    Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) LdSH(RC)

    Where new guys can go when posted to the Regiment: A & B Sqn are tank squadrons. They are, on paper, mirrors of each other and do exactly what you think. Through their superior mobility and firepower they destroy the enemy. Recce Sqn (D Sqn) is mounted recce for the Brigade. They move around...

    The Army’s Marksmanship Problem

    Where did you get the PAM? As far as I can see, by checking the DIN and the Infantry School's ACIMS page, the old one has not been superseded yet. The reason there has been no fanfare may be because the PAM has been written by the experts but not yet approver by 40 different paper pushers in...

    Machine guns, grenades, ruck marches, digging holes, inspections and other stuff. Maybe manpacks or maybe not, as they are their way out. Maybe the Carl G, they seem to have added it and taken it out of the TP multiple times over the last decade.

    Trying to find Harris 152 attachments

    If you are going to remote the batteries you can get a cable that allows you to plug a manpack battery into a 152. That will give you a tonne of time before you need to swap batteries.

    Employer and the CAF Application

    Integrity is very important in the CAF. We trust our people at their word all the time for a lot of different things.

    Tactical Armoured Patrol Vehicle - RG-31, LAV Coyote, and (partial) G-Wagon Replacement

    I am not a Black Hatter but am in an armoured unit and just left Recce Sqn. Having talked to the guys using this equipment these are some initial impressions: The TAPVs while weighing more than a Coyote and having less wheels are surprising adapt at off road driving. The big fear of them being...

    Do you want to go to 21 EW once you are qualified? If so ask about getting on a Bison course. I am pretty sure we (LdSH (RC), where I am pretty sure you are posted) will be running one shortly. Recce needs to qualify new drivers and the maintainers will need to qualify the new guys that are...
