Has anyone heard anything new WRT to the possible CHAPS procurement of 6 D models?

  For starters, having the grip on your wpn is a day and night difference.  After x number of hours on patrol, or humping through grapefields/ wadi's, fatigue of the forward arm (wrist) is almost non existant compared to the wpn without it.  As for durability, in my experience this piece of kit...

If you contact R Nicholls distributors you can get one, I had to fill out US State dept approval forms for mine but as long as your address is a CF address (ie your unit) you should be good to go.  If you need the contact info pm me. Hope this helps. Fraz

Update... Controversial Hercules purchase approved By CP OTTAWA -- The Defence Department's long-awaited and controversial purchase of the newest version of the Hercules transport plane has been approved by the federal Treasury Board, defence sources say. A replacement for the air...

Given that you are a member of the unit and 'living in', remember that your mail should go through your unit as opposed to the shacks. So give them the 3 RCR CFB Pet....  Worked fine for me when I lived in. 

Yes, but won't their CO get a 'coin'? ahem

Agreed to all above posts.  Without a doubt when orders came down from 9er you knew that we were going to be supported from start to finish.  He would fight for us and with us.  A great leader and the finest soldier.  I only hope that his absence from the front line units is temporary.  Pro Patria

  Indeed, this man's interpretation only seems to highlight the majority of the ill informed public's notion of what is 'factual' information as opposed to what is really going on and why.  Furthermore, who can't say that they didn't enjoy going to airshows/ the dog and ponies when they were...

This woman has gleefully chosen the Dutch as the model for how we should adapt our ops and tactics to emulate... Not to steal any of the thunder from the previous posts, but were it not for those 'caveats' the dutch would have stayed on our flanks during Medusa, actually provided close Helo...

Or for that matter LAV's and the new Leopard 2's rolling off it's ramp at KAF...

First of all let me agree with all of the posts above.  The truly sad part is that both Liberals and NDP refuse to understand, that in order for the PRT to operate effectively (reconstruction, aid, all various NGO's, development of economy and ANA/ANP, etc...) you have to secure the areas in...

As a Pte you will be paid as a Pte (1) or Basic for one year then after which you move up to Pte 2 and following that, having 2 years in you will go up to Pte 3 pay scale

Indeed, this Khadr family seems to pop up every few months in the media, whether it was regarding the father who was killed while fighting Pakastani forces, the youngest son whom received special treatment due to his wounds suffered in combat with U.S Forces in Afghanistan.  If anyone recalls...

the RCR's who are going this time are 1 RCR, who haven't had a unit tour since Kosovo(yes Bravo and Charles were gone last year but...), we're sending Duke's and Recce, and if i'm not mistaken 2VP went to bosnia just a little while ago???

Ottawa announced a few weeks ago that the highbury complex was to be closed and sold off, while constructing and rennovating new facilities at Worlesly barracks... perhaps with the new white paper we'll find out if a battalion will come back to London but I highly doubt it...

  Indeed, Kevin B you've hit the nail on the head with that one... In our unit we have in limited terms used the techniques taught to us from the boys at the Hill, and yes to be effective the attacking force must be capable of utilizing combined arms (armour and infantry as well as engineers and...

If anyone has seen this morning's Toronto Sun you might have come across an article by columnist Salim Mansur... Be it an editorial it perhaps sheds light on the true mindset of Muslim Extremists and unfortunately some very influential people in Middle Eastern Governments. What follows...

Hey Mike, when we go back on the 24th I'll help u out with ur lil dilemma... perhaps i'll even help u make the bloody thing, regardless, there's no sense in making a mountain out of a molehill. Hey Yeoman, I feel for ya man, but those lockers ain't gonna guard themselves... Do we have the new...

Sorry KevinB, I just did that to stir up the pot, myself being #1 LMG I'm happily awaiting the moment that I unwrap my new C9 A2... not to mention that I have a soft spot for the C7, although I did get a chance last year to play around with the C8 CQB, that's one nice piece of kit as well...
