    Vimy Ridge no-shows

    Just to be clear, Harper's going, HRH The Queen is going, it's Chirac, the French president who won't be in attendance. You're welcome, Chirac. But you're right...."It's not fair"  :crybaby: How many Canadian citizen's are paying their own way to commemorate this event?  The freakin'...

    Brits Balk at RAF Kamikaze Plan

    I think you might want to take a closer look at the scenario: It was a decision making discussion, not a policy statement.  It was in the nature of either sacrificing an air asset (and the pilot onboard) in exchange for saving a high value/heavily populated target or seriously degrading he...

    Tarps/Grounsheets

    I almost always carry a tent (bivi if solo) and a tarp when camping...Siltarps are the cat's meow, but a little pricey if you're looking for occasional use.  I've also carried one of the silvered tarps (not the "space blanket" but similar) on some trips...depends on weight etc. I've hootched it...

    Swiss Army Worries About Thousands Of Recruits Unfit For Service

    I spent a night bending an elbow with a couple of recently released Swiss troops last spring, It depends on the reason they can't perform...I know one fellow mentioned that failing the medical for avoidable reasons (such as non-medical fitness issues or prior drug use) was NOT an acceptable...

    All things CF98 (merged)

    I, too, was going to push the "report to mod button" on this, too, as well as post the generic MSN Speak warning. Then it hit me, cover your @ss. Misunderstandings happen, I'm sure it wasn't intentional. On topic, fill out the report.  It's ten minutes out of your day, and MVC soft tissue...

    The Former CFB Chilliwack - Whats Happening

    They're also getting some "old" sappers back to BC as the RSS/RFC/TLA of the day, which is really great to hear, some excellent corporate experience, and some "old" sappers getting back to their youthful haunts   >:D I've heard Teddy is one of them, but I've already forgotten the names of the...

    The Former CFB Chilliwack - Whats Happening

    At the moment (unless it's already changed  ;D) it's functioning as a troop of 6Fd. It will be a stand alone Engineer Support Squadron once they've met some recruiting targets and finished getting their infrastructure in place.  That will give BC two Fd Eng Sqns (6 and 44), an ESS, and the...

    Hypertonic saline dextran (HSD)

    I suspect Gully's refering to the fact that he humps his kit pretty far, too.  I know I couldn't do his job, maybe one small aspect of it, but it's the getting to the Pt that'd kill me. As to it being used on civies, it's being trialed on civies, in a multi-site double blind trial.  I think...

    Hypertonic saline dextran (HSD)

    You got it, Gully. I'm not surprised you're not using it, but if you're in BC you may see it.  We use it on civies, too ;D, and I should say I was surprised as heck when it first came out and I was told patients didn't have the right to refuse...that's since been amended.

    Hypertonic saline dextran (HSD)

    BC Amb has recently restarted our HS/HSD/NS double blind clinical study.  It was halted because we hadn't made adequate arrangements for monitoring of the patients at the tertiary care centers, and hadn't included the right to refuse enrollment for conscious trauma patients It's also being...

    I have a few questions for you fine gentlemen and/or gentlewomen

    Hi Wason, if you try a search in the recruiting forum, you'll probably find all of your questions have been answered a couple of times already.  If not, I'm sure a friendly mod will point you in the right direction fairly soon. With regards to the final deadline for applications, it's a rolling...

    Battlestar Galactica (Beware....Possible SPOILERS! read at your own risk)

    I was thinking about how many kids those 4 had already had...didn't the Chief have a kid recently? And is Pres Roslyn hearing the music due to the cylon transfusion she got, a halucination from the drugs, or is she the fifth? Nice plot twist, if both presidents were cylons. Inquiring minds...

    Civilian Medical File Required

    Davidson 25: CFRC may ask for a letter from a civilian specialist...that specialist may need to review your medical history prior to releasing said letter.  This is almost always done if there's any question of the applicant not meeting Common Enrollment Medical Standards (CEMS) for reasons...
