Okay, according to the Record, she still hasn't been christened yet.  Any news concerning that ceremony? https://www.therecord.com/news-story/8903517-future-hmcs-harry-dewolf-meets-water/

Ah, gotcha!

Yeah, it would be clumsy. Does anyone have any pics of the crest?  I can't find them anywhere.

Sweet!  Do they have her ship's crest designed as of yet?

Sweet!  Hopefully, they'll be ahead of schedule this time!

It's long ingrained... Attended Robert Land Academy in Wellandport ON (which hosted 2968 Army Cadet Corps) from 1980-84.  Joined the Lincoln and Welland Regiment as an ADM CLK 831 in 1985 and served there for the rest of my Grade 13, plus attended the summer MILCON in Petawawa.  Went into the...

:rofl: :rofl: Doubt I could publish something like that!

Thanks for making that clear to me.  Needed to know that for a fanfic story I'm writing.

One quick question (and apologies for starting up this chat again):  Will officers entitled to wear the CANSOFCOM DEU that came from RCAF or RCN be allowed to wear their old environmental rank insignia (pearl-grey for RCAF, black-trimmed-gold stripes with Elliot's Eye for RCN officers) or is it...

Would the Sôryû-class AIP type SSKs work just as good?  Lot cheaper than nukes.

Agreed.  Getting something like the Izumo would propel us back into the carrier business, give us a forward strike platform for whenever we get the F-35 and allow us to have a base ship for infantry assaults.  The crew compliment beyond the embarked troops is only double a CPF.

Have people been having issues getting into the DND website dnd.ca?  Every time I've tried for the last week or so, it takes forever to try to download something...and in the end, I get nothing.

Does anyone have a date for the planned launching?

Regardless of his original job, if the candidate is good in what he's elected to become, then it should be alright.  Not every celebrity is going to be like Twumpy is now.  :facepalm: As for the idiot in SC that got nominated, I'm sure the good people in that state will make the right choice in...

Just saw this article at the DND website: http://www.rcaf-arc.forces.gc.ca/en/article-template-standard.page?doc=from-tholthorpe-to-trenton-the-history-of-434-bluenose-squadron/jhf5kq9w 434 Squadron's coming back as a Test and Evaluation Squadron at Trenton.

Now that is nice.

Does anyone have pictures of the hat badge and collar dogs the rank and file wear with the new DEU?

I'm rather ambiguous concerning the issuing of a special "DEU" for the folks at CANSOFCOM.  Technically, it's not an independent service but a joint service command, so the fact that personnel from the Navy, Army and Air Force are serving in it should be acknowledged.  Everyone had either the...

Oi, there's such a thing as too much amalgamation here! Shades of 1968...!

That would actually be a good idea.  It saves the extra nearly thousand kilometre trip from Halifax to get to the area of operations and would be a extra boost to the local economy.  But given how narrow Saint John's Harbour would be, a wiser idea would be to reactivate the old Argentia base the...
