How does one affix one's hatbadge?

Nevermind the boss, I STILL feel a particular urge sometimes to Halt! -2-3-1! then salute when I approach a water fountain! :warstory:  (Cornwallis CRSE 7836.)

The first 36 seconds of this is priceless. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG23bVpw65o&feature=player_embedded Found in this article on Cracked.com: http://www.cracked.com/article_19253_7-legendary-acts-petty-revenge.html

I ship computers and eledtronics and FedEx has always been my go-to solution.  Customs brokerage is included in the shipping rate and they rarely lose anything. You can get a quote at their website: http://www.fedex.com/ca_english/ but you need an account to prepare the shipment online.  Once...

I'm curious.  Does she now have to satisfy 72 virgins?

The latest from Jack Layton.  An article in the Globe and Mail.

Yup, know exactly what you mean.  We were never allowed to actually work while wearing "work dress"  Had to change in to combats for that.  (Then we'd have a parade.)  ;D

Jim, you're probably refering to this.  (First pic on the page.) I kinda liked our work dress.  (Last pic on page.) Last line from the first link:   :rofl:

@ recceguy: Zing!  ;D Further to my last, and again back in the day... Which were, by the way, the late 70's - early 80's.  Back then, your average guy sported acres of feather-cut, blow-dried, heavily-sprayed, (probably dyed,) curling-ironed, saloned and permed tonsorial ellegance.  To which...

WRT the mask... Back in my day, beards were only seen on the Pioneers (R.I.P.), certain wives, and on those poor souls who had such bad acne that shaving was nearly suicidal.  Even then, not all the Pioneers wore beards.  Unofficial SOP was that beard-wearers would tote some Vaseline® or...

Worst thing I have ever seen. 1.  That towel was not properly Brasso-stained.  (Obviously he never puts it to its proper use.) 2.  No proper "two-three" counts between movements.  Lousy drill. 3.  Was not done on his barracks box while kneeling on a perfectly polished floor. Pathetic.

I hope this story has legs.  BZ to the young man. Quote: 'Dude, you have no Qur'an!'  8)

[off topic] :warstory: Oh,"Down Home" isn't too difficult to learn, back in the day in London, the whole battalion spoke it fluently.  Even those that weren't from Down Home.  So fluently in fact, I seem to remember one spectacular dressing-down because the subject had answered, "Yes b'y" to a...

If you see it coming from the other direction, does it turn into a break dancing kid?

My personal fave for fast, deadly and beautiful. http://www.airforce.forces.gc.ca/v2/equip/hst/freefight-eng.asp The blurb that goes with this photo: Loved having these fly over, rattling the windows when I was a kid in Cold Lake. You may also recognize it as the bad guy in the movie "Top...

This might fit in here. From the Globe & Mail. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/asia-pacific/canadian-afghan-sweep-in-panjwaii-uncovers-ied-caches-militants/article1618094/ (I still wish they would learn to capitalize the word "The".)  Never pass a fault.  ;D
