In keeping with the non-politically correct tone, It can also be said that France is the only country that has lost the war twice. They lost to the Germans in 1941, switched sides and became Vichy France, then lost to the Allies. ::)

The guy your looking for is Sylvain something or other. I have is name at home, and I'm on task in Gagetown. Suffice to say that everyone involved in Army on Line was royally p****d when at the end of the whole process, SQFT stepped up and said " This is what we are going to do anyway...
I must admit that I've been doing a fair bit of Ghosting on this thread. Not because I'm just interested in watching the discussion (read occasional dog fight), but mainly because it has been fairly educational as well. Everything from "Discband/discard DLR-CLS to getting rid of DRDC" to the...

Your premise is not bad, but the underlying math doesn't take the burning of complex hydrocarbon compounds into account or the fact that the tax isn't based on the amount of carbon contained in the fuel, but rather how much carbon. and related compounds are produced by burning that...
Instructor Assisted Deployments. You do need to do these before you do a solo freefall. It took me around 8. In Gan, you then move on to Buddy jumps. (This was mid late 80's). 9,500 feet was typical. On the way done you when through your deplyment drills a few times then the instructor...
Currently at 289. Best one ever, so far was in Dubrovnik. Same place that they held the World Championships at before the Balkans blew apart. 5 jumps from and AN-12. A flying excuse for learning how to sky drive. Made you want to get out and walk. Fun none the less.
I don't mind the security and the checks. I do wish, as others have stated that there was a little more uniformity in it but what can you do. What does bother me in a big way are the people that work for CATSA.
Going on Ex in the States not so long ago, We were using a comercial Airport, but...
I thought everyone LOVED Jittering Jimmy. >:D Have you ever heard that man on a radio, trying to issue FRAG Orders to a Brigade? :threat: I've have Root canals that weren't that painful. I remember him in Calgary demanding that one of the female MCpl's remove her TTTTTTTTTTrouserrrrrrrrrrrrs...
After mine got reduced to a frisbie, one of the uys turned it into a hood ornament on Snoopy. I still use it, but I have to patch the hole about once every 6 months with a new layer of un tape.
Maybe we should start a separate thread on all the stupid thins we've done on the road to where we...
Vern, you're not saying that a supply tech would willing damage kit. Then again, when I was young and stupid I dropped the ramp of my Queen Mary on one. :-[ Down side was, it was still in my Ruck.
If only I'd I'd had one to give you Vern. These were done a while ago. Mine you, I might submit another abouthe Velcro because it just doesn't seem to hld put with everything else piled on top of it.
For the first UCR submitted, I know it went to them, because a bunch of us that used them for the first time on ROTO 13 were interviewed about them by CLS and ADM (Mat) when we got home to Pet. From anecdotal info it seems a fairly large percentage of us were less than impressed by it. Some...
I don't know about any one else, I only have my TV and my wife's to judge by as far as durability. Hers is fine, but she works in an Orderly Room/Hospital setting and very rarely gets out in the field right now. Mine on the other hand is in a S*** state and I'm on my way to swap it for a new...
