Thanks for the eloquent response 3rd herd.  You are right that there is traditions in heroes in all, look at Tommy Prince, Frederick Topham et al. We all, regardless of regimental/branch affiliation have a tradition to carry on .

WOW, this topic is getting great. First of all, a couple of points of clarrification of me... I am a member of this roto, and from 5 GBMC, I also have been a member 1 CMBG and have been trained in Pet also (RCR Battle School for my JLC/JNCO). I will not get into facts of past tours of the...

Hi simysmom; It was our great pleausre to have you with us. Some of our members are already on the ground and as for myself I have another couple weeks to spend with my wife before we get to shake hands only. I passed the link for this post to RSM Horlick and CSM Richard, I am sure that they...

I hear that whistiling from those old country western movies.... ;)

Picture this if you will... walking home from CFMSS we observe a confused moving truck driver. We arrive a T-139 and see a gesticulating commisionnaire trying to explain to the driver that it is impossible that someone is moving all that stuff into his barracks. The girl in question arrives and...

I know that during my PMed QL5 course, we three single people were allowed to live off base since we were paying R&Q, all of us opted to stay in quarters. That being said, remember that part of the idea of living with your peers is the morale and intercourse help that is provided. If you are on...

I must reply , however I am drunk.... I agree on the facts of the tri-service...however we are a service which encompases three. therefore the req for tri-servise.

I agree like bzz that we (the CF) should mount a group of troops, tri-service, similarto the old guard in the states. In addition, being the nature of Ottawa to be quite touristy, mount the sentries year round. This "guard" should be chosen on a volunteer basis from the regs and res, and go to...

Note to PMeds, might be a good story to tell the guys leaving on tour... thanks Wes

Nice pics Moe, especially the one with Bob and Big Daddy D!!

Amen to that... leave them alone, for people on tour..call the PMed we got the tools and the training.

Well ladies and gentlemen, it was a great parade, longer than normal speeches however the streets were filled with.... wait for it.... Supporters  :salute:. One small group of protesters that I saw... got drowned out by a fellow soldier with a Harley (Vroom Vs Voice.... Vroom takes it!) A word...

And 4 PMeds!!! Anyway, Im sure those of us with TF will have updates later tonight and tomorrow after the parade. See you soon V2007! Hawk, the parade is early evening here, might be better off with the late night news. RDI is doing some live coverage(french newsworld) most of the evening.

Buzz...at least you didnt kiss the general! Did you notice that the general didn't take part in the "Military started" Wave!!!

I was at the Allouettes game last night and I can give one compliment to V2007, they were quite respectful in their protest.  They tried to give the front rank a copy of the letter (I think, I didn't take one although a couple people did out politeness... or they needed paper to spit their gum...

They also sent them into the civillian communities surrounding the base. So not only were soldiers targeted but also civilians.

With the amount of activities this week, I might be already overflowing in beverage. MCpls golf tourney, mess diner, Als game (be it I am the only one to record an english message for the game), then friday...whoooo hard on the pocket book!

I'm starting to look forward to friday! I hope to see these guys; maybe when they look into our eyes and see that their ideology, however misguided by the whole "wrongs" of the world, will not stop us from completing a mission that we beleive in. I truly believe that the people of Quebec will...

Well said BJR, truly well said. I believe you may have taken words out many of our mouths.  :salute:

Hit me hard... I'm leaving in a couple of months. Great song.... :cdnsalute:
