Oh man, would I love to pull out a slinky in class and hook it to a 522. So that solves the copper wire bit, but what is a Cobra head? You mean from the cobra headset? how? And any kind of coax?

I am teaching a class on improvised antennas and the MLP cites the use of coax cable and insulated copper wire, but doesn't specify what kind. Couldn't find it in the pam either. What sort do I need to make some demo antennas?

Hmmm, seems there is a guided version of our CRV7 as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRV7

Thanks guys, I'll look into that.

Is that permitted? I didn't see a number on the email. I'm almost looking at this like my buddy's police applications; if I bug them, they *will* loose my application. My Coy clerk suggested I wait till the new year and said if I resubmit, I'll be starting all over again.

is this anything like the army having to give back a bunch of cash a few years back when we were really tight for funds at the same time?

Yes, only this one trade. I've never submitted a CT before.

I've had my CT in since February and I started off with the mindset of this taking a long time. I figured 3 years start to finish. Got word in sept that they got my application in august (online application) and were currently working on march. I had been worried; hearing nothing that I might...

Wow, this again, huh?  interesting. This was going on back on the 60s-80s as well IIRC.

Is that the 3-shot metalstorm grenade launcher?

What info do I need to get my grand father's service record and stuff? I may not be able to find his service number, would name, corps (artillery) and birthday be enough?

I'd suggest anyone truely interested in this subject read Tom Kratman's Amazon Legion and The Amazon's Right Breast. These are probably the two best-thought out, most pragmatic works ever produced on the subject of training women for the military, including a "Ranger" course...

Yeah, I'll believe it when wolverine is still dead in a year or three

Put the heavy barrel on it and it should be fine for a GPMG, ROF is slow for my liking though. The M60 is no more out-dated than our C7s. It's WW2 technology, updated, improved and modified over the years. it's come a long way, almost as far from the original M60 as our C7A2s and C8s are from...

So i'm not just ignorant, not being able to find word-one on JT's defence policy? Shiny pony, really has none and Leslie is just a deflection from the fact?

I have some friends telling me that Justin Trudeau will be a better friend to the CF than Harper. Yeah, right. They insist that having Andrew Leslie on his staff proves this and claim to have read many articles on the subject. However, when I try to find these, I cannot find word 1 on JT's...

I'm not getting how they dutch are responsible for some deaths, but not others.

I am seeing more and more support for RAH's ideas all over. I agree with the attack helicopter comment above as well. A damn shame the AH-56 was cancelled, something like that would really close the CAS gap. As for the F-35...modern equipment in general, I have noticed a trend, as a weapons...

I move better and faster without it, I gain no emotional comfort from wearing it and I can do without carrying my own atmosphere around with me between my tunic and my chest. I'm a huge target already and the plates don't cover very much of my chest, or back. It wouldn't bother me at all, I...

Could we do anything about this? Engender an attitude of flexibility and tolerance as pertains to what we carry and body armour? Maybe i'm being overly optimistic.
