Radop - A late reply from me, but better than never I suppose. By "Looks good on ya" I meant looks good in the eyes of those who patrol day in/day out.  Some of the "front-liners" don't look too kindly on those who avoid the hard stuff and sit in camp with their feet up sipping java. I can...

Ok - here's what I have: 1) TCCCS Equipment Checklist  - http://dglepm.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/dlcspm/dlcspm_3/EquipCheckLists/eqpt_check_lists.htm Here you will find basically every configuration of truck or set of equipment.  You may have to see you local supply person to find out the AC...

Sorry if anyone finds this not of "C&E" relation, but it's where I normally post. If you've been to your Base Post Office lately, you may have noticed the photo of the Postal Unit CO on the wall (as is the case with any unit I suppose).  But why this photo would stand out from any other is up...

Have been having some trouble with posting from the DWAN lately.  Stay tuned and I'll post some info here after I e-mail myself the links. Bin

For all those interested, look for upcoming kit used primarily for LOS comms (UHF RR type stuff) to include the ability to use OTM (on the move)functions.  It's something that's being played with right now and could be making it's way to the "front lines" soon enough.  Uses an omni-d antenna to...

Hehehe.......sometimes where the rain gear goes - is not our own decision.  I've already come across a unit pack list that has the rain gear the same way radop has mentioned.  Maybe you'd like to tell the RSM/SSM on the next inspection where he can shove his rain gear.  ;D  "Actually Sir, I've...

Shame on me for not knowing the situation - but shame on him for speaking poorly without providing the rest of us with any info.  I'll reply to your post using the numbers you provided: 1) Mistakes are made at every level/trade (unfortunately).  I really hope that your friend doesn't make big...

Well Bull - you're on your own now.  I was with you on the fact that you weren't technically bitching before - but now your name may come back to haunt you, since all I read was "Bull".  Don't let the "Big R - Little R" issue cloud your thoughts.  Wait 10 years until you truly understand what...

I've seen some things on the DIN that can help. If nobody beats me to the punch, I'll post info on finding it next time I check my bookmarks from work. AS AR Bin

Arrrrgh........... I was just thinking about the Jubilee the other day - and I got mad.  Now that you've brought it up, guess I'll have my say. A waste.  Plain and simple.  "Oh wow - what did you get that medal for?"  "I got it because I wear a uniform and my name was picked out of a hat."  No...

I guess some would argue that a change from being a civilian to someone in uniform could be considered a promotion.  ;D But I do believe said Captain used the wrong term.  Good reminder to those of us that know better to correct small mistakes like these so "up and comers" aren't scratching...

Ok Radop - I'm with you on this one. Just think the youngins' are sometimes "cadpat with envy"  :P when they see someone else wearing the cool stuff.  Same as when a new vehicle comes into the system and all the young guys just NEED to get on the course.  I still remember when guys were dying...

What's the CF without a lil bitching - which I STILL haven't seen.  ::) And I think this guy was likely fed some wrong info through the chain.  We all know that sometimes just to shut someone up, a supervisor, etc. will feed you a line that's BS just to get rid of you.  Fact of life in the...

10 years?  No........has it really been that long?  Don't I remember having one and being ordered to turn it in about 5-6 years back.  Think we'd better call in some kit pros on this one.  JK My real question is this, 3C is the long sleeve shirt with sweater, no ribbons (obviously), no name tag...

I didn't see any bitching above.  Just somebody wanting to have the stuff that is newer and in some people's opinion, better than the old stuff.  Most of us do this. :warstory: "I'll take my web gear over that new crap anyday.  I remember when my webbing an I were crawling through the mud in...

So then, officers wear them as part of a dress reg - or because one wore them together years ago so others just carry it on.  ??? In any case, guy was no officer. Bin

So 3C is the V-Neck w/ long sleeve shirt, and no tie?  Heheh.  Saw a guy the other day with a tie on under his V-Neck.  I thought something looked out of place. Bin

Uhhhhh...............funkmeister........are you talking about a Net ID??  I've never heard of any "3 letter alphabetical code that id's a particular net.  Examples?????  Come on bro.  When you come into a C&E thread, at least make sure you know what you are talking about before making your...

That's embarrassing.  Am I the only one who finds that with all the new information getting pushed into their head a little bit of the basics seem to seep out every now and then?  I hope not. I so remember this term now.  Jeeze.  What next?  I'll forget my svc number??  :o I guess though that...

Well Vern, I'll remember to check profiles from now of before posting my replies. I remember one time I got an e-mail request from a Captain......let's just say Bloggins - can't remember the real name. So I called this Capt and left a voice mail, with the whole, "Sir, in response to your...
