    How to deal with people in clothing stores etc.

    Good day, Just hoping to get some insight from those of you who work in clothing stores or supply jobs. It's been over 7 months since I joined, and in that time I have still not been issued a set of GP boots. I emailed the clothing stores and they ordered them, claiming it would be 4-6 weeks...

    I believe he's saying that he has several separate injuries, the separate disability values of which add up to more a total of more than 100%.

    The Great Gun Control Debate

    I'd be interested to know how they even classify automatic weapons. With all the misinformation it wouldn't surprise me if firearms like the AR-15 and Classic Green were grouped into automatic weapons. As an aside, a few years back I was watching a documentary by CBC advocating gun control. To...

    The Great Gun Control Debate

    This is such bull****. I'd like to see a single documented case when the Classic Green was used in any sort of commission of a crime with more effective killing power than say an SKS.

    Are you notified if you are deemed unfit for military service or not recruited?

    In my case I was notified. I had to get some paperwork filled out by my family doctor, and they sent me a letter when Ottawa decided that the paperwork was too damning for me to continue my application.

    OFFICIAL MEN'S OLYMPIC HOCKEY THREAD

    I honestly think Lu is one of the only goaltenders that would be genuinely happy to see Price get the starting position. He's already got his medal and I think he's happy to see Canada get a new bona fide starter in Price.

    OFFICIAL MEN'S OLYMPIC HOCKEY THREAD

    Maybe it was the fact that I had stayed up all night playing NHL 14 in preparation for the game and as a result was far too tired to consider it exciting, but I found the game lacking in excitement. On another note, having been only watching the Oilers it's remarkable to see teams that actually...

    Armour regiments and what do they offer.

    Thanks. I only ask because if I do decide to try for a CT, I'd love to move out west (Edmonton, LdSH), but I'm not sure whether I'd want to be in a tank squadron as opposed to recce.

    Armour regiments and what do they offer.

    Apologies if this is the wrong thread to be asking, but do PRes Armoured Crewmen automatically get put into a Recce element if they CT to the Reg Force since Reservists get no training on tanks?

    Fun fact: for $22 you can sit behind the bench at an Islanders game. For $50 you can coach the team for a period.

    OFFICIAL MEN'S OLYMPIC HOCKEY THREAD

    I don't know if you guys have already heard, but the GM of the Islanders already issued a statement condemning the IIHF and Olympic committee for exactly that. I believe he said something about how the IIHF should be reimbursing the Islanders season tickets holders.

    I totally respect Finland as a great hockey team, with incredible goaltending depth, but Latvia's goalie is an AHL goalie and most of their skaters aren't even in the AHL, against Canada, which has a team made up of all top tier NHLers, it's a little concerning.

    Two CF members arrested in Petawawa over Cpl Bloggins Facebook page

    I had no idea it was as bad as outlined in the videos. Disgusting.

    Off that point, the goaltending this year has been absolutely phenomenal, both men's and women's hockey.

    I gotta say, I'm nervous going into the semis against USA. Kessel and JvR have been lighting it up and we've been struggling to score. First Finland now Latvia?

    Berets and How to Form Them

    What are the logistik ones? The one I was issued had lots of material and was quite thick, and it had a sweatband that was vinyl made to look like leather. Then the other one I use primarily now, which I kept from when I was in cadets, has the nylon sweatband and has less, thinner material. Are...

    How often can I work as a reservist ?

    No problem, keep in mind that this is just my unit, yours may be different so don't take whatever I say to be the final word. I know some units don't even allow troops to parade until they finish BMQ.

    How often can I work as a reservist ?

    I'm not sure how it works for other units, but at my unit there are taskings passed down from RHQ and you can volunteer for those taskings. However, some of them are only available to trained soldiers, others are GD (General Duty) that pretty much anyone can do. These can vary from helping set...
