    C7A2 Opinions ??

    I'll chime in and also discuss my CAFSAC experience of not cleaning weapons. Only tidied them up once and we repeatedly discussed the fact that units seems to have an obsession with how spotless weapons should be. Who in the military hasn't returned a slightly dirty weapon to QM and had the...

    Redress of Grievance – Mega thread [MERGED]

    When I got charged and repatriated one of the first things my higher up did was send me to mental health to make sure it wasn't related to any type of PTSD. I was told I had "unresolved grief" but that I knew what I was up to.

    Improved Combat Uniform

    Update: My office has taken to my ICU with open arms. Four of us stood in the hallway the other day and ridiculed the "old shirters". I have since noticed that the leg pockets near the ankle have PEN HOLDERS!!  As well, they are a great place to store your sunglasses. I blouse my pants with...

    Wearing Uniform in Public (merged)

    Remember that in uniform you represent the military you so proudly joined. Would you rather: a. be seen in uniform dressed correctly ONCE you are taught how to maintain and wear it properly or; b. wearing it incorrectly, badly reflecting on the CAF as a whole and possibly getting yourself in...

    Velcro is a brand name, you're talking about "hook and loop" fasteners.

    Scorpion, AVGP Cougar, other light AFV alternatives and Cold War tanks of Canada (From: TAPV thread)

    But no batteries for that light sabre because the civilian contractor we hired to deliver them is on strike.

    Improved Combat Uniform

    This just in: After much prodding by my chain of command I attempted to roll up the sleeves on my ICU. I had to remove the pen from the sleeve and stick it LOOSE in the chest pocket (CF98 just waiting to happen) but I don't think they look too bad. Now, I need some really cool patches to...

    Improved Combat Uniform

    I have finally been issued one set of the ICU. I will be picking up my second set today. The arm velcro protectors are an interesting addition and very stiff. I don't understand their purpose as we will only be issued "one flag and rank tab per soldier, not per uniform" so I have no clue what...

    Walts, posers & wannabes (merged)

    Strike up a conversation. Ask him what unit he was with. Ask him where he deployed in Afghanistan. Ask him what awesome cool qualifications he has because it "interests" you... Report back here.

    PMQ's Basement

    I framed a room in the basement of my PMQ in Gagetown. After the fire inspectors came in to a friend's PMQ and made him take down a walled room in his basement I never bothered continuing with my project. I believe fire code prevents it. Your idea od using curtains to make a "room" might be...
