    Being a "Grey man", or blending in on course - [Merged]

    Forgotten_Hero Think, live and breath   "team",   achieve professional competence and help your team mates do the same. A helping word to the soldier beside you when they are struggling or forget something makes the "team" stronger. Don't try to make yourself look good, try to make the team...

    Won't Stand on guard for thee - a man's opposition to the Canadian flag & anthem

    Welcome to Army.ca I have seen the media use the focus of a story for dramatic effect rather report facts. To the point that even though I've been a witness I wasn't sure they were talking about the same event. Drama, conflict and disagreement, I think they figure they can't sell without it...

    Mountain Operations Course

    I'm wondering since bridging is out of the 3s, if it's someones grand plan to have the basic engineer be the equivalent of the old pioneer and just attach a couple to each section. Chimo

    Wet Weather Combat Boots: Use, Maintenance & Other Stuff.

    Good luck indeed, I'm a Res. Cpl. in the interior of BC and after being sized 3 times I still don't have them. I get the "not available" line and it's not my QMs fault, he isn't being supplied with them. I also just found out that I can't just exchange a pair of my black Cadillacs that have a...

    Mountain Operations Course

    What do you think of BMO/AMO being an Engineer task? Not exclusively, but attached Engineers performing that function for the Infanteers. Good idea, bad idea, indifferent?

    Recruiting Posters, Slogans and Commercials [Merged]

    So 10 or 12 of our heftier members get dropped off at Odark30 with a months worth of IMPs. I like it, we wouldn't want to miss out watching the challenges but what about the rewards? Being voted out of Meaford? How long before they turn to cannibalism, sorry you can't eat me, I've got a chit.

    Water Purification Blues?

    I didn't think this information would be classified but I suppose letting everybody and there dog know to many details is not a good idea. If it's ok to let me know, PM me, if not, oh well, I'll have to wait till I can get the course. Chimo

    Water Purification Blues?

    I have setup and maintained RO's in my civilian job and I'm curious about the two different ROWPU's. I hope someone who knows wouldn't mind answering a few questions I have about the units. What size and how many RO membranes are in the full size and mini units? What are the power requirements...

    Religion in the Canadian Forces & in Canadian Society

    "value and purpose" vs "valid argument" are subjective to the individuals involved. For myself I am not about to give up the Engineers prayer. Chimo

    coleman stoves and lanterns

    I talked to the WO this weekend, he is instructing our BMO course, and he said; If you can't get out, tuck yourself down into your liner and you'll be alright, I've been in two tents that went up completely and don't have a scar. He said that after the fires he was looking up at the stars and...

    As usual the Americans get nothing but love for their sacrifices....

    Not "forget", "Had more pressing matters"  or "grounded for maintenance"   ;) Maybe a few of the thousands of orphans would appreciate a safe nights sleep and a good meal. I'm sure they would feel special even with the paper plates. Chimo

    New Life Jacket Deployed With DART.

    Hi Cooper, I've used both and the old life jackets were of moderate quality and the ones we had were breaking down, also old ones were not actually "approved" flotation devices or life jackets. No forests out on the water but there is time spent on shore where camo may be helpful. Flat green...
