    General Hillier's Legacy (split from:Top general fights to cut the fat in the Forces)

    I have just finished his book 'Leadership'. I was impressed by how he wove his experience in our Armed Forces into the lessons for young leaders to follow. A good book. My :2c:.  :remembrance:

    Whither the Royal Canadian Legion? Or RCL Withers?

    I remember the JR Mess open at 1600hrs a couple days of the week, and always on Fridays and Saturdays. That was in the late eighties. The RSS staff were our best customers, and us newbies at the time would sit quietly drinking and listen to the chatter for anything juicy for the PT session in...

    MERGED: Depleted uranium (effects, hunger strike, etc.)

    I wish him luck, he will need it. I also thought he was going to drink water with his meds/vitamin supplements as he stated in his earlier statements. I hope he gets all he wishes for! Ubique

    C3 Grounding

    No salutes! What about Rememberance day, Canada day, et al? Thunderflashes? Really? This is a sad day for all gunners. I don't believe there is such a thing as a blank  charge for the 81mm.

    RCMP To Receive C8 Carbines

    I am cool with it. The police in most cities are already outgunned by the criminal elements. These rifles wil hopefully level the playing fields, I pray without a high cost to innocents. :2c:
