      That's a pretty good ploy.       They also say the guy who got the uranium is a known small time smuggler. So how does a small time smuggler easily get hold of weapons grade uranium?? ???       OK, but how did he get the uranium and who gave it to him?? ???       Oh, you don't know...

      If you think BBC are shite disturbing check out Middle East Online article that came out today.  Everyone seems to agree that the Kurds are paramount in a major powerplay. The rest of the article quoted is on link below but take it with a grain of salt...

      Maybe Turkey should be nervous? The Israeli involvement in training Kurd militia is widely disputed but makes perfect sense. Israel is concerned about the mounting threat of Iran's nuclear arms development. What better way to keep an eye on things than assist in the Kurds getting their own...

      This could be another reason for buildup of US forces in Iraq. If Turkey gets involved it will certainly add a new dynamic to the instabilty of the area and more headaches for the US government. For full story read link below. http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/IA24Ak02.html

      We are all covered under Canadian Forces Health plan not Blue Cross. Blue Cross only administrates for us as they have an established system. Unfortunately many civilian facilities do not understand our coverage or the card we carry. That is why there is a number to call on the front of...

      The thing is that the Taliban truly believe that hit and run tactics will succeed in making  NATO leave as it did the former Soviet Union. They tried the head on approach and failed miserably because they are not soldiers. Their tactic is blow a few NATO soldiers up and hype it in the...

    I just read an article from Afghanistan Times describing the new and improved Taliban winter fighting strategy and their intent to retake Kandahar in yet another spring offensive. Since NATO continues to hit them hard I doubt we will see a large Taliban fighting presence in the spring. They...

      If everyone is unhappy with the way the criminal justice system is handling car thieves in Manitoba, or anywhere for that matter, then do something about it. Be proactive and write to your member of parliament or hit the streets and get a petition signed to send to the government. Don't...

  I just read an article (link below) about the international medical and aid worker community using one symbol "Red crystal" to identify themselves. As we know under the Geneva convention civilian humanitarian aid workers and all medical personnel are to display a red cross or crescent to...

    I would love to post the email on this forum but my COC said no. I am sure the PAFFO 1 ASG Edmonton will get the full story out to the general public soon as the originating email was only received 10 Jan .

    An email was forwarded to me today about an injured Royal Marine who was treated by Canadian Forces medical personnel at the Kandahar field hospital in Dec.  In it the sister of the British troop had written an email to PAFFO on her brother's behalf.  Her brother and a few other troops had...

Resolutions? Isn't that the phenomenon when the fluid you expel is directly proportional to the amount of beer you drink?  :cheers:

      St Michael's you and I have worked together before but I do not necessarily agree with you on this topic. I believe the drivers of the bison ambs should have good solid driving experience ie certain amount qualifying hours driving a bison before being deployed into a driver position...

        The Med Tech trade has gone through a lot of transition since I joined over 20yrs ago. All medics now get the Primary Care Paramedic (PCP) qualification as part of their initial training.         Field medics especially are a hot commodity. If you are looking to shine and climb the...

      I stumbled upon an article from Britain which states that the Ministry of Defense there is experimenting with drugs to enhance soldier's performance in combat. Many of the drugs are banned substances used by professional atheletes to build muscle and cardio endurance. They also want to...
