Thanks for the responces guys.  I will give those things a shot. About how long did it take for you guys to beat this thing?

I was just curious if there was anyone here that has any experience with Plantar fasciitis.  I was diagnosed with this in my right heel back in November and it just will not go away.  I was told not to do any type of PT that would involve any stress to the foot which has killed my cardio.  Being...

I just read the CANFORGEN and am having a hard time understanding it.  I noticed a reference to IR in the msg... Based on that msg, is IR still an option?

There will be lots of huff and puff about it but in the end little will change.  If anything would have sent things out of control it would have been the sinking of the Chenoan (not sure of spelling). The reality is, it is still in South Korea's interest to continue with the status quo.  As...

A true freemarket would be great but the problem for us is that you have 2 mega providers dominating the industry.  We pay way more for communications services then the Americans or British do. 

Many historians would argue that the notion of Canada being defended by the militia is more myth then fact. As to your other point, I cant see the provinces having the funds to pay and run their own "National Gaurd" type of formation which is what it would take to organize a professional...

I had absolutely zero intent of "beating the guy up" in any way shape or form.  I was merely trying to illustrate the "why" of what was previously mentioned to him so he could understand.  I am not the type to "beat someone up" on these forums, and dont plan on changing that ever.  I think there...

Thats probably true, but its a point to take to heart.  Ships movements are usually classified for a min period of time before releasable.  This is especially true of submarines. Case in point, an adversary who reads these boards is now aware that we have a sub at sea, that sort of information...

If everything else is standard Army does that mean that the shoulder straps are midnight blue?  I did manage to the reference myself, and, just as Blackladder stated, the ref is as follows: 25. Intelligence Branch. Midnight green facings. Silver officers cuff embellishment. Surgeon cuffs...

Thanks!  That makes more sence now.  Looks to me like midnight blue and midnight green appear black at first glance, at least to my eyes anyway.

Hah! Ive been getting spoiled by the new Int Op here that has it all figured out for us :D As for the tailor, she wasnt sure, she is not the person that actually makes the suit.  She takes the measurements and then sends them to a place in Vancouver, so I wont really know until I receive it. ...

Please give me a little more credit then that.  I WAS Navy, and decided that in the end I preferred the army.  Effective yesturday I am now an Army Officer, effective today, I am out $1000 for my Army mess kit. Back to the topic, do you know the color for INT?

Did a search, couldn't find what I was looking for. My question is the following: Do officers wear black slip ons or shoulder boards or something to that effect as their rank insignia on army mess kit?  Insofar as I can remember, I could swear that I saw black shoulder slip on types.  However...

I realize this is a bad place to put this topic, but, I cant think of any place that is a good place for it. Petamocto clear out your inbox so I can send you a PM, preferably before I get in trouble for this post!

Sorry, typo, I meant to ask why he was Embedded?

Why was he embedded in the first place then?

Thats a good point.  I remember on more then one occasion as things popped up here on the west coast where the direction was to inform CMS, though, in all cases we were in direct dialogue with CANCOM.  I think part of the problem is that Comd JTFP is also double hatted as Comd MARPAC. Has this...

So the only experience that carries any weight on this topic comes from someone working in a senior position?  Priceless.. Certainly I havent served in a senior rank or position, most of my 16 years were spent as an NCM, but I have served under more then one CDS and CLS in that timeframe.  My...

I am just as every bit in my lane as you are or anyone else who served while Hillier was the CDS.  You obviously dont agree on my assessment of his tenure as CDS... Fine and dandy, but that is not a lane issue. As for the dot coms, I have seen negative feedback on the concept on these boards...

Ill give you the recruiting side, but, what is the big problem with dot coms?  Have they not streamlined operations?
