    The War in Ukraine

    "Zelensky Knew about the June 1 operation when he was in the oval office being berated by Trump and Vance. Does that change the way you see what happened? YouTube" Zelensky probably didn't say anything suspecting Trump or one of his team would run with the info to Putin. "'NO CARDS' Taunt...

    British Columbia NDP Majority Government 2024-(no later than) 2029

    On top of that, Eby disappeared from the PM/Premiers meeting to attend a trade meeting in Asia. Thus doesn't, in his "mind" take the responsibility for BC's push back on pipelines. The trade meeting could have been easily postponed for a week or so. Why the voters of BC could vote for such dumb...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Curiously, or not, the announcement nor a search could ascertain the number of CG's being purchased as others have asked. Nothing about purchasing new ammo types. Queue disappointment. Purchased only enough for the troops in Latvia plus a few for maintainers. The Canadian way of procurement.

    The CAF Post Trump

    Back in 1962, it was the Young Soldier Training Plan (YSTP) for the Militia. Your service number was i.e. H817400YS. During the high Winter unemployment of the Diefenbaker years there was a military training program focusing on National Survival training. Gave the unemployed an option for a wage.

    AOR Replacement & the Joint Support Ship (Merged Threads)

    You joke. If you had a STEN in your vehicle, it would probably go off when dismounting, jam when needed and miss the target unless you were at remarkably close range. Second World War Vets said the best way to clear a room was to throw the STEN in and duck. The Sterling SMG C1 was a huge...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Along this line, occasionally meet people who have a son/daughter etc who are in the military. None, none know the Regiment they are in, let alone what element. Or officer/NCM. They know where they live, and that's it. A case in point, a specialist MD at the local hospital has a son in the...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    In a 2 year period we lost most of our Cl B clerks as well as a few Cl A. Was at 17 Wing during a BDF exercise. Saw one, then two, then three etc of our former Clks kitted out as BDF. Asked why, they all said since they were formally Army, they were tasked (as well as others).

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Played this game before. The eqpt would U/S on the scheduled weekend. Additionally, the PRes i.e. Vehs tasked out from the then RegF FTX would always be returned without their EIS (and always no tarps/ripped), or returned very late due to maintenance priority of the Reg F (as it should be). 17...
