Rifle regiments already wear green for ceremonial purposes

If it is an issued piece of kit, you are required to fill out a Lost Kit Report. What you should do is inform your Section Commander and after the obligatory "Get a grip on your kit", he should be able to get the form. There is a section on the form that has to be filled out by supply and it...

I guess the solution to the problem is to run your guts out on the nice cushioned track, so you don't have to concern yourself with how others use their time on the treadmills

What a load.

If they aren't jumping, are they entitled to Jump Pay? If it's an allowance, its not a pay cut. Losing the maroon beret is a little draconian though.

That's why there are head lamps and strap on sneaker treads, are you soft?

What ever sells 'eh?

Gee, you make it sound like it's reservists are stealing your job. Damn immigrants

I have to agree with Gino, this is not a good poll. Because we wouldn't have a problem with recruiting sailors if the navy could bring back, the Press Gangs - a fine naval tradition. Then we could give them subs with holes in them. We could just get more sailors next Saturday night

Well, the 13k, cas evac and trench dig are the standard. as for runs, it is a crap shoot, some courses have no set program, they just run till some fall out.

Actually, reaching level 3 should make it easier to attain the army fitness standard, which is the 13 k etc. Following the twelve week program doesn't necessarily mean you will be at lvl 3 at the end. It depends on the level of fitness you start with. If not, do the program again. The levels are...

Actually, I doubt we would waste any resources on deserters. If they got in trouble with the law, we'd add that they were AWOL too.

Being a politican is suspect enough

I agree. Its not really a program anymore, and for some 35 rounds/ yr isn't going to make anyone a Battle Shot. **helmets on** I liked the days when we'd marched the 16 k's onto the range and did the run-downs, those who failed did it all again **helmets off**

I don't think it had anything to do with the recent "Don't call me a peacekeeper, I'm tougher than that.. :threat:" myth. Enough is enough. It probably has more to do with the philosophy of killing where a individual is more accepting to kill for their survival, than kill for killing alone...

zero. because only english and french are official.

Thats hilarious. From what I remember Hellyer started this new "unified force with an integrated approach". we are all embracing now. :D

I would like to see the possibility of being able to appoint the best person to cabinet, regardless of the political party affliation.

Personally, I would have liked the prime minister, to have said, ' nope, sorry, we don't take applications from across the floor. We can talk at the next election.' I do not think there should be any rules. Its all a game and unfortunately, the conservatives have just stumbled on the first...
