    Curiosity and constructive conversation ? Obviously, from my avatar, i'll be getting whatever is new: last, and that's fine (and proper) with me but i'm wondering if this is straight up replacement or as items wear out ? Cheers PV

    Minimalist PT Shoes (Vibram FF, Merrell Gloves, etc) for BMOQ

    I currently own a pair of the Komodo Sports and just recently bought a pair of Merrell Trail Gloves.  I prefer to trail run for my routine when ever possible, the komodo's are great for that as they have super tread on the sole.  They also make a great water shoe if you like to canoe or kayak. ...

    Queen's Diamond Jubilee Super Thread

    If by Cadets, do you mean COATS pers?  As we're the members of the CF, not the Cadets.  We only usually receive one other medal and thats the CD which, i don't personally classify as a gimme medal, maybe you do. Cadets are not authorized to wear CF medals, nor the QDJM. Cheers, PV slight...

    Air Force Forage Cap

    Air Force Forage Cap

    I know this sounds..not quite right but the dress regs that are posted on the Army site are not the latest version. The latest is: (copy and paste) "(Supersedes A-AD-265-000/AG-001 dated 2001-06-15)" and is dated 2011-06-01. The Forage Cap has been removed from the dress regs.  Someone with...
