    Cenotaph/Memorial Vandalism/Solutions-Laws (merged)

    I don't mean to take away from his offense, as all CF know it doesn't matter how sorry you are you have to still do your time, I just think that the NDP have no credibility to speak on any CF issue at this point

    Cenotaph/Memorial Vandalism/Solutions-Laws (merged)

    Funny how the NDP feels that urinating on the monument is unacceptable but holding a left leaning political demonstration on the another monument is ok. Thank God they aren't running this country.

    2 comments first, it only says "while under Candian control" which doesn't nessecarily mean that if anything did happen it was Canadians second , thankfuly the Liberals are not in power as we would likely lose the PPCLI or the RCR regiment over this.

    Tinnitus

    Keep watch for the development of Meniere's Disease. They don't know the cause but I had plenty of noise exposure with the CF on the range and from the engine noise, and I know have it.  I assume it was your exposure to firing range noise or similar that you damaged your hearing.
