPAT in ON?  I wasn't crawling in the mud everyday.  How about the guys working at CEFCOM?  The old CFJHQ in Kingston? The directive in the ref is aimed at pers in Esquimalt / Halifax, not at sailors working in other establishments.  Also the directive...

    Personal experience here and I still have the leftovers from my posting as a hard sea trade to a inland posting.  CADPAT as dress of the day.

    Not necessarily only in the field.  If the unit is to wear CADPAT as dress of the day then the sailors will wear CADPAT with the element color nametag and slipons.  Sailors who are ashore in Halifax and Esquimalt at Navy shore positions continue to wear Naval dress.

    First female commander takes control of warship

    This thread was started to state the fact that a female is now the CO of a major warship in our Navy.  I'm sure long before when this was started that eyebrows were lifted and I'm sure when she was XO of VDQ that eyebrows were lifted and folks were watching her to see how she does it. I mean...

    Agree on the coveralls and zippered boots but of course ya can't have zippers, it takes away from the money allocated for cardigan sweaters.

    HMCS Iroquois' woes (merged)

    More like a whirlpool, you start getting sucked down into it, then get spun out to the edges, AKA ashore or CPF and then the suction starts again and you head back into the middle.  Never ends.

    HMCS Iroquois' woes (merged)

    OK, how is the NavDDS going to replace a CCS?  I still prefer parts of the 280 CCS over the 330 CCS.  Maybe they could use better space in the new CCS as opposed to all that empty area around the scope.

    On the hunt for drawings for 3D modeling

    See, we can have civvie ships. This was an early job of Halifax.  The CH124 is being rebuilt also. The scale on the 57MM gun explosion has to be fixed up some.  You can see a smoke trail going up from the VLSS.  This is what happens when probes come too close.  The density of smoke is due...

    On the hunt for drawings for 3D modeling

    Any one have an idea where I might be able to come up some drawings, profile and top down of the old 280, TRUMP, Provider and Protecteur? We used the drawing from my Know Your Ship book to get the CPF done.  It was an experiment and need better drawings for it.  I see the guys who build the...

    I see it as being optional.  I have never seen anything on we have to wear a tshirt.  I have yet to be issued one other than the speed greys from Cornwallis.

    T-shirts are optional since they aren't issued yet other than to boarding team and if a sailor is doing heavy work, the NCD shirt stays on.  The jacket comes off but that is usually it.

    Can NCI Ops still become SACs?

    Jobs is coming back to us as I understand.  MARS are out of the job and NCMs are going to be filling the training slots for the upcoming courses if they don't get MARS.

    More than likely that our DIN site sucks and really nothing interesting there.  The army / air force sites seem to be updated more on a regular basis.

    New here. Question while dragging this up from the depths...anyone know where to find out any info about the N.I.C.E. project?  Stupid name I know.  I have seen the rain suit (jacket) and that's about it.  I have heard about the new NCDs with perma-crease cause ya know we have to have creases. ...
