I've always said that I'd go back in a heart beat.

And a nice leave centre it was.  Right on the beach, I wonder what that would cost to buy?

Old935Sgt, I worked out if Windhoek.  I was the guy that broke his leg parachuting in early August. 

I was a MCpl in transport on the first tour.  ArmyVern was a box kicker on the first tour as well.

That might be under the S&M thread.  ;D

I'm not dumping on anyone getting the SSM and for the Rangers that recieve them, good on them.  Don't read this as bashing any group, I'm looking for debate over the SSM.  Back to the original question, how about a bar for Domestic Operations (or a Domestic Operations Medal and award the Ranger...

OK.  So how about everyone else who does (unpaid) things in their communities that is above and beyond what we do on duty?  Should they get the SSM with a bar?  What bar? We shouldn't end (friendly) debate with "because the DHH and the GG says so".

Here's a question about the Special Service Medal, are we awarding it for the "right" reasons? If you read the criteria for the award http://www.mdn.ca/dhh/honours_awards/chart/engraph/chart_display_e.asp?cat=3&ref=SSM there is different spans of time and duties required for the award of the...

I know that this is a hotly debated topic but I would like to keep it in a historical context. I'd like to debate the current SWASM and the GCS and compare these with their historical counter parts. In World War 1, we had the 1914 Star and the 1914-15 Star (which the current General Campaign...

Some of the old guys from the late 70's to the mid 80's are trying to put together a reunion (of course otheres are welcome).  Stay tuned for further into or PM me.

Well said, Wes. 

I think it's from Napoleon.  He was talking about the adrenaline dump after battle when soldier feel the most tired.  They lay down and sleep while the enemy counter attacks.  I think Grossman talks about it in one of his books.

I've met him before, great guy. It's just that my supervisor at work mentioned that Toronto has around 23 officers getting ready for or on deployment and he was wondering how they were working the court issue.

For the cops in the crowd.  WHen we get on class B or C  inpreparation for deployment, how are your court appearences handled?  Do you return for court or have you worked something out with the crowns?

That was 19 years ago, wonder what they're up to now.  ???

Just catching up on this thread. Pedro was the course officer as an MWO on my SLC in Pet in 2003 (04?).  He really has't changed at all.  Frank Demane (sp?), last I heard was instructing in St Jean, but that was a few years ago.  Kim LaPointe was in the Lincoln and Wellend back then. Last...

Got tired of waiting for an answer, I went CIMIC.  It looks like a good go, so for now, I'm happy. ARG

I never see anyone from that tour.  Of course living in Windsor doesn't help.

Yeah, too dumb to get out I guess.

Is that “on paper” strength or is it parading strength?
