I goes back to WWII and it was done in the form of a flag hanging outside of the house. Blue Star for a serving family member, Gold star if one died. I don't think we need to start this north of the border.

Much prefer the old wool shirt. I have one here in Oklahoma i sport out on cool evenings and I have had quite a few offers for it. I also wore it on my BSERE and was pissed when I was told I couldn't wear it on my solo phase because it wasn't current issue. Itching isn't a problem. Its...

As I crawl out of my cave and roar an old dinosaur roar.  :warstory: This is all reminiscent of when the current issue rain gear came on line.  We were used to that old nylon crap or buying our own American Rain Gear. When were were finally issued it, we thought it was light years ahead of what...

His eggs aren't the only things thats fried! I 've got all the gucchi kit now if I eat enough I'll really look like a Rear Echelon Type. All that kit and no car. Does this look like the type of guy who wears his dogtags to the bar?!?!?!?!? and thats all I got  ;D

Out of context its quite funny..... I am sorry if you see it on the shelf but I can't give it to you because the computer says I have none in stock, or I can't give you one because we only have 6 left. ;D

Doing the C-17 course right now. And there is no requirement on this thing for an FE. Most of the training has been focused on load restraint and Emergency procedures. A little background on hydraulics and electrical, plus some of the systems. However its mostly geared to what we use in the...

It only took the DVA 40 years to come up and say something about the pension. And it was fast tracked for him.

I agree with Spring_Bok I actually thought the +1 posts explained lots WITHOUT wasting band width.  (Luke 1:20)  he was struck both deaf and dumb, as appears from his friends making signs to him, (Luke 1:62) which they had no need to have done, could he have heard: he was struck with...

My Father recently succomed to lung cancer. The DVA atrributed it to his service aboard the Tribal Class destroyers in the 1950's. HE was also aboard one of the ships in the 60's when the av gas blew on the Nippigon.  ( I think it was the Nippigon). So if anyone wants to use it as precendedce...

The two piece Tac Hel Flying suit! It was hot down here to day and we were doing some load exercises on the C-17. It took the top portion off and worked in my t-shirt while the Yanks, Aussies and Brits looked on in envy.

Hence the smiley at the end of the post. IE to be taken in jest.

save your money and have patience.

I am sure the two guys who involved were read the riot act even before they went out on the town. Decompression or not, where ever they had been or what ever they saw is irrelevant to the fact that they should have known better. Its incidents like these that brought the two beer per day perhaps...

When In Rome...... You will find, that on many deployments, we as Canadian Service Men and Women fall under the host countries laws. We are not above them and on your various in breifings the JAG will most likeley tell you so, basically we are SOL. This kid who is being beheaded, well he knew...
