    Engineer Recon: Can somebody explain

    Well, not just of engineer interest... Things like sources of water and other resources also figure in there but also other things of importance to the tactical commander: where can fr and en forces manoeuvre, where should we put our obstacles for greater effect, etc. These are considered all...

    Government to go to common IT systems across all departments

    Growing pains; but seriously, it's mostly the same ppl that did it before - maybe is more about whose cost centre it comes out of.

    "Zurich to open drive-in sex boxes"

    In Panama and perhaps other places in Latin America they call them the "pushbutton" or just the push. They are more like a motel than an industrial zone - most are decorated quite gaudy with tons of neon, etc. http://www.panama-guide.com/article.php/2005051017022242...

    Packing a Ruck

    I like music while working out at the gym but out on the roads and trails I never wear earphones: 2 things: I'm paranoid - someone is always trying to sneak up on me - and safety, a car, bike, dog, bear or your GF's ex could be approaching and you don't hear them bc you got Justin Bieber on your...

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    Agree with George; however, if we HAVE to live with a civ pattern domestically (at least in the reserves), something similar to what FEE042 identified would have been more useful than the current behemoth. The disadvantages of the current offering (we haven't received our SEV  due to comms...

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    Good point, we all like to criticize PWGSC, DND, "the man", whatever, when it is actually our own guys that write the requirements. So we need to start with competent career managers, that would send at least competent ppl to DLR positions and require them to have the proper experience and trg...

    Does being found guilty of a summary offence affect an OT to CBRN Op?

    That brought up a question and perhaps someone here can enlighten me. Security clearance: do the members of CJIRU require TS? I would imagine so. Does DND give S or TS to pers with a current offence (no pardon granted)? hope not - well, depending on the offence and circumstances perhaps. I do...

    Liberal Party of Canada Leadership

    What about his Ex-Military person:http://www.ottawacitizen.com/story_print.html?id=7535779&sponsor Anyone here heard of her? On another topic. For as much as I think Mr Garneau has the intellectual ability to be a great leader (how far did that get Mr Ignatieff nationally?), I think he lacks...

    Which reservist trades have training closest to regular force training?

    Absolutely right and it is seen countless times that a reg F, newly promoted, new CC in a Res  unit becomes overwhelmed very quickly.  We have been lucky in my unit that the last few clerks posted to the unit have been very quick learners and very capable (and wiling to work almost 14hr days for...

    Shining boots after an ex

    I've told my guys that if any of them shows up with spit-shined combat boots, I will scuff them myself - then I'll send them out to the back compound to sort out, re-roll and count the rolls of concertina wire we hold. CHIMO!

    U.S. 2012 Election

    He must have started writing it way back when he incurred the wrath of the Tea Party - I think he is surprised that the popular vote was this close.

    Where are the Engineers?

    This is not an "Official" site; maybe most of them don't even know about this site; and maybe they do but are competent, self assured people that don't require validation from the public ;-) Don't know what the intake number for this year is but I bet, if you get in and do your BMOQ and CAP...

    The Defence Budget [superthread]

    MCG, what is “tactical infrastructure” ? Great  ideas, from you and dapaterson;  can't argue against any of them. does anyone have a DND or gov wide figure for licensing costs of MS Office, Outlook and servers? I think shared services will be better positioned to handle a conversion as opposed...

    427 Squadron in Hamilton

    But Hamilton is way different than Windsor. Geographically, the escarpment can channel and focus the sound. But more importantly is the fact that at least some of the population in the area very weary of military, police or anything that can be considered state... One of the last bastions of the...
