Way back during one of the many Army.ca discussions about the MGS I floated the idea of a "Super Cougar" (horrible name, I know). Basically I was proposing that the 100 Cougars still in stocks be refurbished as per the Grizzly DLIR/WLAV LE and that the turret be upgraded. The turret upgrade...

I'm sorry but this kind of stuff drove me nuts when I was with the Seaforths! If you can't be bothered to parade with the unit, turn in your kit and ID and make room for someone who'll actually put the effort in. I was a full-time university student who had to ride the bus for an hour each way...

Regarding the fleshing out of the CS Coys - remember that those PYs still exist in the army. The Pnr, Mor and AA Pls were chopped so their PYs could be reassigned to CMTC and the "Command Support Battalions". Anyone seen one of the latter lately? Besides, as we all know, the CF is expanding by...

Instructor at Glorious Pakistani Jihad Suicide Bomber Madrassa for Differently-Abled Martyrs: "Now pay close attention to my demonstration as I'm only going to show you this once..." MG

I'm in BC on leave amigo. The "items" you require were sent back to Pet via UAB so I'll be picking them up around mid October. Sorry for the delay in getting them back to you. MG

Sweet, I talked to my girlfriend about getting a Glock and a carbine and she said "Yeah sure!" Not the answer I was expecting! Anyway, once I get settled in Pet I plan on looking into the Glock first. MG

Gee COBRA-6, what's the Bottle Route range?  >:D MG

Hahahahaha. Right, prevent the Taliban from moving from Afghanistan, to Pakistan. Because, as we all know, there are no Taliban in Pakistan and Quetta is not their base. Sorry about the sarcasm but maybe Pakistan should look at seriously rooting out the Taliban in the NWFP and Balochistan...

I vaguely remember Capt Park! I was in 9 Platoon, C Coy (which I only know because I checked my t-shirt). MG

Not even close to a done deal there monster. The CDS has made reference to the purchase of a "Big Honking Ship" with amphib-like capabilities. Also the SCTF "project" has begun to look at options for this BHS. If you have access to the DIN, go to the CID and look at the SRB presentation for the...

We cancelled OUR MGS purchase. Or, more accurately, we have asked permission to cancel our MGS purchase. The US put the MGS into Low Rate Initial Production a while back and still fully intend to field the beast. As for the US SBCT ORBAT, I was under the impression that each Coy would have 3...

Damn straight. Let's get some fightin' soundin' names for our ships! Lakes, rivers, islands, cities, flowers - it's all been done. How about we bring back HMCS Warrior or HMCS Magnificent. Or name them after our better Admirals and Generals like HMCS L.W. Murray; HMCS H.G. De Wolf; HMCS A.W...

Damn! I thought I would have stumped you guys for at least a couple of hours! M551 playing dress-up as a T-72 is right. You have the conch. MG

OK, what is this and what is it pretending to be? (Big hint there)

That looks like an M103 heavy tank. MG

Denel G6 - South Africa MG

The plane is a B-52H. MG

Nope. Have I stumped you guys!? I'll give you a hint. It's a Type-something and it ain't a tank. There weren't a lot of them made as they weren't very effective in their intended role. MG

No cigar...

Nope but you're on the right track. MG
