What about tying an actual yellow ribbon around the pole?

While you are between courses, you are placed on a PAT (Personell awaiting training) Platoon.  They will find some way to employ you while you wait for your next course to start.  It's hard to really predict how long you'll have to wait.  I've never been on a PAT Platoon personally, but I've...

I'm seeing this too.  Who is this reporter?

1) No.  You can apply to remuster.  It's quite common. 2) It's definitely better to have the support of family and friends.  Have you really thought seriously about it?  If so, all you can do is ask that they are respectful and supportive of your decision. 3) All your training is included in...

Aurora #165 I'd love to see you there if you could make it.

I would have liked to have seen Bill Graham as defence critic.  He was a fairly good defence minister during the previous government.

Wonderful.  Just another nail in the coffin for alcohol privileges on ship. It is disgusting.  It's disgusting that grown men can binge drink, and act worse than 16 year-olds at a high school party! For anyone who has been to a foreign Port, you know that there is always some jerk-off ready to...

That's an interesting theory.

http://www.delta-optimist.com/issues07/011207/news/011207nn1.html From the local newspaper of my home town. He wouldn't be the first person in the world to tell a BS story and get a few free drinks at a bar, what's really disturbing is the dinner and money he recieved. It's good to see that...

How's Dion's Shatner impression? KHAN! KHHHAAANNN!!!

"Freemasons for Dummies" I'm not kidding.  It's a very informative book, and I read it when I was seeking information.

Not just a no, but a huge NO...  :(

That looks like a Lee Enfield to me.

When I was on my Artillery course in the reserves, we were turning in our weapons for before weekend leave.  I asked the Mbdr if we could wear our uniforms home.  His answer was "They say there's no such thing as a stupid question, but this one is pretty close" or something like that.  Everyone...

I'm going for my fellowcraft on Jan 25th.  I'm really looking foward to it.

You're profile says you're 27.  Unless you're married or have any kids, there isn't really anyone you have to justify your decision to.  Like what everyone else is saying, just tell them the truth and they should be supportive.  At the very least they'll respect your decision.

Yes I did.  My post wasn't really in response to yours, but my thoughts on the whole situation.

I don't really agree with him being fired for not signing the flag.  It's not even clear if he's actually against the mission.  I don't think it's right that he's branded as being unpatriotic like it's some sort of witch-hunt.

I've been aboard the Picton Castle.  She was in Fiji while I was there on the HMCS Winnipeg.  We spent most of our port visit just hanging out with the crew, climbing the mast of the Picton Castle, or showing them the Winnipeg. Laura would not have been on board at the time though.  Chances are...
