    The Former CFB Chilliwack - Whats Happening

    Don't know specifically. I saw the Boathouse and other buildings have been removed from the rafting area. Again I don't know if OpsEE still belongs to DND or not. I think I know what I'll be doing this summer. Time for another "Fun-Filled Family Vacation® "!  ;D

    The Former CFB Chilliwack - Whats Happening

    I understood it was going to be the old BSup/BMaint, directly across from Wadi al Batin (ex 1CER). Correction: The track is located on what was previously the POL/CADC Compound and the Rigging Area. They also took a corner of the old Area 8. You can see it clearly on Google Earth. It's...

    Christmas Gift Wrapping Tips for Men - A little late, but...hey...

    Wrapping paper would be nice, but I can never remember the wrapping until it's too late, so that means the tubes are the only things left. You can get anything into a tube. I knew all those hours spent watching McGyver weren't a complete waste! I'd like to take this opportunity to wish...

    "Taliban Jack" T-Shirt Designs?

    I know what you're saying. I was given a "Republic of Western Canada" hat and it caused the same reaction.

    Vehicle names

    One of our Sect Comd's was named Jim and somewhat boyish looking. His APC Dozer was invariably christened "The Culture Carrier", hence "Boy Jimmy and the Culture Carriers".

    Oh good God, it's started....

    Now, if I could only figure out the Lotto winning number. A murder of crows... A pod of whales... A pack of dogs... A Baldwin of Actor-vists?

    "Canadian diamonds are no better than conflict diamonds from Africa."

    I wonder which actor-vist will adopt this cause?

    Weapons that don't exist but should

    >:D A weapon that used to exist but changed: NunBarrys Because we all know that before Chuck Norris was born, the martial arts weapons with two pieces of wood connected by a chain were called NunBarrys. No one ever did find out what happened to Barry.  I'll stop with the Chuck now...

    Weapons that don't exist but should

    At the risk of re-starting something horrible: Chuck Norris puts the "laughter" in "manslaughter".

    IEDs or Booby Traps?!

    Take that definition and apply it to say, a car bomb. See where the confusion is? The textbook descriptions are stepping on each other. So would an IED be a sub-group of the Explosive type of BT? Red_Five: I don't have access to the DIN, can you cut and paste a def?

    IEDs or Booby Traps?!

    The question we're trying to get a handle on is this: as opposed to the "who does what, where".

    Hazard Allowance

    I don't think stats would fully support an argument for the granting of Hazard pay (or Spec pay) to Sappers for simply handling explosives. All stats would show is what "has been" and what "is". It may indicate a trend, but cannot illuminate the potential hazard one would face in combination...

    Hazard Allowance

    Over say the last 20 years? Of the three, blasting a Crater Group has been more lethal for Engineers. I think the line is fine where it is. Bonus payments may be the way to go. For example: meet the requirements for CET, earn an incentive bonus. Yes, DND will subsidize the costs to earn it, but...
