A big welcome back to 100 Squadron. Fair skies and kind winds!

Agreed. The sooner the first steel is cut on the CSCs, the better.

For the Reserves, an independent RCA battery exists because the higher ups don't want to be bothered with setting up or maintaining a regimental headquarters due to whatever reason. Example: 20 Field Battery RCA in Lethbridge used to be part of 18 Field Artillery Regiment RCA, but keeping the...

Oh, swell! So since Comd CA is now A/CDS, does that mean the CDS will ever come back if he's proven innocent?

Honestly, governments should get into the habit of breaking down the annual cost of things. $17B over twenty years is $850M a year. Have then say, "We're going to be spending approximately 850 million dollars a year for the next twenty years employing X number of people to prepare fifteen...

Wouldn't it be cheaper to get some non-ASW versions of the Cyclones for cargo purposes?

Isolating at the barracks (residence) now.

That's another possibility

That definitely has my vote.  Would be nice for the name Haida to be recycled along with the others.

Soon as I saw "extendable" in the system title, I thought immediately of the old Sea Sparrow launching systems on the 280s pre-rebuild.

Deepest condolences from one former member of the Lincoln and Welland Regiment to our brothers in the Royal Regiment for their loss.
