Hey Macqueen, talk about the Coriano club, wow that brings back sooo many memories, remember sexy sue?

Dire Straits, love em, also Mark Knofler solo stuff.

Wow, that sent me down memory lane, had to pull out my photo album. The Centennial Club in Lahr July 1989 "Tom Cochrane and Red Rider" and the after party at the "Zum Tavern" The Centennial club in Lahr Jan 1990 "Saga" and after party at "Zum Tavern"   "                "            "   ...

I think the NATO chief is Dutch (correct me if I'm wrong) the Dutch are right there doing Battle as well. Perhaps they look at numbers and feel that our 2500 soldiers is not as much as other contributors and use that to base their opinion. In the case of Canadian soldiers, it is not Quantity...

Will they try to fight head on, or will they blow themselves up in crowds of school children again..mmm Gnplummer421 :cdn:

Well you are right, he is a great guy. He did second line work for us in the field on the Tank guns, and we would try to get him to stay the night so we could kill a few braincells. (drinking was ok in those days) Cheers Gnplummer421 :cdn:

Uhmmm  Any Canadian team, but NOT the Leafs >:D Gnplummer :cdn:

It was probably a case where the "scum" were jealous of the young soldier, knowing full well that they could never be brave enough to do what soldiers do, therefore they had to make themselves feel better by ganging up on him. Gnplummer :cdn:

Greetings, I was curious to know whether there are Techs in A-stan, who are posting on this site. I am interested in finding out how our equipment is faring over there, specifically Guns. Cheers, Gnplummer421 :cdn:

I actually used to get quite excited when I had to do a major component replacement. I did a complete Gunners station one time for CAT 91, amazing how easily you can get parts when doing well in an international competition. Intead of it being trucked up to Graf, a helicopter brought it instead...

I guess my thought was meant to mean that a barrel is easier to replace than a life, so in that sense I felt it was good to have an effective tool such as that round to help the troops, but if it ends up hurting them then I guess I was wrong......

I remember a funny story about a Cupola lift on a Lynx when I was with the Hussars in Pet. One of the guys in the shop had undone the wrong bolts and when we lifted it up with the HIAB crane, the race ring ballbearings went flying, since the two rings separated, bit of a mess. Another thing I...

If I remember correctly, whenever we did a borescope on a Leopard barrel, we paid particular attention to the fume extractor vent holes, as wear would show in the form of small cracks there. However, when in a Combat situation, wearing out a barrel should not be an excuse not to use an...

One word: JACKASS Gnplummer421 :cdn:

1. People who talk alot but don't say anything, 2. Arrogant people, 3. Lazy teenagers who do nothing, and yet hold their hand out and expect money to magically appear in it, 4. Smokers who flick their cigs out the car window instead of using the ashtray, 5. People who are goody goodies on Sunday...

I don't know about releasing names to the public unless they are sex offenders. Granted drugs and the Military don't mix. One has to wonder about a guy hacking his way through a pot field in Afghanistan and goes "swoosh" this buds for me. ;) Although I am against drugs in the Army, I am a firm...

When I initiated this post, I had no idea I would end up learning so much. Thank you all for the education with regards to Native Affairs so far. Everyday I try to learn something new, but since I have been reading posts on this site, my knowledge base has increased substantially. Thank you...

Mmmm could have been one of the Csqn boys while fording somewhere in Deutchland....long ago.  ;D Gnplummer :cdn:

And driving into the water too fast will cause the tower to come off ;D Gnplummer421 :cdn:

Maybe with winter setting in, interest will wane on the part of the protesters, but I think the Natives in Ipperwash were there for a long time before the Dudley incident. The protest is undoubtably gobbling up significant resources from the OPP. With the locals becoming frustrated, I wonder if...
