Nope the bridge is part of the pension, always has been. All part of the funding formula.

I think the Al one were stamped, not sure about the steel ones.

Mine issued in 88 were same a the ones I had on release in 16 except 88 were aluminium and my last two pairs were steel. Oh, and 88 had SIN not SN.

Sure they did. I left the public service a year before the strike and got instructions on how to vote. Still get emails from them.

Ingersoll Machine and Tool. Makes most of our shell bodies. Now IMT Precision.

RP, but yeah. We had to retrain our convoy drivers who kept a few smoke in the cab. Normal screening they would just drop on contact side to make a long screen. Good recipe for tyre fires doing that with RP bursting. Also surprised top cover gunners.

There have been vehicles with significant ballistic weapons and guided missiles for 50 years that carry infantry. It should not be a specialist skill for the infantry to use them.

Are they broken, if not everything is fine. If they are, fix them, everything fine. No issues.

Better now than in the last few days.

13km range on 120mm mortars...how is that capability useful to Canadian infantry battalion. 2.5x what an 81 gives. Lol (for extra credibility apparently)

They are nowhere held right now as they are a potentiality on paper. Thinking like this is why we have 3 symmetrical brigade with low manning.

Yep, it's not the missile that needs maintenance, although it has to work at extreme temps. Everything that makes it go pfft, pop, whoosh is the problem. The hydraulics to erect the launcher need to work at -60, plus all the other bits. If they have a range of 1-2k, then they may be in...

Having worked with wooden rounds, the inspection requirements vary. They can include environmental data loggers that have to be checked weekly or monthly. These can log temperature, humidity, and/or vibration. That data collected depends on the weapon and the environment. Hot can mean...

Enjoy it!

Why? If lack of time to post, that's fine. Any other reason is trolling.

Wrong. Last update from BATUS Comd, reduced and pivoting to stuff like drone experimentation. https://medicinehatnews.com/news/local-news/2025/03/15/batus-to-change-with-times-but-staying-put/

Both. Use your life experience to help rein in youthful excess and poor judgement. Realize that an 18 year old can thrash their body a lot more and bounce back quickly compared to a 36 year old. You only get one body and your clock has been running twice as long.

Those are actually green houses in Redcliff, just outside Medicine Hat. There are more in Medicine Hat and just outside along Highway 3 (Big Marble Farms if you ever see that on packaging). In Redcliff there is also a coop business, Redhat, that packages local veggies for around the country...

Things are better.

In case this is a serious question: It's probably a good idea for the governor of the BoC to be aware of financial threats to Canada.
