Mike12,
Whew! First of all, your desire is both broad and narrow at the same time. Your desire to do "reconstruction project" type work is honourable on many different levels. However, I must caution you that joining the Canadian Military Engineers (CME) does not mean you will only be doing...
Yup. Nothing to see here. Eyes forward. Rubber-necking just causes unnecessary pile-ups on the 401 (Toronto reference).

Site is running the fast today. In fact, the page downloads are the fastest they have been for the past month. Good job to Mike and others who have been workin' it! :)

Dodger1967,
I think HoM and JM have summed up where I was going quite nicely. For soldiers in the Commonwealth, "black humour" has been used for years to deal with a catasrophic event. It is one method of avoiding an Occupational Stress Injury (OSI). If you look back in the thread, others...

FD,
You know, you're right! I had no idea. I suppose I should have checked here first and listened to Kat like you said. Oh well, you get what you pay for. I don't intend on doing any heavy-duty GPS work. I am hoping it should provide enough accuracy to do Geo-caching....outside....on a...
Zee,
Welcome to Army.ca!
I suppose as an old diver but a new member to Army.ca you are entitled to your rant. It took me a couple of reads to find out what your point was, but I think I get it now. Please allow me to paraphrase you and add my 2 cents.
In summary, you said that Canadian...

p.s. Note: If we change orders too many times and too close to H-hr, the troops get confused and we risk losing the main body, just my 2 cents.
Just bought a Garmin eTrex Summit at Canadian Tire for 1/2 price (~$120). Plan is to do some geo-caching with the kids. I'll report back on how it goes.

Note: was looking for a cheap hobby that involved going outdoors with the kids...I know, I know...geo-caching is borderline...
