   I agree with Teddy's friend.   Try a class, perhaps a cooking or dance class.   With regards to the rest of your post.... Points 1, 3, and 4 are only problems if you let them be...   Your age???   Don't you ever see or hear of those guys that have wives or girlfriends that significantly...

    Snugpak...  Wiggy's.......  ;)

While on the topic of aftermarket boots, has anyone have any feedback on the Task Force series boots from Lowa?  Sorry, Matt, for the bit of a hijack.

  I think that was his knife story.  X2 for the Cold Steel, although the Harsey Tactical Folder is nice, a little too high speed for most uses.  I think I would cry if I bought it and lost it, too. 

    From the pictures it looked as if the pads are mounted very close to the edge and in some pictures off the 'net they looked even lower.  I was wondering in the gas mask would make too much contact with the low sitting pads and push the mask down or the helmet up.  Thanks for the tips, though.

How well does it work in conjunction with the gas mask?

    Now, what if you made that into a short commercial/film for advertising in the movie theatres?  Maybe some weak explosions and weapons fire in the distance and have the combat equipped troop there in the rubble as the 'hero'.  Would be appealing to a lot of people.

I am aware that the JTF2 does foreign and domestic ops, but I was replying to McG's comment and was wondering if another unit could be stood up?  The both of you Teddy and Infanteer have answered my question, that there are avenues that are used for when the abilities of this unit are needed...

    So should a new unit be formed to undertake high-risk arrests, raids, and rescues, etc on the federal level if the JTF2 is not to be untilized?  Perhaps some type of high-readiness, mobile response team?  Having the JTF2 under the CF for foreign operations and this new unit under CSIS or...

so where does the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) fit in this.  

    Well, why would you have the light on if the area is fully lit?   

Thinking more in depth about it now, there really are too many variables when operating in a military setting.  I'm sure more and better training will come out of recent and future operational experiences.  There cannot be any one way for doing all types of missions that require a dynamic entry...

I got ya' on the OPSEC stuff.  As to those members of 3 RCR, are their skills used while in theatre, if I'm still toeing the line with that question, it's withdrawn.  So I take it that sadly DD's aren't regularly used while on ops...

Perhaps I wasn't more precise in my questioning.   Are there 031 (conventional) operators formally trained by the CF in explosive entry techniques, if not, what is the opinion, by all ranks, on having them?   Or is it seen as being too specialized?   What are the entry tools issued for such...

What is the prescribed method of entry once an entry way is breached?  Are DDs's tossed in and then the team makes entry?  Also, what is the opinion of more 'dynamic' entries such as a member being trained in explosive entry techniques and using the shotgun and ram for weaker interior doors or...

Perhaps the problem goes higher than the recruiting office.  The government doesn't have to invest more money into the military if they don't let anyone in.  I would guess that if another party (more to the right) were in office, many, many more of the people would be getting in.  I believe the...

Kevin, were did you have that vest done up at and what are the specs on it?

hey, on the outdoor life network (OLN) channel, at 9:00pm in ontario time, it's going to be on.   military security experts from the us, uk and canada compete in shooting and fitness.   check it out......   its on tonight (friday)

I wouldn't be getting that black talon knife, if I were you.  There isn't metal at the tip to reinforce it, and it will break off easily if using as a field knife. IMO The black talon is more of a show knife, with very limited abilities.  Tanto points or blades with a wide blade are strongest. ...

230 bucks?   First you paid too much, they're about 90 in the states, and from knifezone.ca about 130 i think.   second, i believe it even says on cold steels website that they don't cover damage like that, and require you to send the blade back to them for re sharpening, i would assume the...
