My Uncle John lost his medals from world war two we had to talk to veterans affairs to get a replacement set sent. I believe it was $110 for the five basic medals (FG Star 39 Star, CVSM,War Medal, Defence medal) and after some negotiations they sent us his Dieppe clasp for free. If you go to...

Sorry, huge stumped. just one more clue... please? :-\

I thought it was a great movie. certainly not the origanal, but it's nice to see a new interpretatiosn. No real way to compare it. Gene Wilder was god becasue of the seriousness he added to the otherwise crazy factory, and Johnny Depp was good 'cause he's just so darn funny. The Ompa Loompas...

My all time favorite book/movie: There He goes, one of Gods own prototypes. Some high powered mutant not even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, too rare to die. Make him chase you. He will follow. also, is frankies quote from Highlander?

I hadn't considered the safety of one diver, and that makes huge sense. Like I said these are things I was told and by the sounds of it from some fairly unreliable sources. thanks for the info.

Just out of curiosity what do you mean a dive accident? I know originally they had a program in Patricia Bay, British Columbia, and it was cancelled. But the way it was explained to me was that there would probably be an age restriction (IE 16+) for this new program. I have never dived in the...

Thiis might be a bit out of place, but I would like to know how one goes about recomending a person for a medal or commendation. Today I witnessed a fellow memeber of the  CF help save the life of hurt civilian during a cadet sail function.  I was quite impressed withhis performance , especially...

I have heard of CIC taking ship and shallow water diving cources through the CF. how would I go about doing that If I were interested? we have application formas for CIC specific cources only. any info would be appreciated

Cool. Thanks for the input.

I am wondering if there are other CF courses open to CIC outside of main CIC training, example dive,parachutist or even trades training. Thanks

Interesting. But what about  officer professional military education offered through RMC? Acceptable?
