    CADPAT/Tan/OD Gear, Pouches and Rucks

    I have a ton of military and tactical pouches for sale. These are not cheap airsoft knock offs, all of the items are the real deal made by reputable dealers such as Tac Tailor, CP Gear, HSGI and ICE Tactical. The majority of the pouches are in CADPAT, with some others in Tan or Coyote and a...

    What manner of medals are these?

    As D&B (amongst a few others) pointed out this soldier did indeed earn all of these medals in addition to his wings. At 50 years old DS is still one of the fittest soldiers in my Platoon. He brings a wealth of experience and maturity to the rifle company and punches well above his weight in all...

    MARPAT ILBE Rucksack

    I was out on the SRR for a few years, when I got back in in 07 I got sized for the new ruck and was told that it would be issued soon. 6 years later I've still not had it issued, in the meantime I've used my old 64 bag...but it's reached the end of it's life. Recently I was told that the new...

    The "Wanting To Join Another Military" Thread- Them To Us- Us To Them

    There may be a bit more info for you over on ARRSE, but it would be from the point of view of UK Forces members looking to transfer. I've definitely read the posts on both the OZ and Kiwi threads where advice is being provided by Brits who havemade the jump. Be carefull..... ARRSE isn't as...

    PRes Recruiting in BC and AB

    The poster that stated that RCMP Mbrs cannot be MP's was spot on! Myself and another RCMP Mbr lobbied for many years and were successful in 06/07 with having DND and the RCMP amend their policies regarding RCMP Mbrs serving in the PRes. THe RCMP Act states that you cannot hold executive powers...

    Field Expedient = Do what it takes to get the job done

    Yakima 94 Mortar Course I was #1 when the #2 dropped a bomb and my ear defenders were up on the top of my head on the right side......Tinitus is exactly what happens, a high pitched whine for about 2 days. Never happened again..much like grabbing a hot barrel you only do it once! Doesn't look...

    Reserves with firefighting

    With a career in Emergency Services it is much easier to maintain a PRes career, if the soldier has managed to undertake a lot of his PRes training before they establish the civilian side. The majority of those in Emergency Services that are successfull in the PRes (Including both RSM's of the...

    Army Reserve taking the budget hit? - National Post

    Yeah that would do it! We are quite Emergency Services heavy in BC as well, with cops, firemen and other peace officers such as sheriffs and BSO's rounding it out. Fortunately most are senior enough on the job that they are in non rotating shift positions. As you point out, the majority of our...

    Army Reserve taking the budget hit? - National Post

    OZ which units are going on EX with numbers like that? I fully agree with some of the posts here concerning Bn Comd staff and PRes infantry units. I know that for many this will be considered heresy.....but I think we need to re-org our MO Infantry Bn's into Coy sized organizations and have one...

    Working as an NATO-ISAF contractor

    I know the Cdn doing this job right now. He's moving on to greener pastures that will alow him to spend more time at home. I was wondering when or if  it would be posted. He was doing the job as a CF member in 2011 and applied for the job prior to returning home....he literally came home for 3...

    How are RCMP rookies received?

    Postings are all based on the needs of the Force AT THE TIME! One week a Division can be closed for cadets and then the next week they may take a wack of cadets from the very next Troop. This happened when I was about to graduate, K Div (Alberta) was closed and the Troop right after me sent 5...

    Relevance and Usefullness of Police Foundations?

    I have to agree with Brihard and his advice. I've been a LEO for 13 years, I think you'd be a more competitive applicant with a tech diploma,financial certificate or trade behind you. If you want to add relevant policing experience I would suggest getting involved in a volunteer program with the...

    Veterans Transition Netwrok

    I was part of the initial Veterans Transition Program run out of UBC back in 1997. It's still run by Dr's Marv Westwood, David Kuhl and Tim Black. Without being evangelistic about it, it was a program that changed life for me and my 6 buddies whom I went through it with. We all served together...
