    C7 Serial Number

    I lead a modification for the upcoming game Half-Life 2. We are going to feature some Canadian weapon models and want to include as much detail as possible. For the C7 model, the skinner is Dutch and also can‘t find detailed photos of the C7 on the left side to see a proper serial number...

    military medals you have received

    Cadet medals sometimes don‘t mean anything. More of a political thing than what one would think. This may not be the case for your corps, but in my old corps and many others I have seen, it was certainly the case. 11 years until my CD (hopefully)! :p

    Infantry MOC Training (Res)

    Michael, have you had time to find the correct CTP since you posted the last one? I am doing my Infantry course later this month at Meaford and curious to what exactly is on it. Thanks for your time and effort!

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    I joined Cadets when I was 13. I have always been interested in the Army and Cadets wasn‘t enough for me. So, in January of last year (right after my 16th birthday on the 5th) I went to the Recruiting Center and applied. That summer I was off to Meaford for my BMQ and SQ. This summer I am...

    Military History Textbook for High School

    As a high school student, I completely agree with not only just a textbook, but a course on Canada‘s Military History. In Grade 11 (which I just completed), there are 3 history courses: 20th Century World History (College Course), Ancient History (College/University Course), and American...

    Pathfinder

    Well, in theory, wouldn‘t Pathfinders have been much more common during the days of the Airborne Regiment since they probably relied on them more than any other unit. But, of course, I‘m just a reserve private ;) Recce41, would you mind going into any further detail of the contents of your...

    Individual Meal Pack (IMP) [Merged]

    My preference is Sausage & Hash Browns and any Pasta ones (Lasagna, Beef Ravioli). Never had anything with Ham Steak in it, never want to!

    C8 for the Infantry

    Hi, geez I haven‘t posted here in a while, but something has been on my mind since then. In many photos of the PPCLI in Afghanistan, a lot of the soldiers are using the C8. Why is it that some do, some don‘t. Is it solely based on preference? There is a great mix of C7A1, C7, C7 w/M203...

    Soldier Qualification Location

    So, is the BMQ and SQ courses exactly the same for reserves and regs? BMQ does C7, NBCD, Military Law, etc. SQ does C9, C6, Carl G, Grenades, Offensive/Defensive, etc. And they are both 4 weeks?

    Soldier Qualification Location

    I wouldn‘t know for the regs, but my SQ course was at Meaford this past summer for 4 weeks. Also, question on a related note: I am planning to transfer to the regs in a couple of years (once I finish high school) and I heard that you have to do a lot of the courses over again. Which ones in...
