    Do Combat Engineers do any work with the PRT?

    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...

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    Yup.  Nothing to see here.  Eyes forward.  Rubber-necking just causes unnecessary pile-ups on the 401 (Toronto reference). S6. p.s. Virtual member of the Toronto M&G.  Cloaking device on.  >:D

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    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...

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    Uh-huh, could get ugly real fast!  May need MM to apply bandage to sucking chest wound and Loachman to fly the medevac while fading in and out listening to my fire-team partner Journeyman telling me, "Hang in there diver" while reminiscing about college stories and chickiepoos with the...

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    Heh, I would be happy if none of the pictures get posted.  :-[ Can you spell compromising position?  >:D Had a good time meeting the gang, and like others, put faces behind some of the callsigns.  Thanks Danjanou for organizing. S6. p.s. The weirdos on the subway at 0210 hrs are...

    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...

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    Not fussed.  So long as I can stumble out and get on the TTC relatively easily. i.e. within 200m stumbling distance. S6 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.  S6. Note: was looking for a cheap hobby that involved going outdoors with the kids...I know, I know...geo-caching is borderline...
