    CAF Combat boots policy 2005-2018

    Yes it is. I think Loachman is in the closet about which element he actually is!

    CAF Combat boots policy 2005-2018

    This is why "Icing" an officer is so much fun. I actually had the privilege of sending a bottle of the stuff to a certain Col VIA Griffon supply drop on an ex one time. The caveat is once you have been iced, you have to snap a selfie while downing the sludge - proof for all the other officers...

    Hee hee... He said FFO 5 times... maybe he plays that shooter video game my son plays and wanted to say FFO to real men and women... Vern - you're both to me!!

    Drill (Parade) in FFO

    Too funny... Buttons, oh Buttons. At least you didn't say you were marching in Full FFO Order!! There are several people on this board that you don't want to "over exaggerate" around or they can eat you alive... ooops - you just woke them ALL up!! Buttons oh buttons.

    Nope. No brown boots. Well, I guess they do look kinda brown.... but the premis remains. We don't have to get yet another type of boot JUST for operations. One man one boot!

    Lol!! Iced is when you are handed a Smirnov Ice. As an officer AND a gentleman, you HAVE to drink it. Iced. Cake. Now THAT'S a true AF Officer thing!!

    Armed Forces Consider incentives to keep soldiers fit

    Slow down - the 3.2 Km in 19 mins was in reference to the old Warrior Training - 3.2 Km in FULL BATTLE RATTLE... 19 mins was a good time.

    Black doesn't conform to the AR (tan) combats we wear... one of the reasons we are supposed to be moving to a tan boot was to alleviate the need for another issued set to go overseas with - one boot all occasions (in theory)... Count your lucky stars we never rolled out that silly CADPAT boot!

    Haha!! Spoken like a TRUE air force officer! Maybe we should commission a committee for some research initiative on the merits of moving said corkscrew to a more amicable area. Or change the way wine bottles are corked... we could all get together at the Marriott in Jamaica for a week of...

    Armed Forces Consider incentives to keep soldiers fit

    I think the most important "incentive" in keeping a soldier fit is a job. In my opinion we have the Universality of Service for a reason. This is like the baseline. We obviously want to be better than that, try harder and not go through our career on cruise control, but the UofS is still the...

    Vac claim. Questions

    It was a fluke actually - I figured if the guy on the phone could see it then so could the office here. I was only going to convince them to let me SEE the decision on their computer, but the guy said he could do one better... and voila!

    Vac claim. Questions

    I went to the VAC satellite office here on base today. They were able to actually print out the decision letter and the payment authorization as well. I signed it and they faxed it then and there. I was told I would see a payment in 3-4 business days. It took a looooong time, but I am happy...

    Vac claim. Questions

    So quick update - VAC called me yesterday. They changed my "Coronary Issues" claim to " myocardial infarction" and re-opened it. I think it's a good thing. Also, I finally have a decision on my other two. He said "favourable" which I thinking is good, but couldn't tell me any more than that. He...
