If not my own, then I'd have to say the 8oz. ribeye at the Marysburg steak pit/bar/hotel. Nothing like a good steak and a beer after a day of pushing bush!

Convenient post! I happen to be in the hungover state as I'm typing this. What I've found works well, aside from the need for water, is grapefruit. I've seen a few people posting that orange juice works well. Drinking takes a lot out of your system, so REHYDRATION and VITAMINS are my key...

I am going from the CIC to P Res world, you'll need a letter of referrence from the recruiting cell at the recieving unit, the local CFRC will request it. I think they'll also make a request from your CO for the same (remember, your CO is the CO of the region, not the CO or your corps). I'm a...

I was thinking perhaps South Korean gunners, but I'm not sure.

If you still live in the lower mainland then you have a few options. TartanTown is in Coquitlam http://www.tartantown.com/rentals.htm and a shop in Gastown that I'm unable to locate (I can't remember the name is why, but it's easy to find, East of Waterfront station a few blocks, North side of...

anyway, I've edited it, and we're not helping this lad who has no kilt!

Any decently made kilt will be over $400. I just ordered one for $500, and think it's quite a deal. What cut are you looking for? The kilt out there are for $150 through to $750 www.bearkilts.com but I personally don't like the cut of the cheaper one as it sits like a pair of pants and not...

The mission of the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Forces is to defend Canada, its interests and its values, while contributing to international peace and security. The mission of the Canadian Cadet Movement is to develop in youth the attributes of good citizenship and...

2332Piper, I agree that for combat operations the CIC are not a required component of the CF. But if you look at the mission statement of the DND and CF http://www.forces.gc.ca/site/about/mission_e.asp The mission of the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Forces is to defend...

I have a lot of christian friends, they've asked me at certain times to pray for them, for specific things. It doesn't mean that others are being neglected, just that I add something to my thoughts and prayers.

I've been unable to find the thread about recruiting that had links to various recruiting sites. I'm looking for one ad in particular that was for some balkan state's army. It was in english and very well done. One particular part I remember was "some days, you have to drive to (get to?) work"...

Canadians are superior? I and here I thought it was Illinios Nazis who were superior! :P

What an arse. If he was pragmatic, he would've applied for scholarships and bursaries. He ran away from the duty he swore to do. He promised legally to do as he was told, to be a soldier. You play the game, you take the pain, Cliches ad nauseum.

Infanteer, good posts. Is there some Canadian data you could direct me towards? And this is not indicative of my personal thoughts, but do you feel it necessary to have a CCW in Canada?

regarding your link TCBF, This guy went about resolving the situation poorly. If he had followed the instructions given to him and the same thing happened, he would have a stronger argument. I'm also fairly sure that legal documents need to be in black pen, nothing in pencil (or anything that...

Kyle Burrows, I also like that quote. One thing I noticed, the person who I thought had the most authority on the board has knowledge in U.S. History, not world history, or armed conflict history in particular. It does illustrate how uninformed people are and how willingly they fall into the...

GGHG_Cadet If you don't mention names {no names}, you won't (likely) get in trouble {no pack drill}

With that poster you'd also have more people on their way into the CFRCs as well.

Perhaps you could stick with with the opening line and cut out the middle, have a series of "you will" statements. Things like "you will be relied upon, you will be a new/stronger/better/faster person" etc. and perhaps end by reversing "you will" with "will you take the challenge/challenge...

Another great desktop. I'm glad to see stuff like this out there, seeing as the GMC ad set in WW2 gave me a bigger hard on for the forces than some of the CF posters  :P
